James Dobson Endorses Cruz

December 18, 2015
Analysis

James Dobson endorsed Ted Cruz on Thursday, providing yet more evidence evangelicals are trending toward Cruz: “Ted Cruz’s record on religious liberty, life and marriage is second to none in this Republican field,” Dobson said in a statement shared by the Cruz campaign. “I have met with the senator on multiple occasions: He is brilliant, articulate and informed. Shirley and I have been praying for a leader such as this, and we are confident that Ted Cruz has the moral and spiritual foundations to lead our nation with excellence. Speaking as private individuals, we urge conservatives and people of faith to join

Is Trump Winning Over the GOP’s Gay Vote?

December 17, 2015
Analysis

Marco Rubio may have gained backing from the GOP’s biggest pro-same-sex marriage donor, but gay Republicans are increasingly getting behind a different – and surprising – candidate. According to Reuters, Donald Trump has been drawing accolades from the small, but vocal, number of Republicans who would like to see the party liberalize on marriage and other related social issues: Trump has advocated for banning workplace discrimination based on sexual orientation. He criticized a Kentucky county clerk who refused to issue marriage licenses after the U.S. Supreme Court found, earlier this year, that the Constitution protects the right of same-sex couples to

Why Did Trump Declare a Ted Truce?

December 17, 2015
Analysis

Two stories got me thinking about why Trump backtracked on attacking Ted Cruz, who has emerged as his chief rival by leading in several Iowa polls. First, there’s the Trump appearance on ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” where he sort of admitted to being “a bit divisive” and made a strong call for Republican unity. ‘I would like to see the Republican party come together, and I’ve been a little bit divisive in the sense of hitting people hard,’ Trump said in an unusually relaxed and genial tone. ‘Ultimately, I would like to come together and get this thing done,’ Trump added. And then

Rand Paul Likens Fed to Soviet Politburo After Interest Rate Increase

December 17, 2015
Analysis

On Wednesday, the Federal Reserve announced that it was raising interest rates for the first time in seven years. Surprisingly, longtime critic of zero interest rates Senator Rand Paul skipped the expected sigh of relief, instead expanding his criticism of the Federal Reserve’s role in setting the value of money: “Is it a good thing or a bad thing to raise the interest rate?” Paul asked. “Well, I’m kind of agnostic on it. It’s kind of like if you ask me: All right, should the Politburo raise the price of bread or lower the price of bread? I like both

What the Non-Pledgers Said in Support of FADA

December 17, 2015
Analysis

As Jon reported earlier, four candidates have indicated support for the First Amendment Defense Act but did not sign our pledge to push for its passage in the first 100 days.  Three of those candidates’ campaigns — Donald Trump, Jeb Bush, and Lindsey Graham — provided personal responses explaining their respective stances. (The fourth, Rand Paul, did not respond but has co-sponsored FADA in the Senate.) Trump, to our knowledge, had never before indicated support for FADA.  You can read the three campaign responses below: Donald Trump Jeb Bush ‘I support the First Amendment Defense Act because I believe that

Analysis

Frank Underwood for President?

December 16, 2015
Analysis

Last night, many of us were surprised to see this ad from an apparently new contender for president, who fits right into the Washington establishment: “America, I am only getting started,” Frank Underwood intones. A brilliant little piece of creative marketing? A dark, satiric commentary on American politics? Both? Clint Cline is the president of Design4, a national media and messaging firm based in Florida.

On the Tenth Day Before Christmas, the CNN Debate Gave to Me…

December 16, 2015
Analysis

The most keenly interesting element of the CNN GOP presidential debate was the clear split in sentiment among the candidates on how to handle the most pressing national security problem America confronts. They split between the tough doves, Cruz and Trump, massively leading in the polls, and five militant hawks, Bush, Rubio, Christie, Kasich, and Fiorina, who are lagging. And Dr. Carson, who talks like a dove but promises hawkish policy. Call him a partridge. Most commentators focused on the social dynamics, such as Donald Trump’s very gallant praise for his most potent rival, Ted Cruz, as well as for
