At AP, GOP's Mayoral Win in Nation's 13th-Largest City a Local Story

The idea that the nation's largest cities are impenetrable Democratic Party strongholds took a serious hit Tuesday night.

Slate's Saletan: 'ISIS and the GOP Are in Perfect Harmony'

On Tuesday, I wrote that "Every day seems to bring in at least one new example of alleged journalists who are really propagandists insisting that what is obviously false is true."
