Senate races: What the money says

Tradesports is the Internet site that brokers bets (or futures contracts) on just about everything, politics included. Donald Luskin has a good explanation of how the Tradesports futures contracts work in a column on the betting on the North Korean long-range missile test ("Tradesports' bad call").

The Tradesports betting line introduces a reality principle that is lacking in, say, any given Star Tribune Minnesota Poll. At present, if I understand the betting line correctly, the odds of the GOP losing the House are roughly the same as the GOP retaining its majority in the Senate.

What about individual races? From the perspective of the GOP candidate, I'll divide them into Favorites, Underdogs and Long Shots. As of this moment, here's what the money says (per the last traded futures contract) in the Senate races that have attracted most attention (ours and others'):

Favorites:

George Allen, Virginia (72)
Bob Corker, Tennessee (65)
Jim Talent, Missouri (59)

Underdogs:

Tom Kean, New Jersey (37)
Michael Steele, Maryland (30)
Conrad Burns, Montana (25)

Long Shots

Rick Santorum, Pennsylvania (12.7)
Mike DeWine, Ohio (8.5)
Mark Kennedy, Minnesota (7)

The Tradesports betting line also places our favorite governor, Minnesota's extremely successful Tim Pawlenty, in my Underdog category (33), trailing Democratic challenger Mike Hatch. It is a line that indicates to me how strongly the headwinds are blowing against Republicans this year.

JOHN adds: For those who may not be familiar with Governor Pawlenty, my friend Graydon Royce has a nice profile of him in today's Minneapolis Star Tribune.

SCOTT adds: I've added what is certainly one of the most important Underdog races to my list, Tom Kean's in New Jersey. The omission was an oversight.

Bush-Hating Kids in "Progressive" California Ad

A “progressive” group called the Courage Campaign, with links to MoveOn.org and a host of other far-left moonbats, is running one of the more despicable campaign ads I’ve seen in California—sheer Bush Derangement lunacy, parroted by children.  link: 129 comments " Who can criticise kids? (the disabled, the diseased, the afflicted).
How long before the Lepers denounce Bush?" Making this ad even more distasteful: Proposition 85, one of the propositions this ad opposes, seeks to overturn current California law that allows girls as young as 12 to have an abortion without notifying their parents. "I've witnessed 9 and 10 year old girls that have been to Planned Parenthood summer camps. They are the scariest little girls I have ever seen. Planned Parenthood sponsors them for a few weeks. The girls are trained in abortion rights activism. They are encouraged to call into radio programs to espouse their beliefs. I heard one call into C-Span "Washington Journal" one time. The girl said she was 10 years old. She expressed the opinion that "George Bush is not my President and he has no right to control my uterus." The guests on the show were dumbfounded. Even the pro-choice lady was shocked...don't you know it's all about the chiiiiillldreeeeeen? As Nancy Pelosi said in her revolting interview on 60 minutes, she wants to put the Speaker's gavel in the hands of America's children. This "little adults" attitude is common in liberal circles.

I listened to Mark Steyn talk this morning about how we in the West are extending childhood basically to age thirty and that thirteen year olds used to have the responsibilities of adults. I invite you to listen also.

It's not just the ads. It's the "flavor" of the left when they don't have power - the hypocritical, near-psychotic ranting mania. When they're in power it's more a sort of smug paternalistic power trip, with the hysteria more reserved for internal meetings (you know, the NEA, party conventions, etc.).

I think part of the left is always on the Road to Madness, but in 2000 they managed to capture a larger demographic, which has been growing ever since.

Maybe I'm wrong, but there did seem to be a time when Rs and Ds could say "We agree, mostly, on ideals but disagree on methods, perhaps we should compromise..."

And now the conversation starts with the left pitching afit, calling Rs the devil, and then where can the conversation go from there?

I mean, I can't even have a discussion on a technical board or eBay's discussion forum on shipping without someone introducing some paranoid political rant. It's really getting sickening.

