California GOP faces steep road back
SACRAMENTO — The Republican Party has become so pathetic in California that it can't even find a candidate to run for governor next year. Correct that. It isn't even looking. Wouldn't know where to begin. The party's in no position to recruit...

To appeal to black voters, GOP must run gauntlet of racism accusations
Jonah GoldbergIf the GOP wants to win more black votes, it will need to get a lot more "racist."

Could Augusta ever host an LPGA tournament?
WILLIAMSBURG — Mike Whan played Augusta National twice during the late 1990s. Shot 80 the second time, from the tips. Not bad for an 8-handicapper.
