First, apologies to Clinton supporters who clearly are not undereducated white bigots. Second, apologies to West Virginians who are not undereducated white bigots.

After reading this article in the LA Times about the “troubles” West Virginia may give Barack Obama next Tuesday, I say good riddance to the 65+% of those polled who say they are […]

After Obama’s whumpin’ of Clinton in North Carolina and stronger-than-expected finish in Indiana yesterday, superdelegates, such as Arizona Democratic Chairman Don Bivens, have reached what he calls a “decisional plateau” while Clinton’s campaign continues inexorably downhill. Nice, phrase Don — what the hell is it supposed to mean?! Just jump and declare for Obama and […]

Latte-sipping, Prius-driving, country club card-carrying, blue collar-bashing, metrosexual rocker Bruce Springsteen today announced via a letter to “friends and fans” on his web site that he is endorsing Barack Obama for President. I’m sure his record sales among the working class will plummet to nothing now:

I pulled this from the Comments on a post on Political Wire. It was one of many responses to a poll that suggests that in the general election Clinton would lose Michigan (a very important state for the Dems) to McCain while Obama would win it.
Here is where you are wrong. You underestimate the Independents, […]

Yes, I’ve been AWOL awhile amid midterm hell and my own conference paper, etc., but I couldn’t let pass Keith Olbermann latest tirade, justifiably volleyed, IMHO, at Geraldine Ferraro’s asinine racist comments about Obama (he’s only doing well because he’s black) and at Senator Clinton for not responsibly and utterly denouncing them and actively distancing […]

Within 24 hours, the Obama campaign responded to Clinton’s fearmongering ad with its own parody of it:[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=879o1_pxO0c[/youtube]Nice to see such rapid response — faster than 5 rings.

In another sign of desperation, Hillary Clinton has turned to a “soft” version of the insidious fearmongering (terrorist will get you if you don’t vote for me) ads that the GOP ran against Kerry in ‘04. Of course, predictably, she uses children as the target of terror (”in a dangerous world”) and the concerned mother […]

After Obama’s convincing victory in the Wisconsin primary yesterday, it was nice to read that his 17 points over Clinton was aided by support from two of her strongest sectors: women and union families. Even women who were initially Clinton supporters, such as Mary Liedtke quoted here in the NY Times, switched. May more women […]
