The Daley spin

Sometimes I just don’t know if Iain Dale simply loves spinning or he writes the most outrageous posts just to fill in his blog more than once everyday…
Either way have a look at his post yesterday:
‘Families are tightening their belts, and so should Washington’ – President Obama, 21 January 2009 
Can you imagine Gordon Brown saying anything similar? No, thought [...]

Well, wouldn’t you want a mum like this?

This is a calendar I won’t be buying anytime soon… though I wonder what other pictures  are in it though.

Quote of the day

‘It may sound a bit crazy and off base, but the thing is, he’s the one who proposed this national security force. I’m just trying to bring attention to the fact that we may — may not, I hope not — but we may have a problem with that type of philosophy of radical socialism [...]

The champagne is running!

Ohio, Pennsylvania and New Mexico in the bag, likely to be followed by Indiana, Virginia, Colorado and Nevada. Hats off to Plouffe and Axelrod, great strategy on the key battlegrounds.
