Rhode Island Sees Foreclosure Rate Triple Within Year
2008-05-14 17:06:00 With just over 1,050 homes in some stage of the foreclosure process during the first three months of the year, Rhode Island?s relatively small market is flooded with foreclosure properties. Many blame the fact that homeowners who get into trouble with defaults now cannot sell or refinance their homes for anything close to what they originally paid for it due to sinking property values. Home values have been falling steadily each month for over a year now, and are expected to continue to do so well into 2008, which will only make it harder for homeowners and contribute to rising foreclosures.

Clinton and Obama Miss Big Opportunities in Texas and Ohio
2008-03-06 06:05:00 On March 4, 2008, Clinton and Obama both missed major opportunities for their campaigns. Clinton needed large margins in Texas and Ohio to close the gap in the delegate lead that Obama has over her. Obama needed to continue his wins to all but assure himself the nomination and bring Senator Clinton one step closer to leaving the race. Tuesday did not accomplish either of these goals for Clinton or Obama. The Obama campaign put Clinton?s net delegate gain from Tuesday at 4. Others say it could only be as large as 12. Tuesday gave Clinton momentum and wins that she desperately needed but was not the net gain she needed in delegates. Clinton won Rhode Island, Texas, and Ohio on Tuesday giving her momentum going into Pennsylvania in April. Obama continues to hold on to a 140 pledged delegate lead over Senator Clinton. The Obama campaign figures that even after Pennsylvania, a state that is more favorable to Clinton, Obama will maintain a 100 delegate lead o...

Hillary Wins Texas, Ohio, and Rhode Island(Hot News Anchors)
2008-03-05 13:02:00 (Hot News Anchors)Well, Hillary Clinton not only won Ohio, but did it by a substantial margin, 56 - 42% with 90% of the vote in. She wins Rhodes Island, and more importantly Texas as well, and in addition to California and New York, this gives her ALL of the big states. If there is a redo of Florida and Michigan, she would win those too. A strong case can be made that Hillary should be the nominee, no longer is this Obama’s race to lose.(Hot News Anchors)You also cannot possibly say now, any of that nonsense about Hillary needing to drop out of the race. Why would somebody who has a clear majority in all of the most populated states drop out? If you look at the overall popular vote in these primaries, it paints her victories even stronger, the caucuses giving the edge to Obama in some districts despite the overall popular vote of the state.One thing that really strikes me is that overwhelmingly in polls the number one issue for voters is the economy. If there is one thing that sta...

Even Rhode Island
2008-03-03 15:04:00 It was evidently a cold evening. Bill Schneider, CNN's top political analyst, stood before an unfamiliar skyline wrapped in an overcoat, covering his expansive bald head with one of those Russian-style fur hats. The coverage bounced between Schneider and some woman looking very warm and comfortable reporting from somewhere in Texas. It took a second to realize that there was really no reason for Schneider to be standing outside while discussing the upcoming Democratic primaries. Most every building in Providence, Rhode Island, does, after all, benefit from some form of central heating this time of year.There was, of course, nothing remarkable about a news organization asking one of its stars to suffer for the sake of a forgettable establishing shot of an unrecognizable city. That is simply life in a visual medium. Instead, what was remarkable was the fact that the network had actually set up shop, at least temporarily, in Providence, of all places. When was the last time any...

Rasmussen - Rhode Island
2008-02-26 15:22:00 Clinton 53% - Obama 38% An interesting poll from a state that nobody is really paying much attention to. But Rhode Island is part of the Mini-Super Tuesday that plays out next week (the other is Vermont). The reality is that the more states Clinton can claim on Tuesday, the more she can suggest that her momentum is back and the more likely it is that she will stay in the race. Even the 21 delegate Rhode Island can be chalked up as a win. Win that and Ohio and she at least comes out with a draw?

Clinton Goes for Broke in Attacks on Obama
2008-02-26 08:55:00 Hillary Clinton (center) Photo by: SEIU International/ FlickrSenator Clinton is apparently no longer looking at a future run for the White House as she continues to pile on attacks at Barack Obama. Clinton?s recent barrage of attacks seem to indicate her determination at trying to destroy a party favorite for her own personal gain. At a campaign appearance in Rhode Island, Senator Clinton mocked Obama for wanting to bring people together. Barack Obama, whether or not he even wins the nomination, is still a major star in the Democratic Party. Senator Clinton?s attacks, which are aimed at destroying him politically and personally, will breed resentment within the party that may not be forgotten. Who is paying the most attention right now to Clinton?s attack lines? Senator John McCain. McCain will be the Republican nominee who will likely be facing Barack Obama in the general election and he is paying close attention. What better line of attack do you have as a candidate than when you ...
