Paul Krugman, who has a steady job penning Bush-hating diatribes in the New York Times, attempts to claim that Al Gore’s delusions about the “weird media” are true. He argues for stopping the few conservative voices in the liberal media by applying draconian government-bureaucrat measures to silence the voices of the people.

When reading rants like this, it’s hard to stay calm. I can only take consolation from the fact that we’re going to deliver a staggering blow to liberals in 2004. And in Peter Mulhern’s Liberal Cocoon theory.

I hope someone’s collecting the “Republicans have it all; so now they’re responsible for everything that goes wrong” statements from Democrats. The GOP can use those statements in 2004, when the economy’s soaring and the war aginst Osama Bin Laden and Saddam Hussein has been immensely successful.

Louisiana football fans won’t have an LSU game to go to on December 7, the Senate race run-off date. That should bring out some more Terrell voters.

There’s a new, independent, Louisiana Senate poll that, I think, is quite accurate. When registered voters are considered, it shows Landrieu leading Terrell 45-31, with 22% Undecided, Don’t Know or Won’t Say. However, when likely voters are weighted by demographic, Terrell leads with over 50%.

One interesting number from the poll is that blacks plumped 73-5 for Landrieu, while whites favored Terrell 42-33%. It’s very difficult for Landrieu to get more than 35% of the white vote; so I’d anticipate most of the undecided white voters (25%) going for Terrell

Al Gore is the latest to take on conservative media outlets:

The numbers show that the economy is doing better than expected. Call me nuts; but I think that the clear GOP victory on election night will do a lot to propel the confidence of American enterpreneurs and send growth soaring in the next couple of quarters. Witness how the success in Afghanistan did the same early this year, when growth hit a breakneck 5%.
