Ted Cruz for Senate
Under The Marble Arch
"I slept and dreamt that life was Joy.
I woke and saw that life was Duty.
I acted, and behold, Duty was Joy."
–Rabindranath Tagore

"The skepticism about human rationality that science inspires should not be taken as support for authoritarianism or paternalism… On the contrary, it should render questionable all claims to wise and disinterested leadership, including those of America’s own altruistic progressive technocrats who propose policies to “nudge” the unenlightened masses into doing the right thing. It makes more sense to think of our leaders and intellectuals as half-crazed hooting howler monkeys — just like the rest of us."
–Michael Lind, Salon, August 23,2011
“Seeing what isn’t there is half the job of being on the Left. The other half is changing what isn’t there through costly, intrusive, and ill-conceived initiatives (save 10 percent for keeping Charlie Rangel out of trouble).” -Abe Greenberg, October 9, 2009
 “To date, what non-Obama voters see, and fear, is a candidate content to coast to the nomination and then conduct a blandly conservative campaign. They want a more substantive choice than that. They want to have it out over the worth or danger of Barack Obama’s ideas. They want the chance to ratify Washington’s enormous long-term claims on the country’s wealth, or decisively reject them." – Daniel Henninger, WSJ, July 21, 2011

Honorary GOP Party Chairman

DateTuesday, September 13, 2011 at 07:40AM

There is no such title or person, yet.  But if their were nominations, Kinde Durkee would be on the short list.  Call it a cosmic balancing of the books, but it looks like whatever Michael Steele was blowing on staff outings to kinky lounges and private jet-setting, Ms. Durkee was squirreling away on the Democrat side.  Money quote,

Feinstein said she and her campaign staff have been unable to access all their bank records at this point because Durkee alone controlled access to the account, which has made it difficult for them to assess how much money is gone.

So, in other words, the campaign was run in exactly the same manner that Democrats run the federal government, except that contributions to Democrat campaigns are generally regarded as voluntary (I know, I know: "pay to play the Chicago way" notwithstanding.)  As an added Schadenfreude bonus, Feinstein wasn't the only fleecee.

I say we establish a legal defense fund for Ms. Durkee. I hope she gets a Republcan lawyer.
