Roger,
I’d be happy to weigh in with occasional psychoanalytically informed observations on the mood and mindset of New York liberals.
I’m no longer writing at Horsefeathers, but you can review a couple of pieces at American Thinker.

I am a passionate, conservative-leaning libertarian-at-heart lawyer in Columbus, Ohio. I write a political blog that I am sure both of my readers would vouch for, where samples of my writing sample can be found readily. I am interested in the writing position covering the Ohio US senate race to replace retiring RINO George Voinovitch.

Why pay at all? The beauty of Pajamas Media is that it is like Stone Soup. Bring the water to boil, toss in a rock and introduce the Comments. Delish-dish!
I live in Ohio’s 17th Congressional district where former Democrat Congressman Jim Traficant is running as an “independent” for Congress. He’s tanned, rested and fresh from the Federal Pen. If you like, I could ask around and see if anyone is going to vote for him.
Why pay for someone to write a column regardless how passionate and prolific they are?
I live in the 5th district of Ohio and have followed every aspect of what has been going on nationwide.
I see no vast change after November elections. It will be business as usual with a few new faces thrown in and mostly retreads that have never had to grub for a dollar.
Electing business men is not the answer either in the long run, with the exception of a small business of say 50 to 100 employees. No past CEO of large major corporations should even be considered for congress because they and their business has always lobbied for special favors.
Not until after the revolution will things change. Votes don’t count anymore. Everyone votes early and often in today’s world.
I’ll assume, since you didn’t include Florida in your list, that y’all think Alan Grayson will be defeated. That’s the assessment on the ground down here as well. And I know what happens when you assume.
Anyway, here’s my link,

Do drop by, my other two readers are getting a bit lonely.
I drove through a section of Alan Grayson’s district today. I loved the “Good bye Alan Grayson” yard signs!
I was eager to submit what ever was required to land one of these writing positions and then found that Oregon is outside the focus of the effort.
Oregon is about to elect a Republican governor, Chris Dudley, ending 24 years of liberal democratic rule!

We also have a US Senate race between an incumbent, Ron Wyden’s (D), who resides in NEW YORK, and Jim Huffman (R), a credentialed constitutional expert. Watch for this race to heat up and surprise everyone.

As a Kentucky transplant from Pittsburgh some 20 years ago, my biggest challenge was learning the language. But it’s a beautiful state of small towns, friendly folk and a conservative bent which suits me nicely. I’ll be happy to volunteer
I write on a regular basis for Reality News in WI. I am intimately aware of the issues and the candidates in the race, including the non- establishment candidates Dave Westlake and Rob Taylor. I have met and talked to each and every candidate for Senate in WI personally, and although Russ may or may not remember my name, I am sure he will recall a few of our conversations once he sees my face.
I am the man for the job.
