Obama - A Long Row to Hoe
2008-06-08 17:54:00
With Hillary now out of the picture, (permanently I hope), Senator Barack Obama has fully turned his attention to the real opponent, John McCain.  With only 5 months to mobilize his forces against the true evil that threatens our country, Barack has started his campaigning in traditionally Republican strongholds that have resisted Democratic ...
Barack Obama - My Presumptive Democratic Nominee
2008-06-04 15:18:00
After having suffered through 39 Democratic Primary Elections and 14 Democratic Caucuses, the Democratic party finally has a presumptive candidate for President. Over the course of exactly 5 months the Democratic party has endured what is probably the worst, most vicious primary in its history.  With suggestions of sexism and racism from both sides ...
Dem Primaries - Finally Over??
2008-06-03 21:16:00
Is what Jon Stewart calls "The Long, Flat, Seemingly Endless Bataan Death March To The White House" finally over?  Have we finally seen the last petty sniping between Democrats? And more importantly, do we have time to heal our party from the horrible machinations of the Clinton’s and their rabid quest to ...
The Clinton?s - What?s the Debt Damage?
2008-05-30 20:18:00
Rather than concede gracefully and get back to her full time job as kibitzer in the Senate, Hillary has been continuing to campaign for the Democratic Nomination.  What madness is this? Why is she continuing to run her campaign into the ground?  The last figure I can find puts her at $20,000,000.00 (that’s twenty ...
McCain - I Double Dog Dare You??.
2008-05-29 15:04:00
Christ, it sounds like a boyish schoolyard dare.  The presumptive Republican nominee, John McCain, has challenged Barack Obama to go to Iraq and check out the ‘facts on the ground’ within the war zone.  McCain is more than likely hoping to see a change in Obama’s war stance should he go to the ...
Obama and McCain Duke it Out, Clinton Shadowboxes in a Corner
2008-05-28 18:45:00
The race for the Presidency is heating up between Senators Obama and McCain as the two opponents vie for voters from the important swing states of Nevada, New Mexico and Colorado.  Focusing on the issues that many Americans feel are the most important, like the illegal war in Iraq, both candidates show very ...
Searching for a Veep
2008-05-22 22:06:00
Senator Barack Obama has asked a group of friends and advisors to start searching for viable Vice Presidential candidates.  Led by Jim Johnson, biographies are being compiled on likely candidates for future consideration. Mr. Johnson, a prominent Democratic figure, is not new to the game of Veep selection.  He chaired the vice-presidential selection process for John ...
Obama Remains - The Clinton?s Fade?
2008-05-21 15:21:00
Well, another series of primary elections are over and with the two Democratic candidates splitting the states, it’s still obvious that Obama has the numerical advantage over the Clinton’s.  Splitting the two states with a win in Oregon and a loss in Kentucky, Obama now has a total of 1953 votes.  As more ...
Obama to Capture Necessary Votes Today
2008-05-20 14:26:00
It looks like Barack Obama could end today with enough votes to declare himself the Democratic National Candidate for President.  And a long, crazy road it’s been to reach this point.  We have never waited this long for a candidate, nor spent this much money trying to choose one. Obama Is Expected to Hit ...
The Clinton?s - Cry Me a River of Sexism
2008-05-16 15:27:00
Between the abhorrent racist remarks and the sexist overtones to this campaign there has been almost no respite since day one.  Someone, somewhere, has been ready to play one of the two cards in almost every commentary of the candidates and the contest.  But the question remains, is the reason that the Clinton’s ...
Obama Looks to Win Oregon
2008-05-14 18:22:00
With West Virginia behind him, Barack Obama is looking towards the last few primaries and the general election in November.  It is worthy of note that he is less concerned with his erstwhile Democratic opponents than he is with John McCain.  Really, John McCain is the one to beat now that he has ...
Obama Picks Up More Superdelegates
2008-05-13 14:39:00
Claiming both Sen. Daniel Akaka and Dolly Strazer, the Democratic national committeewoman from Hawai’i, recent Obama endorsers , Barack is ahead on Hawai’i superdelegates, 4 to 2.  This brings Obama’s totals to 1,592 regular delegates and 277 superdelegates.  That is almost 200 delegates more that the Clintons, but still less that the required ...
