Barack Obama Refused Public Financing For General Election
2008-06-19 14:16:00 This is one of the news items of the day. Senator Barack Obama has annouced today that he is not going to use taxpayer money to finance his campaign for President of the United States. To date, Senator Obama has raised more than $200 million in donations most smaller than $200 - unprecedented. Here's Senator Obama's message:
Obama: Clinton and I will be ?having a conversation in the coming weeks?
2008-06-04 23:27:00 Today, after doing “a victory lap through the Senate” (as worded by a Politico article), Obama met with reporters outside of the Capitol. Here’s what he told reporters, regarding Clinton’s non-concession- speech last night: “I thought Senator Clinton, after a long-fought campaign, was understandably focused on her supporters. … I just spoke to her today, and we are going ...
Hillary Clinton: ?I will be making no decisions tonight? on Quitting the Ra
2008-06-04 06:46:00 So, I’ve already analyzed Obama’s speech which was given shortly after Clinton’s following speech. She had been expected to suspend her campaign and acknowledge that Obama had reached the “magic number,” but not actually concede, but she didn’t even do that. She just said, “I’ll talk it over and decide later” essentially. Here’s the speech: Thank you. Thank you so much. ...
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 ...
Obama Clinches the Nomination; Clinton Open to Being His Running Mate
2008-06-04 02:54:00 This broke earlier today while I was at work, so my apologies for having it up late. Although Obama has not formally come out with the ”magic number,” my tallies, as well as CNN’s and the Associated Press’s do confirm that he should go over that mark tonight, if what Obama is reporting in terms of Superdelegate pledges is ...

MN, KY General Election Polls
2008-05-27 05:35:00 Two polls I will like to point out today, one from Minnesota and the other from Kentucky. Both of which surprised me.MinnesotaMcCain: 38%Obama: 53%McCain: 38%Obama: 53%Over the last year, Minnesota has been in the battleground column and probably still is, however, in the last one or two months, polls have suggested that Minnesota may be lean or even likely Democratic this year. McCain has extraordinary strength in the Great Lakes region, particularly Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan. Polls in the later two states suggest he can win. With recent polls suggesting that Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty may not be a strong Vice Presidential pick against an Obama match-up (here) , one has to wonder if Pawlenty is a smart choice for McCain. It is my personal belief that the Vice Presidential nominee should NEVER be picked based on moving a state from one column to the next or solely based on geography. Perhaps McCain's meeting with possible Vice Presidential contenders, Jindal, Romney an...
100% of bets are for Miliband to replace Brown.
2008-05-26 16:38:00 From William Hill:William Hill are seeing an old fashioned gamble on David Miliband to become the leader of the Labour party and are now 5/2 that he succeeds Gordon Brown. "What started as a trickle has turned into a flood, 100% of wagers accepted on the next leader market have been for David Miliband. The last time we saw a gamble like this on a political leadership market it was for David Cameron and we all know what happened then."Hills are now 6/5 that Gordon Brown will NOT lead the labour party into the next General Election, for which the Conservatives are the 2/7 favourites. Hills have also seen a nibble for the 12/1 on offer that the General Election will be before the end of 2008!Runners and riders odds HERE.

In a Surprise Move, John Edwards Endorses Barack Obama
2008-05-16 02:06:00 Well, I figured that Edwards was going to stay out of this so that he didn’t influence the delegates (so that his delegates wouldn’t go over to Clinton or Obama just because he endorsed one or the other), but apparently Obama is far ahead enough that Edwards figures that Obama is 100% guaranteed to get ...

An early Israeli general election is becoming unavoidable
2008-05-06 15:00:00 DEBKAfile’s political sources report that circles closest to Ehud Olmert, prime minister and leader of the Kadima party see little hope of him surviving the political fallout from the new, as-yet unpublished police investigation against him. Tuesday, May 6, is seen as marking the critical point in the inquiry, after which the police and general prosecution will move quickly to draw up an indictment. Whether or not Olmert escapes conviction at the end of the road, his position as prime minister is becoming untenable ahead of the legal battle to clear is name. Read More… Israel braces for political shakeup if Olmert goes AFP - 2 hours ago The anti-fraud investigation is the fifth such probe of Olmert’s dealings before he became prime minister in 2006, although one case against him has been …

"The news just gets worse for Gordon Brown. When he took over we were 20/1 that he would not lead Labour into the next Election, a price that has plummeted all the way to 6/5. David Miliband is the favourite to take over from Gordon but there is a fair amount of smart money that Jack Straw will be the next leader on the assumption that Labour will struggle the next time they go to the country," said Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams.G Brown To Be Labour Leader At The Next Election: 8/13 Yes, 6/5 NoNext General Election: 4/9 Conservatives, 13/8 LabourWILLIAM HILL: NEXT LABOUR LEADER ODDS:2/1 D MILIBAND, 5/1 E BALLS, 7/1 A JOHNSON, 10/1 J PURNELL, 10/1 J STRAW, 14/1 A BURNHAM, 14/1 J DENHAM, 16/1 D ALEXANDER, 16/1 E MILIBAND, 16/1 H BENN, 16/1 Y COOPER, 20/1 H HARMAN, 25/1 C FLINT, 25/1 D BROWNE, 25/1 R K...

The Goods On Hillary Further General Election Mess For Dems

Morris continued serving as an advisor to the Clintons all the way to Bill's stint in the oval office. If you want the goods on Democratic presidential Hillary Clinton, he is the man to go to.Morris is in no way shy about providing information on Hillary. In a recent article coauthored by Eileen McGann, he compiled a list of Hillary's "admitted lies" and stated that she "simply cannot tell the truth."Here is a look at Hillary's scoreboard according to the article.• Chelsea was jogging around the Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001.
