AR-Sen: Senate Dems Intentionally Delay Lincoln's Proposed Reforms
Remember way back before things got ugly, when Blanche Lincoln ran this ad: “I don’t answer to my party; I answer to Arkansas.” Interesting. You see, I would assume that someone who doesn’t answer to her party would similarly not…
AR-Sen: "Lincoln’s cynically dishonest campaign" Costs Her At Least One Vote

The Arkansas Times tried to have a live feed of tonight’s AR-02 Democratic debate, but was unable to due to technical difficulties. Thankfully, the most adept candidate in this race in terms of technology and social media, John Adams, is…
AR-02: More Commercials
I’m starting to feel like a TV critic over here, but ’tis the season for 30-second nuggets about goals, achievements, and sandwiches, so I press on. First up, Joyce Elliot’s second ad: I think the “isn’t like the rest…Joyce Elliott…
AR-Sen: Lincoln's Proposed Reforms Seriously Flawed
With just one week to go until the May 18, 2010 preferential primary, I think it’s fair to say that the Bailout Blanche Experience versus Dollar Bill and The Outsourcers has been a conflict not seen since Wyld Stallyns bested…