Obama Ties Clinton in Superdelegate Count
2008-05-09 22:13:00
As the week slowly draws to a close, Barack Obama stands ready to claim his hotly contested place as the Democratic presidential candidate.  In fact, a casual glance at his campaign shows him basically ignoring the Clinton’s and focusing on his real enemy, John McCain. In what has been the most expensive primary election ...
More Superdelegates Pledge for Obama
2008-05-08 21:48:00
Slowly but surely, the tide is turning away from the racist and divisive Clinton campaign and flowing into Obama’s camp.  Continuing to nibble away at the only ‘demographic’ where the Clinton’s continue to beat Barack, the Superdelegate count see-saws with the fortunes of the candidates. Obama has gained 6 or 7 superdelegates just this ...
Obama Widens Lead Between Himself and the Clinton?s
2008-05-07 14:41:00
In a decisive 14 percentage point lead, Barack Obama clearly took the day in North Carolina.  Barack, with 1735 pledged delegates has widened his lead over the Clinton’s with 1602 pledged delegates.  Garnering the larger percentage of the remaining free delegates Barack seems unstoppable at this point.  While the Clinton’s are clinging to ...
Tighter Race as Indiana and North Carolina go to the Polls
2008-05-06 14:33:00
Today is the last big push for both Democratic candidates in this long and protracted push for delegates.  With 187 delegates on the table Obama must gain a clear majority if he wants the Clinton’s to pack up and go home.  But survey numbers put the two candidates within single digits of each ...
Obama Responds to Gas Tax Criticism
2008-05-05 14:40:00
During a speech in Munster, Indiana on Friday, Obama responded to the criticism aimed at him for not following along with the other Republican candidates in calling for a suspension of the national gas tax.  Both the Clinton’s and McCain propose to eliminate the 18.4 cents-a-gallon federal gas tax as a short term ...
The Clinton?s Gas Tax Plan - Why It?s Dumb as Dirt
2008-05-03 18:36:00
Here is an interesting Blog post from the Houston Chronicle.  The author discusses the law of supply and demand and how the Clinton’s gas tax scheme is flawed in that it would only INCREASE the demand for an already limited commodity. My thoughts do tend to run along these lines as well, but I’m ...
More Superdelegates Side With Obama
2008-05-02 20:49:00
Yesterday it was Joe Andrew, a former DNC Chair, who withdrew his support from the Clinton’s and endorsed Obama. Today it’s nothing as exciting as becoming a turncoat, but it’s still a leg up for the Obama camp.  Paul Kirk, another former DNC Chair has declared his support and endorsement for Sen. Obama. If we ...
Clinton?s Superdelegate Turns Traitor, Heads to Obama Camp
2008-05-01 23:13:00
Joe Andrew, former chairman of the Democratic National Committee, held a news conference Thursday in Indianapolis to announce his support of Obama and to urge other superdelegates to unite behind Obama in order to "heal the rift in our party."  What’s odd about this?  Last year Joe has endorsed the Clinton’s for president! That’s ...
Obama Scores 5 to the Clinton?s 4 in Superdelegate Count
2008-05-01 14:58:00
Both Barack and the Clinton’s are inching towards victory in these days before the North Carolina and Indiana primaries on May 6. Picking up a hand full of of superdelegates, Barack added 5 votes to his still-in-the-lead total of 1730.  The Clinton’s fared almost as well, scraping together an additional 4 superdelegates to push ...
Obama?s Secret Deals for Superdelegates
2008-04-30 21:15:00
Washington insiders say that Barack Obama has been secretly collecting Superdelegates in numbers that far outstrip those committed to the Clinton’s.  In fact, common wisdom indicates that the battle is really over. Would somebody PLEASE tell Hillary and Billy? Obama backer predicts victory in Hill war By AMIE PARNES & JOSEPHINE HEARN ...
Clinton Proposes Ill Advised Gas-Tax Relief - Decries Obama for Not Jumping
2008-04-28 22:19:00
Hillary Clinton proposed one of the worst possible plans to provide relief to the casual consumer regarding the price of gas.  She proposed to eliminate the federal tax collected on each gallon of gas during the summer months.  The current Federal tax on gasoline is 18.4 cents a gallon.  The total cost of ...
Clinton Calls Election Process a Game
2008-04-27 20:35:00
In a recent speech, the losing Democratic contender attacked Barack Obama for accepting contributions from oil company executives.  Which I find is an odd tactic for her to use since she has accepted MORE money from big oil that Barack. Trying to put Obama in a bad light she apparently forgot that she has ...
