Column: Iran nuclear deal a win-win
(09/02/15 4:17am)
On Tuesday, the 33rd United States Senator expressed his support for the Iran Nuclear deal. A 34th has suggested the deal will survive opposition. It's a key number, because Senate Republicans are attempting to block the deal, which will be submitted to Congress for approval. Even if a Congressional majority opposes the deal, President Obama can veto their disapproval and force the deal through. The only thing that could stop the deal from becoming official after a presidential veto would be a super majority (two thirds) vote of the Senate. With 34 senators now vocally supporting the deal it is mathematically impossible for the 100 member Senate to achieve the 67 votes against the deal for a super majority. The deal is going to happen; there's nothing Republicans can do to stop it. That's a good thing.

Column: Establishment candidates wither in heat of Republican race
(08/31/15 3:02am)
We are six months away from the Iowa caucus, the first battle of the 2016 presidential election. It’s been over five months since the first Republican candidate, Ted Cruz, announced his decision to run for president, and it’s been four months since I wrote a column advocating an end to the Jeb Bush candidacy. The summer of 2015 brought many changes to the campaign landscape, and reflecting upon these changes raises questions about the future.
