Remembering history the way they wished it had been
Bored To Mild 
Further backwash from the failure of “An American Carol” to attract actual audiences:
Dennis Hopper now free to drop his right-wing wierdo guise to don some other kind of weirdo guise and endorse Barack Obama.
Hugh Hewitt: Leg Man?     
Indomitable or perverse: You make the call. Like his mentor Richard Nixon, former Nixon Library Executive Director Hugh Hewitt will not accept defeat.
His mash note to Mitt Romney couldn’t save the Latter Day Hope, and the next horse Hewitt chose to ride is faltering.
#1: He Lost 
The Townhall impresario’s latest attempt to serve the cause and himself has stalled, with publishers so far rejecting his proposed  How Sarah Palin Won the Election … and Saved America quickie book.
Who Is This Fancy Walter Annenberg? 
…and why did he pay for Chicago Reds like Barack Obama and William “Billy” Ayers to run wild?
The McCain campaign is super excited at all the play it is getting on Barack Obama’s 
 Red Ruffian friends, to the point where it isn’t even trying to make sense.
McCain’s breathless release headlines, “The Obama Campaign Claims Not To Know Details Of Ayers’ Relationship”
…before serving up heaping helpings of Fox News excerpts, with no real effort to explain their time, date or place, much less that of the events they pretend to discuss.
Then, deeper and deeper into the mysteries of “Annenberg.”

“And this was directly funded by Annenberg?”
Kurtz: “Oh, yes.”
Griffin: “Under Obama’s chairmanship?”
Kurtz: “Oh yes”
Who is this sinister Annenberg? Mob scion, ambassador, 
  dead friend of Presidents, before he died Walter Annenberg sought respectability by dumping much of his fortune into multiple foundations, one of which engaged Obama and Ayers.
Who is this Kurtz?  
The “conservative scholar” hangs his hat at the famed Ethics & Public Policy Center, the former home of Eliot “Mr. Kenilworth” Abrams. Kurtz has grown into his role as relentless Ayers pursuer, leaving behind his youthful flirtations with big think on terrorism and a prolonged period as “the ‘EverReady Bunny’ of the same-sex marriage debate“
Reagan: Better Read 
Our gal chose to close last night quoting the sainted Ronald Reagan [after earlier misattributing “city on a hill” to Reagan, rather than John Winthrop, whom he quoted.]
And magnificent words they were. The empty vessel that is Sarah Palin, already caught channeling FDR assassination fans on the glories of small town life, was pumped up with yet another oddity from the Republican party’s controversiall past.
As was widely noted, Palin’s closer was lifted from Reagan’s “Operation Coffee-cup” crusade against Medicare, back when it was the opening wedge of socialism.
He Says She Said 
Widespread mirth at Daddy McCain’s plea to Ms. Curic for a Palin test makeover has blocked attention to Daddy’s effort to fix Sarah Palin’s Place In History.
And what a place setting it is! Apparently, Palin isn’t just the New Reagan, she’s the New Clinton as well!
  
 
“This is not the first time that I’ve seen a governor being questioned by some quote, ‘expert,’ “Daddy sputtered.