Checkbook Politics Still Drawing Interest

In 2002, Russ Feingold and John McCain convinced Congress and the American people to sell out the First Amendment in exchange for getting the big money out of politics. Accept these limitations on free speech, proponents of the BCRA asked, and we'll keep rich people from buying our elections. On that basis, it passed both houses and George Bush signed it into law.

So how has it worked? The First Amendment restrictions have worked rather well; people still cannot criticize incumbents in the final 60 days before an election, a development that would have shocked and angered the men who wrote and adopted the First Amendment as a check against professional politicians. However, the money keeps on rolling into politics, only now it goes outside the channels of accountability, as the Los Angeles Times reports:Ironically, the Times found all of these figures at Opensecrets.org, the web site devoted to full disclosure in politics.Posted by Captain Ed at 06:40 AM | Comments (4) | TrackBack (1)

John Kerry Supports The Troops As Special-Education Cases

John Kerry has never hidden his contempt for the armed forces very well, not even when he served as an officer in the Navy. Yesterday the mask slipped a little bit, as John Ziegler at KFI notes on his website, and Allahpundit mirrors at Hot Air. At a political rally for California's Democratic challenger to Arnold Schwarzenegger for governor, Phil Angelides, Kerry told the Pasadena City College crowd to study hard and get an education -- or wind up like the losers in the military:

“You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and you do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, uh, you, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq.”

Wow. Just wow. Posted by Captain Ed at 06:53 AM | Comments (69) | TrackBack (15)

This clip, with a couple of Dean's remarks along with Pelosi saying we don't need a missile defense shield and some goods pictures of the Killing Fields would make a great  ad.

JOHN KERRY -- a gift that keeps on giving. Unfortunately, it's a gift for the Republicans. . . .

Kerry's suggestion that the troops in Iraq are dumb failures is not only reprehensible, but false on the facts. In other words, a typical Kerry performance, just in time for the elections.  Philip Klein observes: "What struck me about this comment beyond the obvious fact that it is insulting to our troops, is just how politically incompetent John Kerry is. Here we are, a week before Election Day..."

After J F'ing Kerry Swiftboats the Democrats, Hillary! come up with this gem:

Hillary Clinton calls for 'internationalist' foreign policy--I'm surprised and pleased to see her declare this so far in advance. Underlying all of this are the same old tired socialist assumptions that wealth equates to possession of material goods and that an inequitable distribution of those is detrimental to an imagined Better World, and that the remediation for this involves taking from those who have and giving to those with claims on it.

 

And then, there is this menace:

Islam: What The West Needs To Know (a peek at the film)--a TV special called Don't Get Me Started: There's No Excuse For Terror (37 minutes).  It explains how crazy it is for some liberals to call terrorists "Freedom Fighters" and to support groups like Hezbollah since they stand for everything that any true liberal is against.

Why Nancy Pelosi Thinks Alcee Hastings Is Qualified

Over the last few weeks, I have pointed out that the man Nancy Pelosi wants to head the House Intelligence Committee if the Democrats win control of the House, Alcee Hastings, got impeached and removed for corruption from the federal bench by a Democratic Congress twenty years ago. For a potential Speaker who likes to talk about "draining the swamp" of Republican corruption, giving a disgraced judge the gavel to a committee critical to national security seems not just strange but dangerous in a time of war. However, Ruth Marcus tells a story in her Washington Post column today that explains Pelosi's enthusiasm for Hastings: And why is Pelosi so dead set on Hastings? Marcus confirms what I wrote earlier; the Congressional Black Caucus will not support her for the speakership if she doesn't select Hastings. This is what a Democratic majority will bring.