The Clinton?s - Blasted by Top Dem in DC!
2008-04-25 18:06:00
As the Clinton’s continue their hate filled and racist smear campaign of Barack Obama and his bid for the Democratic Nomination Candidacy, other Democratic politicians are sitting up and taking notice. House Democratic Whip James Clyburn, of South Carolina has used the words “disingenuous” and “scurrilous” to describe the underhanded tactics used by ...
North Carolina says NO! to Obama Attack TV Ad
2008-04-25 15:09:00
In a surprising turn of events, TV stations in North Carolina will not be airing an ad that attacks Presidential hopeful Barack Obama. Featuring snippets from the infamous ‘God Damned America’ video by the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, the ad has been deemed too offensive and to ‘racist’. It’s about time that someone said no ...
Late Night Truthiness
2008-04-25 00:34:00
Jay Leno:   “Well, even though she won yesterday, you know, Hillary Clinton’s campaign now $10 million in debt. … Yeah. And ironically, her big issue: ‘I can handle the economy.’”
US Democrats in Civil War?
2008-04-24 18:45:00
That’s the take of the English news rag, The Independent.  The article published yesterday in The Independent is called "Clinton victory extends Democrats’ civil war". Thinking bout that headline has caused me to reaffirm my comment from yesterday, "I am becoming afraid that the party division that Hillary is cramming down our throats will ...
The Clinton?s Collect $8M in Contributions - Still in the Hole
2008-04-24 15:01:00
Following the Clinton’s narrow victory in the Pennsylvania Primary on Tuesday, the Clinton’s coffers saw a steady trickle of incoming cash.  Reporting 8 million in donations, the campaign is still $2 million in the hole by my count. I hate to belabor the point, but after the excesses of the Bush era, wouldn’t we ...
Hillary flogs dead horse, presses on to Indiana
2008-04-23 21:08:00
Yesterday the Clinton’s picked up the ‘win’ in the state of Pennsylvania.  With almost a 10 percent lead over Barack in that states primary, the Clinton’s have decided that splitting the Democratic Party in two at this late stage of the game, isn’t reason enough to quit gracefully. Bringing their depleted war-chest and ‘Politics ...
NY Times Chides the Clinton?s for ?Politics of Fear? Campaign
2008-04-23 21:06:00
The NY Times, which so far has been a staunch supporter of the Clinton’s bid for the Democratic Presidential nomination has gone on record today with a scathing condemnation of the recent tactics used which do little else than play on the fears of a small sub-set of Americans. In an editorial so aptly entitled ...
Alec Baldwin Endorses Obama
2008-04-22 23:33:00
In what I consider a surprise move, Alec Baldwin has endorsed Barack Obama for President.  I don’t know why I’m surprised at this, but I assumed that Alec was a die-hard Republican who would vote the party line in spite of the quality of the candidate.  Boy, was I wrong. It really behooves you to ...
Hillary Uses "The Politics of Fear" in Ad Campaign
2008-04-22 16:51:00
Hillary’s newest TV ads being shown in Pennsylvania show images of Osama bin Laden and Pearl Harbor while questioning Barack’s ability to lead in times of crisis.  Where she gets the idea that she’s capable of crisis leadership is beyond me. Today, the voters in Pennsylvania have the power to halt her campaign in ...

Traditional Media Endorses Obama
2008-04-21 20:00:00
We are less than 24 hours away from what could be the deciding Primary in the Clinton’s race for the White House.  As the voting citizens of Pennsylvania face off across the battle lines from each other, the old voice of traditional media outlets are encouraging die hard Clinton fans to consider the ...
Obama - Impressed by the Clinton?s? Fact!
2008-04-15 18:13:00
Barack Obama has actually gone on record admitting to admiration for Hillary Clinton!  But on what subjects? Her relentless and manic desire to force feed the American public with an ill-advised universal healthcare plan? No….  Her steadfastness in not allowing the American public to review her Income Tax returns until after they were amended ...
Obama - Elitist? Maybe Not?..
2008-04-14 14:37:00
There has been a lot of media attention regarding some remarks made by Obama regarding ‘guns or religion’.  Speaking about some of the smaller towns hard hit by our current economic plight, Obama was simply referring to the fears and frustrations felt by some many American’s in the face of rising gas prices, rising unemployment, ...
