George Wallace was right

For some of us who are long in the tooth, we can recall that when George Wallace ran for president as a third-party candidate, he often said “there was not a dime’s worth of difference between Democrats and Republicans.

Will a final display of arrogance be Worley and Reed’s undoing?

Nancy and Joe messed up. A few days before a breakaway group of Alabama Democrats held their “official meeting” of the State Democratic Executive Committee on Saturday in Montgomery, Nancy Worley and Joe Reed dismissed the whole affair.

Alabama Dems’ pathway to relevancy: Alabama workers

There is nothing Alabama Democrats can do about Republican supermajorities in this very red state. Have you heard that one? I have. Heard it repeatedly, in fact. Hell, the leadership of the Alabama Democratic Party said it recently, as it attempted to justify its pathetic inaction — and subsequent tail-kickin’ — in last year’s midterm … Continued

Through media attacks, border agents continue fight

The border agents, military and law enforcement personnel at our southern border are doing their best in difficult circumstances to combat both illegal immigration and attacks from Democrats and the national media.

New data indicates that Democrats will have to do better with rural voters to take back control of the Senate in 2020

Tuesday, One Country Project (OCP) released new, original data they claim shows the correlation between Presidential and Senate election outcomes, proving the Democratic road to victory is contingent upon rural support.
