The website for my book on the 2008 election, An Election to Remember, is now live. It will be updated with reviews, sample chapters, press material and a Q&A section. I decided to purchase two domains in case people forgot “an” in the title: anelectiontoremember.com and electiontoremember.com. Both of them will work and provide you [...]

As an author, you want to reach as large of an audience as possible. That’s why I’ve been working to get my e-books sold on more than just Amazon.com and Smashwords.

Senator John Kerry lashed out at the media today for their constant news coverage obsession with Rev. Wright and his recent string of interviews. And even though according to the L.A.

Maybe Hillary Clinton and John McCain should become running mates? Not only are they using the same talking points against Obama on the campaign trail, they’re proposing the same plans! Weeks after John McCain announced a plan to cut an 18 cent gasoline tax that would do little to save people money on $4 gasoline, [...]

The race for the Democratic nomination is coming to a close. As the likely nominee, Barack Obama leads in every possible metric: popular vote, delegate count, number of states won, number of primaries won, and number of caucuses won. World War I was dubbed “The War to End All Wars”. Indiana is shaping up to [...]
