Book Titles For The Spitzers
By Roger Stone Why should Ashley Dupre be the only one to reap millions from the fall of Eliot Spitzer? Book deals for the Governor and First Lady. For law-man Eliot the title is obvious; “The Final Probe,” For Silda, “You, Me and Dupre”.
Off Geraldine Ferraro
By Roger Stone I have never been a big fan of Geraldine Ferraro. In fact, after the 1984 election her lawyers contacted me with a demand that I apologize for some particularly nasty things I had said about her on Television while working for Ronald Reagan’s reelection when she was on the Democratic ticket for […]
On Spitzer – What A Difference A Few Months Makes
The New York Times Men’s Fashion Section
Who wears this stuff? By Roger Stone For years I have looked forward to the New York Times special Men’s Style Magazine published on a Sunday both Spring and Fall. Sadly, the most recent edition on March 9th 2008 is really a chronicle on the decline of men’s clothing in this century. Instead of smart-cut […]

When Mario Savio started the Filthy Speech movement at Berkley, Liberals thought it was fine. “One – two – three – four we don’t want […]
Rollins Does It Again
Knifes GOP Nominee Apparent By Roger Stone With the predictability of the sunrise, the sometime-Republican consultant Ed Rollins knifed his own Party’s nominee on the record. Rollins, who managed Ronald Reagan’s cake-walk reelection in 1984, had no role in Reagan’s campaign in 1980 when I served as Eastern Regional Political Director with responsibility both before […]
The Clinton Ship Goes Down
By Roger Stone The New York Times details screaming matches between Clinton Campaign guru Mark Penn and Clinton Media Consultant Mandy Grunwald, over how to rearrange the deckchairs on the Titanic.

Bill Buckley Conservative And Cool
