Leaving Linton aside for a moment
2008-04-28 14:09:00 It looks like today's big news swept away most of the other would-be Brontë news.The Coastal News posts about this evening's event: "An Evening of Opera" will be presented at Coastal Carolina University's Spring Choral Concert on Monday, April 28 at 7:30 p.m. in Wheelwright Auditorium.Brontëites in the area might be interested in the programme: The program will include selections such as "Carmen," "La Traviata," "The Magic Flute" and "The Gondoliers." More contemporary operas will also be included, such as Aaron Copland's "The Tender Land," Kurt Weill's "Street Scene" and Bernard Herrmann's "Wuthering Heights."A couple of blogs: Peace & Wisdom posts about Charlotte Brontë's take on Jane Austen. And Jin from The Blind Sisters reviews Wuthering Heights.Categories: Alert, Music, Opera, Wuthering Heights

Andrew Lincoln as Linton
2008-04-28 13:36:00 We read in The Independent about a new name for the new Wuthering Heights film project. We had a writer: Olivia Hetreed, a director: John Maybury and a Cathy: Natalie Portman. Now we have a Linton: Andrew Lincoln.Like many British actors before him, Andrew Lincoln finds plying his trade across the pond can be a demanding experience. The blokeish star, best remembered for his role in cult series This Life, is currently working on an as-yet untitled TV series with Men In Black creator Barry Sonnenfeld. "It was very difficult though, I have to admit," he told me at a recent party in aid of Barnados. "It's not just the accent, it's completely different culturally. It's like playing baseball. You are under so much pressure to get the take right – three strikes and you're out. It has been more like controlling one's own fear rather than acting." No matter, since Lincoln will be back working on these shores soon. He informed me he's just been ...

Sen. Hillary Clinton backed by Dubai Financier?
2008-02-08 08:32:00 Dick Morris appeared on Fox & Friends during the 6am hour (CST), putting forth his idea of where the mysterious $5 million deposited into Sen. Hillary Clinton's campaign fund may have derived.According to Morris, Sen. Clinton has been working side-by-side a Dubai financier, who has reportedly set aside a financial arrangement that provides a payout of $1-5 million each year. The speculation is that the Clintons have worked for a "buyout," which would provide a larger amount of money upfront. Morris believes the recent $5 million dumped into Clinton's campaign war fund may have come from this exact source.I have no personal sources to back this up and hate speculating and/or mudslinging. But, since Fox News is "fair and balanced," I have to take their word for what it is, right?!!? ; )

Obama and Clinton Raise Big Cash
2008-02-08 08:09:00 Prompting Clinton's financial woes after she gave her campaign $5 million, the campaign launched a $3 million in three days effort. That goal was matched in hours, and the campaign uped the ante to $6 million in three days. Now comes word it is $7 million in three days. Today the campaign announced it raised $6.4 million since Super Tuesday and over $7.5 million since February 1.Still, Barack Obama was able to out-raise Hillary Clinton and his campaign announced a $7.6 million haul since Super Tuesday. A testament to his the dedicated support from his supporters.It goes to show, all you have to do is ask.The fundraising was particularly important for Clinton and she immediately went up with ads in Washington, Maine and Nebraska.
Karl Rove Predicts Sen. Hillary Clinton Will be Democratic Nominee
2008-02-08 07:44:00 Presently, both Sen. Barack Obama and Sen. Hillary Clinton are in a dog-fight to win states through hard-core primary and caucus voting, while also trying to attract delegates and superdelegates en route to the magic number of total delegates needed to become the Democratic party presidential nominee.Last night on Hannity & Colmes (yes, I actually watch Fox News regularly now!), Karl Rove broke down his analysis of the upcoming Democratic primary and caucus elections, forecasting Sen. Clinton as the party's overall winner.I'm still unsure if his analysis is dead-on, or if he is trying to "persuade" Americans into choosing Sen. Clinton, knowing darn-well that Sen. Clinton just doesn't resonate well with the average American, which may increase the odds a Republican nominee can win the general presidential election.In the meantime, the Obama Camp must IMMEDIATELY target and increase its emphasis with all Latino voters, target Texas, target Ohio and continue the grassroots effor...

