WINNERS:
Vladimir Putin –
Former Russian President turned Russian Prime Minister turned Russian Presidential Candidate Vladimir Putin is pretty much a shoe-in to become Russian President Vladimir Putin again. Although everyone knew it was going to happen, Putin was formally nominated as the United Russia party’s nominee for the presidency this week. Putin is more popular than ever now in Mother Russia. His “campaign” should be

Or, Al Franken’s Intellectual Dishonesty, Part MMMCDLXIII
Perhaps the quote which best defines now-Senator Al Franken is a little disclaimer he placed in the intro to his laughably-titled Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right. It goes, “Everything in this book is true. Either that, or it’s a joke. If you see something that doesn’t ring true, you’ve probably just missed a hilarious joke, and should blame yourself rather than me.”
Franken’s career as political activist has basically been one “joke” after another. He’s claimed Bill O’Reilly “lied” about being born in

Winners and Losers of the Week Ending July 10
by Ronald A. Rowe July 12th, 2011 | Congress, Political Humor, Political Opinions, Winners & Losers
The whole Internet is abuzz with political news, opinions, and spin, but only here at Camp Campaign can you get it all – reported, opined, and spun - condensed into six pithy paragraphs every week. Without further exposition, here are the biggest winners and losers from the world of politics this week.
Winners:
Boneheaded Politicians - This was a good week to be a typical bonehead in politics. With 23.75 hours a day devoted to coverage of the Casey Anthony trial, politicians could get away with anything short of shooting up a McDonald’s with a machine gun this week.

Re-elect Harry Reid?
by Ronald A. Rowe July 26th, 2010 | Congress, Political Opinions
How could this have happened? The Harry Reid era was over and done. His grand arrival on the national stage highlighted his every foible and magnified his failures to the point that he was un-re-electable. It was just a matter of waiting for November.
So how it that Harry Reid is leading the latest Mason-Dixon poll of likely Nevada voters? There’s a perfect 4-part storm swirling about that could easily sweep “Dingy Harry” back into office.
Part 1 – A Weak Opponent. It all started with

Crist vs Rubio

If you're a political junkie, you've probably heard a fair amount of talk about this year's Senate race in Florida, even if you're not from the Sunshine State. As a Floridian, I always have mixed feelings when our state gets national attention. On the one hand, it's nice to be noticed. On the other hand, it seems like we're usually noticed for all the wrong reasons. Hanging chads, anyone?
This time around is no exception. We've got two Republican candidates for Senate bloodying each other up in the primary. The make-up of this particular race is drawing a lot of
