The Left?s Caucus of Hate
2008-07-22 22:45:00 When I learned that advocates of gay marriage in the Golden State were intent on rhyming the ballot number (8) of the proposition to define marriage as the union of one man and one woman with “hate” in their campaign against the measure, it reminded me (yet again) of the alacrity of all too many ...

Barack Obama: ?I will be the Democratic nominee?
2008-06-04 05:33:00 Well, Barack Obama has given a speech, claiming victory as the Democratic nominee. Well, I’ve got news Barack, it really “isn’t over until the lady in the pants suit says so.” Why? Because the lady has a whole host of hit men who have done some pretty good work before (ok, maybe they did work for her ...
Attention FEC: Illegal Caucus Activity from Obama in TX!
2008-05-03 06:07:00 I am still trying to digest what I just read over at MyDD. Possibly one of the most scary and disheartening things I have seen this entire election.Pacific John claims to have evidence (lots of it) of caucus fraud in Texas. PJ is a credible source to the best of my knowledge. I hope he gets the attention of the media & the FEC on this. Superdelegates, and pledged delegates in caucus states need to pay attention too. This has the potential to blow up the winning model of Senator Obama! This has the potential to rip the democratic caucus system to shreds right before our eyes. This has the potential to send people to jail for voter fraud! Obama may be stealing this election?! This alleged old-school style cheating...Not the tricks of liberal, but those of a shady back room mob boss. Honestly, I hope it's investigated and proven false, because if it's true...It's the most terrible thing I have ever read. It will mean that our votes really do mean nothing, and my Ameri...
Hispanic Caucus Tries To Shut Down Lou Dobbs Free Speech Using Threats To C
2008-04-29 06:30:00 The Congressional Hispanic Caucus is furious at CNN for having Lou Dobbs on their network. They are so mad that they are now targeting all of CNN claiming that they are anti-immigrant and following in Dobbs footsteps. It is quite...

Libertarian Defense Caucus
2008-04-14 23:02:00 The LDC is expanding, getting a new site which is still under construction (after which I will link to it) and reorganizing itself--we are planning on more closely aligning with the Neolibertarians who share many, if not all, of the same core principles with the LDC. I've accepted a vice-chairmanship in the Caucus, so that's exciting. My first move? I'm thinking about starting a petition here in Arizona to re-instate smoking bars. And no, I don't smoke. I just find the ban on smoking in bars to be totally insane, a major infringement on our rights as Americans (after all cigarettes aren't illegal, are they?) and a horrible use of legislation that cannot possibly withstand constitutional scrutiny. That's libertarian without the "defense" part. I'm just going to keep writing and reading and try to keep warning the world about the very real danger of militant Islam. That's the best I feel I can do for the cause right now. Keep your voice h...

Pennsylvania Senator Bob Casey Endorses Obama; Obama Responds
2008-03-28 21:49:00 Earlier today, Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) endorsed Barack Obama.

Missouri Ron Paul Delegates Shake Things Up At The Caucus
2008-03-27 20:40:00 Ron Paul supporters across Missouri - who held their caucus this month - aren't content with settling for the GOP's favorite, Senator John McCain. Though Missouri's state Republican Party rules require the national delegates to vote for the presumptive nominee McCain, and Paul came in fourth at MO's Feb. 5th primary, some Missouri Republicans are not okay with that. And it doesn't matter to them where Paul placed in the lineup: it's the principle, they say.

McCain Gets Angry at a Reporter; Good for Him!
2008-03-10 06:25:00 Alright, so this video has been somewhat of a controversy lately for John McCain: I’ll say the same thing I said about Bill Clinton when he was confronted by a reporter over issues about the Nevada caucuses (http://inkslwc.wordpress.com/2-008/01/18/nevadas-democratic-ca-sino-caucuses-are-a-go/): Just like I said with the incident with Bill Clinton, sometimes “the media needs to be put in its ...

CLINTON PISSES OFF TEXAS WITH LAWSUIT THREAT OVER CAUCUS
2008-02-29 19:19:00 In a classic case of "What are they thinking" Hillary Rodham Clinton's campaign is threatening a lawsuit against the Texas Democratic Party over the complicated Texas Caucus process. The lawsuit action contrasts with the "Go with the program" approach of the Barack Obama campaign, where the Obama website has a special section devoted to the Texas Primary and a guide to the voting and caucus process. The Clinton website's Texas link takes one to a phone banking page; there's nothing on the website about the Texas Caucus process. What's interesting about this also gives a window to why the Clinton team is failing. It comes from the old "control" centered mentaility, which says "I must have control over what I do not understand," hence the lawsuit. Meanwhile, the Obama campaign's 21 Century approach is to jump into the culture of a region, in this case, Texas, and inform its supporters on the "rules of the game" there. Which process do you think works better? But the ...
Clinton Campaign: Caucus or Death?
2008-02-25 22:19:00 The Texas Primary includes both a primary vote and a caucus. The vote is to measure the width of support - who has the most supporters.

Obama Wins Wis. Primary, Hawaii Caucus
2008-02-20 11:22:00 Barack Obama cruised past a fading Hillary Rodham Clinton in the Wisconsin primary and Hawaii caucuses Tuesday night, gaining the upper hand in a Democratic presidential race for the ages. The twin triumphs made 10 straight for Obama, and left the former first lady in desperate need of a comeback in a race she long commanded as front-runner. "The change we seek is still months and miles away," Obama told a boisterous crowd in Houston in a speech in which he also pledged to end the war in Iraq in his first year in office. "I opposed this war in 2002. I will bring this war to an end in 2009. It is time to bring our troops home," he declared. Sen. John McCain, the Republican front-runner, won a pair of primaries, in Wisconsin and Washington, to continue his march toward certain nomination. In a race growing increasingly negative, Obama cut deeply into Clinton's political bedrock in Wisconsin, splitting the support of white women almost evenly with her. According to polling place ...
