What we’ve learned from the Democratic race - so far
01/19/2020 - 6:40pm
Michael Barone
DEMOCRATS: January 17, 2020 Elections are a form of communication. Voting tells politicians, and the press if they’re capable of getting the message, what citizens will tolerate and what they won’t. The Democrats haven’t voted yet, but they’ve been campaigning for more than a year and have just had their last debate before the Iowa caucuses two weeks from Monday. THAT...
President Trump responds to Iran’s act of war
Michael Barone 01/15/2020 - 11:25am
This Week's Conservative Focus . . . Iran In all the reportage and commentary on the killing of Gen. Qassem Soleimani, I haven’t seen much mention of an interesting parallel between the Iranian mullah regime’s attacks on America this past week and its attacks when it first came to power 40 years ago. THE SIMILARITY is that both...

THOSE predictions have partially come true. Barack Obama was elected...
We’re living in the (almost) best of times
Michael Barone 12/28/2019 - 2:28pm
STANDARD OF LIVING: December 27, 2019 The best of times, the worst of times. Your instinct on which one we’re living through is affected by your basic temperament, but it also depends on how well you’re observing — and quantifying — things in the world around you. TEMPERAMENTALLY, in the United States — or at least...
The (sometimes) bizarre democratic nomination race
Michael Barone 12/16/2019 - 6:05pm
DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES: December 13, 2019 Some recent news stories verge on the bizarre — the House Democrats’ futile fuss over impeachment, Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s acceptance of President Donald Trump’s U.S.-Canada-Mexico trade treaty. But they’re not as bizarre, or possibly as consequential, as unanticipated...
