It’s time for the media and Democrats to acknowledge that Democratic gubernatorial candidate Walt Maddox is in the last gasps of a dying campaign. Recent polls continue to show that the Tuscaloosa mayor is down, and down big. ALFA: Maddox – 36% Ivey – 56% NBC/ Survey Monkey: Results from the poll found that 51 […]

On September 20, it was 80 degrees in Monroeville. The humidity was 86 percent. Men gathered for an event staged by the county’s Republican Party in front of the old courthouse in the city’s town square were sweating through button-down dress shirts. For a late September afternoon, it was fair to say that it was […]

7. Amazon decides to raise their wages to $15 an hour, blowing a hole in the argument that government should force it — Amazon is clearly caving to political criticism, much to the benefit of their employees.

Long-shot Alabama Democratic congressional candidate Tabitha Isner wants to raise your taxes. Granted, she won’t say it like that. Instead, she will argue we need to end the tax cuts. This argument is quite different than most Democrats were arguing during the debate over these tax cuts, they were arguing that the tax cuts were permanent for business and only […]

7. The Alabama Education Association continues to care about everything but education — The Alabama Education Association is actually complaining about the Alabama Accountability Act because they don’t like that the bill identifies failing schools as “failing,” but the bill only identifies six percent of schools that way, a total of 67 schools out of 1,600+. — WBRC reports the […]

Alabama’s schools as a whole are not good. By any metric you want to use, the state’s schools in totality are near the bottom of the barrel. Yet, in spite of this, the once-dominant entity in modern Alabama politics, the Alabama Education Association (AEA), continues to demand that we maintain the status quo. Charter schools? No. Vouchers? […]

7. Pro-life group pounds Democratic gubernatorial nominee Walt Maddox on his “disingenuous” position on abortion vote — Alliance for a Pro-Life Alabama alleges that Maddox is attempting to do what most pro-life Democrats in Alabama do: mislead the public. — Maddox’s interpretation of the law is incorrect, in the Fair Ballot Commission’s opinion, which is available at […]

There is no way the majority of people screaming about Brett Kavanaugh being a sexual assaulter truly believe what they are saying. If they did, they would not be grasping at absurd straws. They wouldn’t be pretending the lack of a date, time and place proves the allegation to be true. See below:

7. American companies choose immigrants over American labor because it is cheaper — Some break the law — The Department of Labor found that Cisco helped foreigners get visas instead of hiring United States citizens for certain jobs and then paid the foreign labor less than the Americans they passed over. — This is not unique […]

In a hilarious piece at Alabama Political Reporter entitled, “Walt Maddox has lost his mind,” Alabama’s saddest fake-mad columnist Josh Moon promotes the idea that Democratic gubernatorial nominee Walt Maddox is out there telling the truth to a “bunch of hillbillies” in Alabama. An excerpt from Moon’s column:

7. Republicans who hate polls will love the latest Gallup poll that shows Republicans at their highest favorability in seven years  — Forty-five percent of Americans view the Republican Party positively, which is a nine-point gain from last September’s poll. It is the highest since the party registered a 47 percent favorability rating in January 2011 […]

If Republicans give in to Democrat dirty-tricks, media misinformation, last-second garbage and Michael Avenatti, they will deserve every single thing they get. Our caretaker junior Senator Doug Jones is not a senator if we aren’t told all the allegations against Roy Moore were “credible,” as long as credible means they all said the same thing. The […]

7. An economist at Troy University says that Alabama should bet on sports betting — Daniel Sutter’s main argument is the obvious argument for sports gambling.

At this point, to any fair-minded person watching the slow-motion disaster happening in Washington D.C., it is beyond crystal clear that the accusations against Judge Brett Kavanaugh are questionable at best. That reading is charitable to the “victim.” What is obviously more likely is the fact that she is lying. If she is not lying, Democrats […]

7.

They argue it amounts to a decision to “discriminate against” citizens. — President Donald Trump was sued […]

Make no mistake: the media and Alabama Democratic gubernatorial nominee Walk Maddox want a debate. They have made it their main campaign plank from day one of the general election campaign. He insists that Governor Kay Ivey must debate him, and that to do otherwise is cowardly or, more recklessly, a sign that she is unable […]

Alabama Democrats love bad ideas. They also have no clue how to pay for these terrible ideas, even though some have tried to figure it out, bless their hearts.

When Doug Jones beat Roy Moore to become Alabama’s junior Senator for a few years, a message was sent to politicos all over the country: Any allegation, from any time period, will be treated as absolute fact. Discrepancies won’t matter. Plotholes won’t matter. Denials won’t matter. The words “credible allegation” is bantered about as if there […]