Obama Advisers Foresee a Delegate Draw With Clinton
2008-02-08 03:12:00 By Catherine Dodge and Alex TanziFeb 7, BloombergBarack Obama's advisers are anticipating the possibility of a Democratic presidential race deadlocked past the last primary, and the outcome may hinge on a fight over whether delegations from Florida and Michigan get seats at the party's national convention in Denver.One scenario prepared for the Illinois senator's campaign and released inadvertently yesterday with another document projects Obama will end up in June with 1,806 of the delegates who select the party's nominee to 1,789 for New York Senator Hillary Clinton. That is short of the number needed to win the nomination.Obama, speaking with reporters traveling to Omaha on his campaign plane, said he hadn't seen the document. ``I think it's going to be close,'' he said of the nomination battle. ``Down to the wire.''A candidate needs half of the total delegates plus one. Right now, that figure is 2,025. Any additional convention delegates would raise the amount needed to...
Conservatives for Hillary Clinton
2008-02-07 22:08:00 With Mitt Romney out of the race for the Republican Presidential nomination, we are left with no decent candidates on the Republican side. That leaves us with three choices: vote Democrat, vote third party, or stay home. The best way to prevent McCain from being elected to lead a third Nixon administration is to vote against him, and to vote for a candidate with a chance of defeating him. This rules out abstaining or voting for a third party. One candidate on the Democrat side is a better choice than McCain: Hillary Clinton. On her worst days, Hillary Clinton displays more principle than John McCain ever could. I may not be proud to support Hillary, but she would at least make a better President than John McCorrupt, Mike Huckster, or Barack H. Christ. Today Conservatives for Hillary Clinton is being established for the good of the United States of America. The goals of Conservatives for Hillary Clinton are to help Hillary secure the Democrat Presidential nomination, and th...

Clinton dips into pocket to keep up with Obama
2008-02-07 17:39:00 WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democrats Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton looked ahead on Wednesday to a long and bruising presidential battle, and Clinton said she loaned $5 million of her own money to the costly fight to keep pace. Republican John McCain, still facing conservative opposition, promised to unite his party as his coast-to-coast "Super Tuesday" wins in key states put him on the verge of clinching the nomination and capping a stunning political comeback. "I do hope that at some point we would calm down a little bit and see if there are areas that we can agree on for the good of the party," the Arizona senator told reporters in Phoenix before a speech on Thursday to a conference of conservative activists in Washington. Obama and Clinton battled to a draw on "Super Tuesday," with Obama winning 13 states and Clinton eight, including the big prizes of California and New York. Their delegate tally was almost even, propelling the fight toward the next round of seven Democratic co...
McCain Widens Delegates Lead, Clinton Lends Self Cash
2008-02-07 17:26:00 Sen. John McCain padded his commanding delegate lead in the Republican presidential race Wednesday and urged conservative critics to cut him some slack. In a Democratic surprise, Hillary Rodham Clinton disclosed she'd lent $5 million to her cash-short campaign. "And I think the results last night proved the wisdom of my investment," said the former first lady, one day after trading victories with Barack Obama in a Super Tuesday string of contests from coast to coast. The competition for Republican delegates was a runaway. Nearly complete returns from Super Tuesday left McCain with 707 delegates, nearly 60 percent of the 1,191 needed to win the nomination at the national convention in St. Paul, Minn., this summer. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney had 294, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee 195 and Texas Rep. Ron Paul 14. Despite steadily lengthening odds, neither Romney nor Huckabee offered any hint they were ready to exit the race. McCain, the Arizona senator, said the n...
Clintons to borrow themselves $5 million
2008-02-07 16:30:00 This is yesterday's news (quite litterally). But I also read today that Bill in the process of selling off some business interest that will net him about $20 million... which in turn he intends to give/borrow to the campaign. Also, it sounds as if Clinton staffers are no longer being paid and should not expect to be paid for at least the rest of February. This seems almost surreal. The Clintons and their big money machine have run out of money and are being outraised over 2-1 right now by Obama. From what I have gathered they are already looking towards March 4th as the next date where they really expect to do well. In fact, they are apparently allocating most of their advertising resources to Ohio and Texas contests on the 4th. But that strategy almost seems Guilianish as there are another 10 contests taking place in February that will award another 447 pledged delegates. Is it really possible that they don't have the money to compete? The Clintons?

