I’ll be doing live commentary on the Romney speech on MSNBC starting a 10am (EST) and will be on CNN again in the 1:30 hour.

I’m not sure I should be as pleased by this as I am. But I am. One of my daughters is learning pre-algebra. She’s 12 and loquacious and isn’t a big fan of her math teacher. Yesterday, the teacher was explaining “correlation” and said it was the same thing as “cause and effect.” Laura raised…

I like Mike Huckabee the politician. He’s affable, funny, positive, and has a broad definition of what it means to be a conservative. He thinks, for instance, it is sound policy to ensure that poor children are insured. He would never have vetoed SCHIP legislation that expanded health care coverage for lower-income children. He doesn’t…

When Gov. Romney gives his speech tomorrow, there are certain things that he must say. And there are certain things that he cannot say. The problem is that he cannot do both. The reason? Mormonism is not Catholicism. When JFK gave his famous faith speech in 1960, he was doing so as a member of…

I caught a few minutes of a chat on a major news network tonight between four of their reporters. It offered evangelical Christians with plenty of grist for their belief the mainstream media is either out to get them or is vastly ignorant about who they are.

Maybe Jesus answered yesterday’s question a long time ago when he told the story of Lazarus and the rich man. Note his last line. “There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores…

Do people really want God? I mean do we, today, in our enormously rich country surrounded by standard amenities like hundreds of television channels, this Internet, shopping, food, cars, celebrities really want God? I’m not talking about god – about gods of wealth or gods of power or gods of celebrity or even gods of…

In an earlier post I said I thought Giuliani was unraveling and: I think details of his affair with Judith Nathan while he was mayor will emerge and a lot of Republicans will begin to wonder how, exactly, his behavior differed from Bill Clinton’s when he was in office. I just read this comment from…

Rudy has had a bad, bad week. There was the story alleging misuse of expenses while he was mayor. There was the unfortunate exchange with Romney to begin the debate. There was the campaign’s rather week rebuttal to the Politico story. And now there is this story out today: In almost every appearance as he…
