Party People in the House
John Norris Brown on Democratic Party candidate selection: A few months ago, I would have predicted the superdelegates to go with the most electable candidate, then unquestionably Barack Obama. Given whats happened since then, I don’t know if he can still play that card. I’ll go ahead and make another bold prediction… The Republicans will [...]
Dream Ticket? Whose Dream Is This?
When MLK said that he had a dream that little black boys and little white girls would one day hold hands run on a presidential ticket together, is this what he had in mind? If so, we should stop referring to him as a civil rights leader and change his title to Republican strategist. Hillary [...]
Stupor Tuesday
What a stinker. Lot’s of folks around the office are talking about the primaries today. It’s strange to me that so many people don’t pay attention until the day of. Anyway, here’s a quick roundup of what some of the blogs I frequent are saying this morning… Music City Bloggers is taking a poll. It [...]
CNN Debates at Reagan Library
This was basically a sham. We got, literally, 10 minutes of McCain and Romney arguing over semantics. Whether or not Romney used the word “timetable” as a reference to troop withdrawel or a reference to milestones. Is that really what the debate is about? I could have sworn I was watching two high school girls [...]
McCain v. Hilly
Looks like a done deal, which really scares me. I’ve had to hold my nose and vote Republican several times when I didn’t really want to. I’m not sure I’ll be able to do it this time. Either way, I’d essentially be voting for Democrat. But maybe this is a good thing.  Maybe people will finally [...]
Reports From New Hampshire
Rogel packed up the whole family and carted them from New York to New Hampshire to participate in the primaries. Â He’s reporting back some of his experiences, and a couple of funny anecdotes: In the background my wife listen to a conversation between a Ron Paul supporter and a McCain supporter – The Ron Paul [...]
Ron Paul and Wolf Blitzer on 12/2
Here are the two parts of Ron Paul’s interview with Wolf Blitzer last night. He gets to cover a lot of ground in this interview–Iraq, monetary policy, globalism, taxes, and fund raising. I also received Dr. Paul’s newsletter today that addresses a great point regarding last week’s debates mainstream politicians NEVER attack an opponent they [...]
Ron Paul Hits a Fund Raising Grand Slam
From Reason Ron Paul’s campaign confirms that it collected $5,080,000 in the third quarter of fundraising. Not only that, but he’s also gaining momentum, unlike all the other major candidates. We can consider him a major candidate now, right? He raised just as much as McCain in the 3rd quarter and has more cash on [...]
Blogging The Iowa Debate Part IV
McCain’s answer on Vice-Presidential powers was actually pretty funny. “Only one President.” That is a strong answer. Guiliani sounds like he’s pretty comfortable with Cheney’s roll, and Romney is defending G.W. Bush’s use of Cheney, saying it is entirely up to him. If I were President, I’d have the Vice President make sure that I [...]
Blogging The Iowa Debate Part II
Getting a new post going here since they’ve decided to move to domestic issues. Huckabee is now in favor of nationalized health care. Why can’t this just be left up to the individual states? Huckabee buddy, I hate to tell you this, but there is way more money in illness than there is in health [...]
