Tom Harman represents the people of the 35th Senate District.

Harman, a member of the Republican Party, was first elected to the State Senate in 2006 in a special election after serving nearly six years in the State Assembly representing the 67th Assembly District.

Senator Harman first entered the State Legislature in 2000 after serving six years on the Huntington Beach City Council.

Senator Harman, a local businessman and civic volunteer, has lived and worked in Orange County for nearly 50 years.

With every passing hour comes word through the political grapevine that John McCain has settled on Romney, or considering Mike Huckabee, or picked Ron Paul. Even Hillary Clinton’s name has been thrown around this afternoon. Probably the biggest issue surrounding McCain's VP pick is whether he'll dare pick a populist candidate as his running mate. A small vocal base of the richest 1% of Americans is up in arms at the thought of a populist candidate on the ticket.

Polla are notorious for their volatility. Still, an encouraging sign!

John McCain has moved ahead of Barack Obama in the latest Reuters/Zogby poll. It is based on polling done Thursday through Saturday, as Obama wound up his (second!) vacation in Hawaii and prospective voters digested the impact of Russia's invasion of Gerogia.

This is the first time McCain has had the advantage in this poll. Sweet!

WTF Barack? You don’t really think people are believing you here… do you?

Gateway Pundit points out, with the help of the RNC video we posted here a few weeks ago, Obama’s many stances on Iraq:

Here’s why:

Ok :0) here’s the actual footage released by the Iranians notice they only released the beginning lift off sequence:

Remember, the whole point of Sen. Joe Biden’s presidential campaign was to set up contrasts with other candidates — especially Obama — on the experience issue. He once said of Obama, “”Having talking points on foreign policy doesn’t get you there.”

Check his stump speech to see how many times Biden would say that American needs a leader who was ready from day one. And he wasn’t referring to Hillary Clinton…

Here’s Biden on January 1:

“Do I believe this man or woman is capable of dealing today with the crisis in Pakistan? Do I believe that the person I’m looking for is capable TODAY of beginning to to end the war in Iraq without leaving chaos behind. Do I believe that the man or woman I am supporting TODAY understands how to begin to rejuvenate this economy?”