When John Kerry's Courage Went M.I.A. (Senator covered up evidence of P.O.W.'s left behind)

Democrat Blog Applauds Kerry's Military Insult

Kerry’s base knew exactly what he was saying. They know very well that it was not a joke about President Bush, as Kerry is now (laughably) trying to claim. Here’s a post applauding Kerry’s slam at the military, at The Democratic Daily: All Star Rally Gives Phil Angelides A Boost.    link: 152 comments

VDH has this to say:

What is striking about visiting Iraq is the wealth of talent there, from privates to generals. Without being gratuitously cruel, the problem of mediocrity is not in the ranks of the military, but on our university campuses, where half-educated professors and non-serious students killing time are ubiquitous. Personally, I'd wager the intelligence of a Marine Corps private any day over the average D.C. journalist.

Loony Left Blogs Worship Angry Flipper

Following his offhanded insult against America’s military, John Kerry is getting lots of support for his angry, defensive press conference—from (who else?) the Angry Left blogosphere: JohnKerry.com - Blog: Hit’ em Back Harder, Harder.  | link: 154 comments "Kerry starts going all defensive, lashing out in anger, and digging an even deeper hole for himself. That happened with the Swift Boat Veterans in 2004...Two calls for his resignation in the last hour and a half. Dems deserting like flies."

How They're Covering the Kerry Story

For the most part, the mainstream media (newspapers, anyway) are resolutely refusing to be thrown off message by John Kerry's series of gaffes. The New York Times, for example, headlines As Vote Nears, Stances on War Set Off Sparks. The Times leads, not with Kerry's statement, but with President Bush's criticism of it, and frames the story as being primarily about the President and the war. You have to read deep into the Times's article to discover what it was that Bush criticized.

The Washington Post buried the story on page A8. It, too, framed the story as being mainly about the President; its headline is Bush Calls Kerry Remarks Insulting to U.S. Troops. In the Post, at least you don't have to read to the end of the story to find out what "Kerry's remarks" were. But both papers spend more space on the unpopularity of the war and on how well Democrats are doing this election cycle than on Kerry's gaffe and the outrage it has provoked.

The Minneapolis Star Tribune's coverage is more straightforward; it recounts Kerry's comment and the reaction to it without surrounding the story with spin. But the Strib buries its one paragraph of coverage deep inside the paper, as the lead item in a column titled "Iraq Developments."

The liberal press has a story line for this election, and John Kerry's exposing how the left really feels about the military isn't it. This story illustrates, I think, the rift between this country's two media cultures.

It's come down to the ground game. If Republicans want to ensure that the GOP continues to control Congress after the midterms, we need to get organized in the final hours. Let me give you the short, blog-version of the St. Crispin's Day speech from Henry V. If November 8th arrives and we have lost control of the House or Senate, or both, and you didn't spend that 30 minutes doing your best to keep Republicans in office, how will you feel? Will it be more important to secure the majorities, or to watch the Vikings blow another game on television?Posted by Captain Ed at 06:19 PM | Comments (7)

So I Guess The FMSO Documents Are Legit

Over the past year or so, I have provided CQ readers with a number of translations from key Iraqi Intelligence Service documents that have been translated by either the FMSO or by Joseph Shahda of the Free Republic website. I even engaged two interpreters to verify one particularly explosive memo last April, after Shahda published his own translation. Now we find another verification of their authenticity, this time from the New York Times, which reports today that the documents constitute a national-security threat: This is apparently the Times' November surprise, but it's a surprising one indeed. The Times has just authenticated the entire collection of memos, some of which give very detailed accounts of Iraqi ties to terrorist organizations. Just this past Monday, I posted a memo which showed that the Saddam regime actively coordinated with Palestinian terrorists in the PFLP as well as Hamas and Islamic Jihad. On September 20th, I reposted a translation of an IIS memo written four days after 9/11 that worried the US would discover Iraq's ties to Osama bin Laden.

What other highlights has the Times now authenticated? We have plenty:

* 2001 IIS memo directing its agents to test mass grave sites in southern Iraq for radiation, and to use "trusted news agencies" to leak rumors about the lack of credibility of Coalition reporting on the subject. They specify CNN.

