There have been suggestions that Obama should choose Hillary as vice president for a ‘Dream Ticket’. It would actually be more of a nightmare. Clinton would be constantly defying Obama, making deals behind his back, and in effect running her own parallel government. She’s much too outspoken to remain in the background. Edwards would probably [...]

It’s over
May 7th, 2008 · Comments Off · News and Politics
There’s no way Hillary Clinton can get the nomination, and most of her advisors and top Democrats recognize that. She’s officially entered the “psycho ex-girlfriend” stage. She’s starting to sound delusional when she talks about winning. At this point it’s clearly about her ego, not wanting to do what’s right for the country. The best [...]
What we’ve learned from this presidential campaign
April 30th, 2008 · 1 Comment · News and Politics
Things I have learned during this campaign season (Via Daily Kos):
In a race that includes a former First Lady of the United States and a multimillionaire Republican senator rumored to share up to eight residences with his wife, the black guy from Chicago is unforgivably elitist.
Racism in America is caused primarily by black [...]
A disgrace
April 17th, 2008 · Comments Off · News and Politics
Last night’s Democratic debate was one of the worst examples of molehill politics so far in this election cycle. Charles Gibson and George Stephanopolous decided that Americans are more interested in Obama’s “Bitter” remark, Rev. Wright, Clinton’s trip to Bosnia, and whether a candidate wears a flag pin than issues like Iraq, the economy, and [...]
Molehill Politics
April 13th, 2008 · Comments Off · News and Politics
Elizabeth Drew has a perfect term describing the state of the current presidential campaign: Molehill Politics. Instead of talking about real issues, Clinton and McBush are jumping on Obama for what he said in one speech, and that’s the top story in the news.
I don’t believe Obama said anything wrong. He’s absolutely right and this [...]
Hillary’s Money Problems
March 31st, 2008 · 2 Comments · News and Politics
B12 Solipsism points out that Hillary’s money problems have gotten worse.
Hillary Rodham Clinton’s cash-strapped presidential campaign has been putting off paying hundreds of bills for months — freeing up cash for critical media buys but also earning the campaign a reputation as something of a deadbeat in some small-business circles.
A pair [...]

Will Rush Limbaugh Be Indicted for Voter Fraud?
March 28th, 2008 · 1 Comment · News and Politics
The Democrats, especially Obama’s camp, need to make sure this story stays in the news. Via Alternet:
As the board of election in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, where Cleveland is located, launches an investigation into illegal crossover voting in the state’s 2008 presidential primary, a big open question remains unanswered: Will county officials go after the ringleaders [...]

Clinton big dollar donors threaten Pelosi and the DCCC
March 26th, 2008 · Comments Off · News and Politics
Hilary Clinton proves beyond a doubt that she cares more about her own quest for power than she does about the Democratic party and the rest of the country. She doesn’t care who she destroys in her attempt to get elected. She would rather hand the election to McCain than give in to the will [...]

March 19th, 2008 · Comments Off · News and Politics

Since Sen. John McCain effectively sewed up the GOP nomination last month, Republicans have [...]

Is Karl Rove working for Hillary Clinton?
March 5th, 2008 · 2 Comments · News and Politics
Hillary Clinton seems to be running her campaign right out of Karl Rove’s playbook. She’s obsessed at winning at any cost with no regard to how much damage she does to the party and the country. Her tactics pretty much guarantee a Republican win in November when she can praise McCain while attacking Obama:
In a [...]
