Trump’s Improving Polls, Biden’s Bungled Words, Patrick’s Empty Event

November 21, 2019 by GregC

Listen to “Trump’s Improving Polls, Biden’s Bungled Words, Patrick’s Empty Event” on Spreaker.

It’s all electoral politics for your Thursday martinis! Today, Jim and Greg discuss President Trump doing much better in Wisconsin than he was just a month ago and offer ideas for why those numbers are changing.  We also discuss the latest Democratic presidential debate and take a closer look at Joe Biden’s difficulty at clearly expressing himself in many responses.  And we note that new 2020 Democratic hopeful Deval Patrick is off to a bit of a rough start in drawing support.

Encouraging Senate Polls, Tone-Deaf Warren, Delay Kavanaugh Over Cohen Plea?

August 23, 2018 by GregC

Listen to “Encouraging Senate Polls, Tone-Deaf Warren, Delay Kavanaugh Over Cohen Plea?” on Spreaker.

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America cheer up as they see new Senate polls showing Rick Scott with a healthy lead in Florida and Republicans within striking distance in Wisconsin.  They also shake their heads as Sen. Elizabeth Warren issues perfunctory condolences to the family of Mollie Tibbetts but says we need to focus on our real immigration problems.  And they marvel at Senate Democrats, who now insist that the consideration of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh must wait because Michael Cohen has accused President Trump of a campaign finance violation.

Ugly Midterm Omen, Tariff Train Wreck, You Tube Shooting & Media Bias

April 4, 2018 by GregC


Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America shake their heads as Democrats win another high-profile special election.  By itself, it may not mean much, but Democrats have won a string of races where Republicans were expected to be competitive or heavily favored.  Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker is openly concerned about a “Blue Wave” in 2018 and Jim and Greg discuss why he’s right to sound the alarm.  They also sigh as the Trump administration and China swap tariffs, leading to stock market drops and higher prices.  And they shake their heads as the media go wall-to-wall with coverage of the shootings at You Tube headquarters, only to drop the story when the shooter does not fit the media stereotype of a mass shooter.

Tax Cuts More Popular, Rough 2018 Forecast, Are Reporters Fit to Serve?

January 17, 2018 by GregC


Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America welcome a new poll showing nearly half of Americans hold a positive view of the Republican tax bill and are bullish on the economy, although they are not ready to give Trump and the GOP credit.  They also wince as Democrats win a usually safe Republican seat in the Wisconsin State Senate, and Gov. Scott Walker urges GOP members and activists to make sure people know about their significant accomplishments.  And they sigh as President Trump’s doctor gives the commander-in-chief a clean bill of health, but White House reporters still ask the physician a litany of repetitive questions about Trump’s mental health and whether he he is fit to serve under the conditions of the 25th Amendment.

Right to Work Wins Again, Students Clueless on Free Speech, ‘Top Gun’ Ad Flops

September 20, 2017 by GregC


Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America cheer a court decision that upholds Wisconsin’s right to work law and rejects the argument of organized labor that it has a right to part of workers’ paychecks.  They also shudder as a new study shows students of all political stripes evenly divided on whether “hate speech” should be protected speech, whether it’s OK to shout down speakers they don’t like, or even whether uncomfortable views should be allowed on campus.  And they have fun with a political ad that is a horrible parody of a famous scene from “Top Gun.”

UK Terror Continues, SCOTUS To Draw the Lines, The Left is America’s ISIS?

June 19, 2017 by GregC


Jim Geraghty of National Review and Rich McFadden of Radio America react to news of yet another terror attack in the UK which targeted British Muslims outside of a London mosque after their evening prayers for Ramadan. They also discuss the Supreme Court’s announcement that they will take up the partisan gerrymandering case in the state of Wisconsin to determine whether or not the act is unconstitutional. And they respond to Erick Erickson’s sensationalist comments as he refers to the left as “America’s ISIS” and advocates for state secession.

Three Martini Lunch 12/8/16

December 8, 2016 by GregC

http://dateline.radioamerica.org/podcast/3-Martini-Lunch-12-8-16.mp3

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America are glad to see Jill Stein’s quixotic recount journey get shut down in Michigan and headed towards an anticlimactic finish in Wisconsin.  They slam the media for only now realizing that many of the new jobs created in the Obama years are low-wage, part time openings that aren’t a long-term solution for families.  And they unload on CNN for suggesting that racism was behind the fierce Republican opposition to President Obama’s agenda.

http://dateline.radioamerica.org/podcast/3-Martini-Lunch-12-5-16.mp3

Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America shake their heads as the media and the left go nuts because Donald Trump took a phone call from the president of Taiwan.  They also sigh as the media ramp up an hysterical assault on “fake news.”  And they note that the Wisconsin recount has done nothing so far – except narrowly increase Trump’s lead.
