Wingnut underwriter Foster Friess wonders where his money went: “You have no idea of the financial structuring of a lot of these outside groups in terms of how much went to the actual delivery of a message, versus how many dollars were taken off as fees to the people running them.” [LAT, via TPM]
Welcome to NRO’s Bitterfest 2012! “The Left is winning, in more than the electoral sense. The Left is winning culturally — psychologically, spiritually, if you will.
