Texas Is Red
Texas has gone Republican for President for three decades. This time wasn't any different. John McCain won the state.

The Galveston Comeback
LoneStar Times has an amazing before and after picture of Galveston. It's stunning.

Why You Should Vote For John McCain

Many many years ago I first read about John McCain in the pages of The National Review. I wasn't aware of his history as a P.O.W, and I read with fascination about his courage and strength. One sentence always remained with me. The author of the article said, "We don't make men like him anymore."