Clinton loans herself $5 million
2008-02-07 16:27:00 Democrat Hillary Clinton loaned her presidential campaign $5 million in January, the New York senator said Wednesday."I loaned the campaign $5 million dollars from my money," she said at a press conference at her Arlington, Virginia headquarters. "I loaned it because I believe in this campaign and I think the results last night proved the wisdom of my investment." Earlier Wednesday, Clinton spokesman Howard Wolfson confirmed reports Clinton had lent her campaign money in January, and said "The loan illustrates Sen. Clinton's commitment to this effort and to ensuring that our campaign has the resources it needs to compete and win across this nation." The news comes days after Barack Obama's campaign announced it had raised $32 million in January alone. Clinton campaign Chairman Terry McAuliffe later said the Clinton campaign raised less than half that in the same period — about $13.5 million. The $5 million Clinton loaned to herself was in ...

U.S. vote puts McCain ahead; Clinton, Obama draw
2008-02-07 11:39:00 By John Whitesides, Political Correspondent WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democrats Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton faced a protracted battle while John McCain took charge of the Republican race after the "Super Tuesday" presidential nominating contests in 24 U.S. states. In the biggest day of voting to choose party candidates who will contest the election to succeed President George W. Bush in November, Obama won 13 states and Clinton took eight. Clinton's wins included the key prizes of California and New York, making for a virtual draw in the hard-fought Democratic duel. McCain won nine contests, including victories in California and the Northeast, to take a commanding lead in the Republican race. "Tonight, I think we must get used to the idea that we are the Republican Party front-runner for the nomination," McCain told supporters in Scottsdale, Arizona. "And I don't really mind it one bit."

Chelsea Clinton In Polling Place As It Opens - Big Mistake
2008-02-06 20:45:00 Personally, I don't think it's a big deal but ABC News does as does the Drudge Report and WTNH in Connecticut. It seems that Senator Clinton and Bill Clinton's daughter Chelsea Clinton was delivering coffee and donuts to the poll workers in Connecticut just before polls opened, but remained until a few minutes after they were open, thus violating a law in that state prohibiting the apperance of a campaign worker or campaigner in or within 75 feet of a polling place. I don't think she's going to jail for this, nor should she. Here's the video at ABC. BUT...Why "butter up" polling place workers? What about all of the problems with vote tampering allegations? Now, I wonder. Could coffee and donuts buy a vote fix?

OBAMA AND CLINTON IN DEAD HEAT FOR DELEGATES
2008-02-06 20:00:00 With Sens. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton almost even in delegate counts, the two Democratic presidential candidates will focus on several weekend contests and then a trio of primaries in the Washington area next Tuesday.Super Tuesday delivered a split decision for the Democrats. CNN estimates showed Clinton earned a handful more delegates than Obama, who surprised observers by taking states where the senator from New York had large polling leads until recently. The latest estimate gave Clinton 582 of the 1,681 delegates at stake Tuesday, compared with 562 for Obama. It will take time to determine the final distribution because of complicated formulas.CNN's overall count showed Clinton leading at this point in delegates with 823 to Obama's 731. They'll need 2,025 to secure their party's nomination.Both candidates fly to Washington on Wednesday afternoon for Senate votes, but the next day Obama holds a major rally in New Orleans ahead of this weekend's Louisiana primary.Washin...

Hillary Clinton accepts Fox News - WTTG debate invite
2008-02-06 17:58:00 Before the results of the Super Tuesday primaries and caucuses became known, presidential candidate Hillary Clinton accepted an invitation to debate Barack Obama in Washington, D.C. on Fox News Channel. The planned debate would also air, likely on a same night tape-delayed basis, this Monday evening (February 11) on local Fox-owned station WTTG-5. To date, Barack Obama has not responded to the Fox invite. Up until this point, the major Democratic presidential candidates had boycotted Fox News Channel debates, citing the outlet's perceived conservative bias. Clearly, Clinton has decided that she needs to put aside her obvious distaste for the channel to reach this region's and other future voters.As the unity candidate that he is trying to be, I hope that Obama can put aside his own objections to Fox News and accept the debate offer as well. It should be granted that my party's objections to Fox News Channel are completely valid ones. That said, this race is too important, this re...