* The Blessed July operation, in which Saddam's sons planned a series of assassinations in London, Iran, and southern Iraq

* Saddam's early contacts with Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda from 1994-7

* UNMOVIC knew of a renewed effort to make ricin from castor beans in 2002, but never reported it

* The continued development of delivery mechanisms for biological and chemical weapons by the notorious "Dr. Germ" in 2002

Actually, we have much, much more. All of these documents underscore the threat posed by Saddam Hussein and show that his regime continued their work on banned weapons programs.

NY Times: Iraq Within A Year Of Building Bomb In 2002

November 3rd, 2006

A seemingly inadvertent admission from the "Paper Of Treason," the New York Times:

U.S. Web Archive Is Said to Reveal a Nuclear Guide

November 3, 2006
By WILLIAM J. BROAD

Last March, the federal government set up a Web site to make public a vast archive of Iraqi documents captured during the war. The Bush administration did so under pressure from Congressional Republicans who said they hoped to “leverage the Internet” to find new evidence of the prewar dangers posed by Saddam Hussein.

But in recent weeks, the site has posted some documents that weapons experts say are a danger themselves: detailed accounts of Iraq’s secret nuclear research before the 1991 Persian Gulf war. The documents, the experts say, constitute a basic guide to building an atom bomb.

Last night, the government shut down the Web site after The New York Times asked about complaints from weapons experts and arms-control officials.

Among the dozens of documents in English were Iraqi reports written in the 1990s and in 2002 for United Nations inspectors in charge of making sure Iraq had abandoned its unconventional arms programs after the Persian Gulf war. Experts say that at the time, Mr. Hussein’s scientists were on the verge of building an atom bomb, as little as a year away.

Saddam Was Close to a Nuclear Bomb

Here’s the New York Times’ November surprise: U.S. Web Archive Is Said to Reveal a Nuclear Guide.

Apparently, in 1991 Saddam Hussein was about a year away from a nuclear bomb, and possessed detailed plans to build one. The Times wouldn’t be publishing this if they thought it would help the GOP, and the angle here is that the Bush administration was sloppy with intelligence secrets, since some of the plans were made publicly available on the Iraq documents web site.

But it’s a weak last-minute play, that could just as easily be interpreted as a positive story for the Bush administration since it lends credence to fears of Iraqi WMD.

UPDATE at 11/2/06 10:17:02 pm:

Note paragraph 13 (hat tip: LGF readers):

Among the dozens of documents in English were Iraqi reports written in the 1990s and in 2002 for United Nations inspectors in charge of making sure Iraq had abandoned its unconventional arms programs after the Persian Gulf war. Experts say that at the time, Mr. Hussein’s scientists were on the verge of building an atom bomb, as little as a year away.

Is the New York Times actually conceding that Saddam was just a year away from having a nuclear weapon in 2002?

Iraq's WMD Secreted in Syria, Sada Says

The man who served as the no. 2 official in Saddam Hussein's air force says Iraq moved weapons of mass destruction into Syria before the war by loading the weapons into civilian aircraft in which the passenger seats were removed.

ANOTHER FORMER HIGH-RANKING IRAQI OFFICIAL CONFIRMS WMD WENT TO SYRIA

Ali Ibrahim al-Tikriti was a southern regional commander for Saddam Hussein’s Fedayeen militia in the late 1980s and a personal friend of the dictator. Units under his command dealt with chemical and biological weapons.

A senior Syrian journalist reports Iraq WMD located in three Syrian sites

Nizar-Nayouf, a Syrian journalist who recently defected from Syria to Western Europe and is known for bravely challenging the Syrian regime, said in a letter Monday, January 5, [2006], to Dutch newspaper “De Telegraaf,” that he knows the three sites where Iraq's Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) are kept.

