Florida moving its presidential primaries to Jan. 29 won't do any good if they can't get their ballots counted until March.

So, the winner of last night's GOP debate was Ronald Reagan?

Gee, I wonder why Jim Black really wants Judge James Dever off his case?

The toughest ticket in the Triad this weekend is the High Point University graduation, where Bill Cosby is speaking -- and I've got one (will report tomorrow).

That study of supposed racial bias by NBA referees shows that some people in the world of academia need more real work to do.

Naw! Florida has kick out the computer touch voter system to the tune of 35 million. No more cheating now!

"A coming paper by a University of Pennsylvania professor and a Cornell University graduate student says that, during the 13 seasons from 1991 through 2004, white referees called fouls at a greater rate against black players than against white players."

Do you really believe that the lazy Profs review over 3 million fouls from NBA video tapes from the past 13 years? Did it ever occure to them that 80% of the NBA players are black? And the most important thing is! What idiot funded this stupid political conservative racist study?
