| Madeline Rogero has thrown down the gauntlet, making another bid to become Knoxville's mayor, as she did seven years ago. I'm not surprised because I've seen her tenacity firsthand.

A well-known ward heeler approached Rogero during that first Commission campaign and told her to "Take that campaign money and buy yourself something nice to wear, because you can't win this race." Win she did, however, by wearing out shoe leather... |

| I was on vacation last week, but nearly interrupted it when I saw the from D.C. public relations firm Clarus, touting the results of its new survey. "PALIN SUPPORT FOR GOP NOMINATION SINKS," the headline blared, followed by this lead paragraph: A new nationwide survey of Republican voters finds that support for former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin to win the GOP's 2012 presidential nomination has fallen by one-third since March, sliding from 18 points to 12 points. Palin is now running in fourth place for the nomination behind former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich. The release has several lessons to teach us about how to... |

Both parties say their proposals are necessary to boost a still-shaky economy. The issue is expected to come to a head when Congress returns from its summer break in mid-September. It's already a point of contention in California's U.S. Senate race between Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer and Republican... |

| President Barack Obama spoke out publically on the New York mosque plans during a White House dinner on Friday. Photograph: Scott Applewhite/AP For a moment there, even what the White House calls the "professional left" was delighted with Barack Obama. On Friday night, speaking at a White House-hosted iftar – a sunset dinner celebrating the Muslim holiday of Ramadan – Obama finally addressed the controversy around the building of an Islamic cultural centre in lower Manhattan: Recently, attention has been focused on the construction of mosques in certain communities – particularly New York. Now, we must all recognize and respect the sensitivities surrounding the development of Lower... |

| Asked which big-name celebrity they would most like to have campaign for them, here’s what the two Republicans vying to become Rhode Island’s next governor — Victor Moffitt and John Robitaille — had to say last week.

A darling of the Tea Party movement and the conservative wing of the national GOP, Palin gets frequent mention as a potential 2012 presidential candidate even though a recent survey by Pew Research / National Journal suggests that Palin — and the Tea Party — may... |
