Palin-mania: Catch It!

There’s lots going on here at both the Southern Republican Leadership Conference and in the French Quarter this weekend in New Orleans, but here’s the big thing that happened yesterday in the Big Easy on the shore of the Big Muddy:

If John Ensign REALLY Wanted to Become Better

Scandal-ridden Sen. John Ensign again blew off calls for his resignation yesterday, telling the Las Vegas Review-Journal that he has “learned a great deal from this and I am trying to become a better person, a better husband, a better father, a better friend and a better senator.” Ensign later added, “I am trying to […]

As the Ensign Turns

While Rep. Dean Heller, Nevada Republican, wouldn’t actually use the “Resign!’ word, he pretty much said “Resign!” in his comments about embattled Sen. John Ensign, Nevada Republican, this week. He said as much to Jon Ralston on “Face-to-Face” Wednesday. “You think (the ongoing Ensign investigations are) hurting the state, the effectiveness of the delegation to […]

Nevada John and the Temple of Boom

Sen. John Ensign, Nevada Republican, now resembles the political equivalent of a suicide bomber. The explosive he has wrapped around skivvies is what appears to be an inevitable indictment over his cover-up efforts of his under-the-covers romp with a woman not his wife. And he doesn’t seem to care one wit how many people he […]

Mini-Muth’s Truths: April 7, 2010

• The Wall Street Journal reports this morning that automaker GM – which now stands for “Government Motors” thanks to the Harry Reid/Barack Obama takeover/bailout – “posted a $4.3 billion loss for the second half of 2009, in the first official accounting of the auto maker’s balance sheet since the company emerged from bankruptcy protection.” […]

Mini-Muth’s Truths – April 6, 2010

• Kicking off a rural tour from his childhood home in Searchlight on Monday, Sen. Harry Reid said, “If Obama fails, our country fails.” Not. If Obama SUCCEEDS, our country fails. That’s why Reid and Obama must be defeated.

Mini-Muth’s Truths: April 5, 2010

In addition to joining us for Citizen Outreach’s monthly First Friday Happy Hour last Friday, former Arizona Congressman J.D. Hayworth, now running in a GOP primary against Sen. John McCain-Feingold, stopped by for an interview with our friend Jon Ralston on “Face to Face.”

The Hunt for a New Nevada GOP Chief

(Chuck Muth) – With the resignation of Chris Comfort as chairman of the Nevada Republican Party – or as he “rebranded” it, the Republican Party of Nevada (brilliant!) – the GOP needs to find and elect a new chief at its May 15th meeting in Reno. Who will be the sacrificial lamb?

Muth’s Truths: April 3, 2010

Biggest….crowd….ever. Last night’s First Friday Happy Hour at Stoney’s featuring J.D. Hayworth, the conservative former congressman running against John McCain-Feingold in Arizona, easily shattered all FF attendance records, perhaps as many as 500 people. And I suspect next month’s crowd will be even bigger….as we have tentatively schedule not one, but two conservative mega-stars. Who […]

Memo to Nevada Republicans: Forget Voter Registration

The Nevada Secretary of State’s office released voter registration numbers yesterday which show Democrats continuing to enjoy a 64,000-voter lead. Republicans shouldn’t sweat it. In fact, the smart thing would be to ignore it….for now.

Muth’s Truths: April 2, 2010

The Nevada Republican Party has scheduled a special meeting for Saturday, May 15, 2010 to elect a new chairman. The meeting will be held at the Siena Hotel in Reno.

Muth’s Truths: March 31, 2010

Captain DisComfort made it official yesterday, finally announcing that he was stepping down as chairman of the Nevada GOP “due to business and family reasons.” Just as predicted. The real reason, of course, is that the guy was good at only one thing: blowing smoke up everyone’s skirt. And it finally caught up to him […]

Muth’s Truths: March 30, 2010

• About ten to fifteen years ago, the word “liberal” was almost like a curse, so the Left made a concerted effort to eliminate using the word in politics and campaigns. Instead, they renamed themselves “progressives.” It’s rare today to meet a Democrat politician who will admit to being a liberal even if they’re as […]

Probably Wasn’t a Good Idea to Drag Me Into this One

Here’s what Tea Party of Nevada U.S. Senate candidate Scott Ashjian sent to “Face to Face” host Jon Ralston this afternoon in response to those Tea Party Express television ads calling Ashjian a “fake” and telling him to “get lost.”

Scott Ashjian, Tea Party Crasher

Outsiders who aren’t part of the tea party movement can’t seem to understand why most tea party activists are so opposed to the formation of the Tea Party of Nevada (TPN) party in Nevada – and especially the candidacy of this poseur Scott Ashjian, TPN’s pretty-boy candidate for U.S. Senate.

The Further Misadventures of “Chemtrail” Jeff

There are hard-core Ron Paul supporters who will never get over the 2008 Nevada Republican convention. In their made-up minds, then-GOP Chairman Sue Lowden was the bad guy and nothing will ever convince them otherwise. But as we all know, there are always two sides to every story. The other side of the story is […]
