Bozell Column: A Dreadful Media Campaign
Throughout the very long presidential election cycle, two trends remained consistent. The media lauded Obama no matter how horrendous his record, and they savaged Obama’s Republican contenders as ridiculous pretenders.
From the start of the Republican race in 2011, every candidate who took the lead then took an unfair beating. They even slimed Sarah Palin in case she decided to run. Martin…

Obama to Voters: Bring Your ID
As voters cast their ballots to decide the future direction of the country, President Obama encouraged people to go our and vote – and bring their ID’s along with them.

Haley Barbour: It Was a Mistake to Have Liberal Media Moderate GOP's P
During a November 6 chat with MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell in which he handicapped the election, former Mississippi Gov.

Cal Thomas Column: So What's Next
Presidential elections decide only who wins the White House and a congressional majority. They don't by themselves solve the nation's problems. George W. Bush had a majority Republican Congress and did little with it. President Obama had a majority Democrat Congress during his first two years in office, but appeared to let ideology trump solutions, causing additional harm to the economy.