Clinton?s, Got Leadership? Not so Much?
2008-04-09 22:19:00
Amid growing criticism from Democrats on both sides of the fence to call it quits, Hillary is facing challenges much closer to home.  These challenges revolve around her ability (or lack thereof) to run a successful campaign let alone our beleaguered nation. Very much at odds with her TV ‘3:00 am’ ads, the Clinton’s ...
Clinton to Lose Superdelegates to Popular Vote? Ouch!
2008-04-08 14:31:00
In a stunning reversal, Rep. Lynn Woolsey (D-Calif.) has stated that she would withdraw her support of the Clinton’s should they lose the popular vote in California. Her statement indicates that she will cast her superdelegate vote “for the candidate that is chosen not through back-room deals, but by the votes of the ...
Hillary - Cash Strapped Again?
2008-04-04 14:46:00
The most important numbers in this Democratic Primary Election should be the popular vote.  Just how many Americans would like to have Obama or the Clinton’s for president.  Add those numbers up, and pay for Allied Van Lines to pack up a household and move’ em to the White House. But there are so ...
Hillary - The Congressional Sow
2008-04-03 05:49:00
A recent publication of the ‘Pig Book’ by the nonpartisan group Citizens Against Government Waste has listed N.Y. Sen. Hillary Clinton as the ‘new grand national oinker among presidential contenders’.  Inserting more that 280 individual spending projects into otherwise innocent pieces of legislation, Hillary has squandered more than $296.2 million of your tax ...
Clinton?s Supporters Bully Pelosi
2008-03-27 14:07:00
In actions more reminiscent of the fear and intimidation used by our current administration, a gaggle of extremely wealthy Clinton donors posted a letter to Nancy criticizing her view of the way that the superdelegates should commit their votes during the Democratic National Convention. Pelosi has stated that she believes superdelegates should vote ...
Just Who?s Running For President?
2008-03-25 13:15:00
An well known Obama supporter made a comment on his Blog that has drawn a lot of criticism from the Clinton campaign.  Gordon Fischer, a former chair of the Iowa Democratic Party, made a reference to Bill Clinton and his recent comments that put into question Barack’s patriotism.  His quote read: "Bill Clinton cannot ...
Negative Campaigns Continue
2008-03-24 13:23:00
It’s not good enough for either camp, or either party for that matter, to espouse the positive points of their own candidates.  We’re not hearing enough "I’m the best choice because…".  What we’re hearing is "He’s bad because….". I think I’m a pretty average voter, relatively well informed about the two candidates that have ...
Hillary?s resume, full of lies?
2008-03-20 23:00:00
Yesterday, more than 11,000 pages of Hillary’s personal schedules and other documents from her stint as First lady were released by the National Archives.  And they appear to be telling a much different story compared to the one the Clinton’s campaign has been publicizing. Trying to imply that she was present during many a ...
Clinton?s Tax Returns? No Disclosure Imminent! What?s to Hide?
2008-03-18 22:26:00
It doesn’t look like full disclosure and transparency mean anything to the Clinton Campaign.  The call from all sides for the Clinton’s to release their tax returns has been met with unabashed silence, topic changes, lies and every other method of umbrageous deception conceivable. What is it that they don’t want me to know?  ...
Florida Won?t Get Do-Over
2008-03-18 14:23:00
Karen L. Thurman, the Florida Democratic Party chairwoman, has come to the sad realization that she and her party have screwed the Florida Democrats in a royal way. Florida is guilty of giving the national Democratic party the finger and holding their primary election early.  This was after National Chairperson Howard Dean told them ...
Clinton?s break all the rules.
2008-03-16 14:52:00
There are some unwritten rules that have governed a candidates conduct during the primary election of a presidential election.  One of these rules describes not explicitly stating that your opponent is unelectable.  No matter how true that statement is, you just don’t say it. Last Thursday, the Clinton’s chief strategist went on record stating Obama ...
Florida Dems - Vote by Mail Suggested
2008-03-14 14:17:00
The Democratic party of Florida has presented a detailed plan to ‘do-over’ their botched primary election.  The problem?  Everyone from Barack Obama down rejects the proposal. For those of you who forget, the Florida Democratic party decided to hold their elections early in spite of strict party guidelines.  The result is that the national ...