Deputy Undersecretary of Defense John A. Shaw: Russia Moved Saddam's WMD

A top Pentagon official who was responsible for tracking Saddam Hussein's weapons programs before and after the 2003 liberation of Iraq, has provided the first-ever account of how Saddam Hussein "cleaned up" his weapons of mass destruction stockpiles to prevent the United States from discovering them.

For those in still in denial, Saddam's WMD went to Syria...

John Conyers, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee

If the Democrats capture control of the House as expected, John Conyers (D-MI) will chair the Judiciary Committee.

John Conyers introduced H. Res. 288 in May 2005. While it speaks of all three "Abrahamic" faiths, it is clearly designed, under the guise of "tolerance" and condemnation of "bigotry," to stifle free discussion of the elements of Islam that give rise to violence and the supremacist impulse that we see all over the world today. Here is the text:

Conyers also did CAIR's bidding in working to deny an Indian official's entry into the US.

And then there's Khaled Saffuri.

The Times: Still Running Interference for Kerry!

The New York Times did everything it could to get John Kerry elected President in 2004, and the paper is still running interference for him. We haven't yet commented on this astonishing piece by Kate Zernike, which appeared yesterday. It is misleading and tendentious in a number of ways-- Permalink  Via Patterico, who has more. What makes this piece so outrageous is that it flat-out lies about what Kerry said."...this not only makes the NY Times look silly, it also make Kerry look foolish..." "...jaw dropping for the stupidity..."

9/11 Attack Victims' Remains Identified

Never forget: Remains identified of September 11 flight victims.

The New York medical examiner’s office said in a statement that it had identified remains of Karen Ann Martin, the 40-year-old head flight attendant on American Airlines Flight 11, which slammed into the trade center’s north tower.

Remains of Douglas Joel Stone, 54, who was a passenger on the same flight as Martin, were also identified. The remains of a third male victim were identified, but his family requested that his name be withheld and an official declined to say whether he was on one of the two planes that struck the Twin Towers.

Saddam was a year away from having nukes -- Bush to blame

The defining characteristic of partisan attacks on President Bush has been their unthinking and indiscriminate nature. For example, Bush is to blame for not halting the development of nukes by Iran and North Korea, but he's also to blame for toppling Saddam Hussein due in part to his concern that Saddam was interested in and capable of developing nukes. Critics point to Iran's rise as evidence that Bush misplaced his focus on Iraq but they don't consider how Saddam would have reacted to Iranian nuclear progress.

The New York Times now has carried unthinking Bush-bashing to a point beyond caricature. Today, as Tiger Hawk notes, it quotes with apparent approval "experts" who say that Saddam was as little as a year away from building an atom bomb. The Times does so in order to show that the Bush administration acted recklessly when it published captured Iraqi documents that describe that country's WMD programs, because those documents might be used by another country in furtherance of building WMD.

Did the Times just say that Saddam's Iraq was a year away from building a nuclear weapon? I guess so. Good thing Saddam's no longer in power.

As Tiger Hawk puts it, "the New York Times owes Judith Miller an apology. Or at least a hat tip." Not to mention President Bush.

The NYT/IAEA Conspiracy

An Arabic-speaking blogger who has been translating Iraqi documents from the DOD web site has some very interesting remarks about the New York Times/IAEA election hit; he has been trying to get the IAEA to answer questions about his findings on Saddam’s nuclear plans since early October:| link: 36 comments "This blogger (jveritas on Free Republic) is quite an interesting story. He has been translating these pages for quite a while, on his own time and at his own expense. The main stream press has totally ignored his findings. Why? Because it is in opposition to the Democrat talking points that Saddam neither had WMD or was in the process of developing them. I am extremely skeptical that the NYT has chosen this time and place to reveal this story."

 

Electioneering of The Times --The NY Times story is a two edged sword. It was designed to embarrass the Bush administration a few short days before the mid-term elections ... but ended up reinforcing the fact that Saddam was hiding a nuclear weapons development program that was well along in development. I fault the Bush administration for not making a much stronger case...
