Bully Pulpit

The term "bully pulpit" stems from President Theodore Roosevelt's reference to the White House as a "bully pulpit," meaning a terrific platform from which to persuasively advocate an agenda. Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

A Broad But Not a Deep Victory

By John Hood
Carolina Journal

RALEIGH –
On Election Day, voters across the United States voted for change in Washington. They’ll get some of it (starting, already, with the departure of Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld). In North Carolina, however, voters did not vote for change, deciding to add seats to the current Democratic majority in both chambers of the General Assembly. Again, they’ll likely get much of what they voted for.
