Jim Geraghty

Jim Geraghty is a conservative activist and regular contributor to "National Review Online" and "National Review". In addition to writing columns for "National Review", Geraghty also blogs for National Review Online and is a former reporter for States News Service.

During the 2004 US Presidential election, Geraghty was often critical of Democratic Party presidential candidate John Kerry. At the time his weblog used the name "The Kerry Spot". It was later renamed "TKS".Geraghty reported on the Killian documents and Rathergate stories on a daily basis on behalf of National Review and was critical of CBS and Dan Rather. Geraghty was one of the self described Pajamahadeen.

Starting in March 2005, Geraghty posted to TKS from Turkey, where he lived as an expatriate. In January 2007, he moved from TKS to a new blog, originally named "The Hilary Spot" [http://hillaryspot.nationalreview.com/] but since renamed to "The Campaign Spot".

Geraghty's book, "Voting to Kill: How 9/11 Launched the Era of Republican Leadership" (Touchstone, September 2006, ISBN 0743290429) argues that national security and safety in the face of terrorist threats is the key issue in U.S. politics.
