Michael Barone is a kind of stiff, close to the vest, tacks and nails reporter. Not much humor, nor many mistakes ever seem to pop up in Mr. Barone’s reportings.
His language does not extend beyond the provable, likeable, and honest…it IS what it IS!
I always support accuracy over flair and style. Flair and style are often tricks of the journalists’ trade to cover deceit and lies which so regularly run through today’s leftwing Obamaling writings throughout America’s university programmed communication world.

DON’T WRITE THOSE TEA-PARTY OBITUARIES JUST YET
February marked the fifth anniversary of the reemergence of the label “Tea Party” in American politics. It was in February 2009 that Rick Santelli delivered his famous rant on CNBC, and a few days later, a group calling itself the Tea Party Patriots was organized.
Today the conventional wisdom is that the Tea Party movement is exhausted. Polls are cited showing that only one quarter of Americans express approval of the Tea Party. Democrats run ads claiming their opponents are Tea Party radicals.
Many Republicans argue that Tea Party candidates have lost winnable Senate races, cementing the Democratic majority there rather than overturning it.
