Tuesday roundup

Mike Adams is a national treasure. He's a criminology professor at UNC-Wilmington and he's demonstrated extraordinary courage over his career standing up to a rabidly leftwing administration there. The point of his column today, though, is more about national politics. It's entitled "Why I Left the GOP." It recounts his break with the radical leftism he embraced until the early 1990s, and then his disappointment with the party that was supposed to embody his new-found conservatism:

Since joining the GOP in 1999, I can safely say that they have failed to nominate a single conservative over the span of five presidential election cycles. Three of those nominees have been particularly problematic with the last finally driving me over the edge and making me re-register as an independent.
