    Tonight, I promise not to do any math.

  2. donviti says:

    or 4n4l $ex

    Note for posterity: modified to calm down search engines.

  3. nemski says:

    DD, if you don’t do the math, who will? Or are we thinking that the other States can do their own math better than Delaware did?

  4. JohnnyX says:

    Mmm…crabcakes….wait, must focus on politics

  5. donviti says:

    damn! you stole my line johnny!

  6. Delaware Dem says:

    Hmmmm…..Woody’s Crabcakes in North East, MD, best in state…..

    /end commercial.

  7. Delaware Dem says:

    If they cannot do math in our nation’s capital region, we are doooooooommmmmeeed.

    Wait…perhaps that explains are massive budget deficits.

  8. donviti says:

    Obama takes Va….

  9. donviti says:

    huckabee and Mccain are in a close race.

    LMAO!

  10. donviti says:

    watching MSNBC, I love listening to Matthews, he’s such an idiot and an obvious biased schmuck.

  11. donviti says:

    Obama stole the Independents from McCain and is making it tight between Mr. Dinosaur-roamed the earth with Jesus and The Surge is working

  12. donviti says:

    Obama has already moved to Madison Wisc for next week.

  13. liberalgeek says:

    Actually, none of them stuck around. I just want to see a BIG win in these primaries.

  14. donviti says:

    Nora O’Donnel looks younger

    Obama takes 48% of the white vote and 55% of white men and almost 50% of White Women.

    To those of you that read the back to of the city paper that’s

    WM and WW

    It could have been LWM and BWW but I’m not sure

  15. donviti says:

    Huckabee is an “attractive” candidate? what?

  16. liberalgeek says:

    I met Nora when she was in town a few years ago. She is hot.

  17. liberalgeek says:

    Huck, not so much.

  18. donviti says:

    I think if Huckabee wins the nominee they should have the debates and the bottom of the grand canyon. with the first question being

    “How old do you think this rock is?”

  19. donviti says:

    I do her with you pushing

  20. donviti says:

    Andrea Mithcell-Greenspan.

  21. donviti says:

    gov rendel doesn’t like black people

  22. nemski says:

    That 50% for White Women is higher than usual right?

    I thought it was Clinton 60%, Obama 40% with regards to White Women.

    If so, this is big.

  23. donviti says:

    So she say’s that the gov Rendel comments if taken out of context could be a big problem and she SHOWS only HALF of the fucking comment!

    fucking whore

  24. Kayne West says:

    Hillary doesn’t like black people.

  25. donviti says:

    Yes, He is stealing WW.

    I see a commercial coming out of Tennessee….

  26. donviti says:

    Eugene Robinson = token BM

  27. donviti says:

    Kayne? are you Kanye’s brother?

  28. jason330 says:

    Any news?

  29. donviti says:

    Rachel Maddow = Token Manly Woman that your not sure if she’s lesbian but wouldn’t fuck

  30. donviti says:

    any news?

    Kayne West visits our blog!

  31. donviti says:

    pat buchannan = token idiot

  32. jason330 says:

    Dv I’m going to put that awesome post above away for now? Okay?

    it deserves it’s own space.

  33. donviti says:

    according to Pat Buchannan Virginia has Marxists. Unreal.

  34. donviti says:

    word go for it

  35. nemski says:

    All I can say is that if the Latinos give Hillary Texas next week, they’re out.

  36. donviti says:

    going to try and watch fox…

  37. donviti says:

    out of the country? that’s funny

  38. liz allen says:

    rense.com…see what the brits have on Obama…and the vietnamvets against mccain.

  39. nemski says:

    From the NYT:

    Mr. Obama ran up the numbers in Virginia among groups that have long expressed support for him — independents, college graduates and the affluent. But he also did well with white men; in fact a majority of white men sided with Mr. Obama over Mrs. Clinton. Looks like women in Virginia went for Mr. Obama.

  40. nemski says:

    Nah, I was just thinking out of the party. I still need someone to do my lawn.

  41. donviti says:

    obama attended a bachelor party, big deal.

  42. donviti says:

    someone does your lawn? I’ve seen your lawn and you should fire that guy

  43. nemski says:

    Hey, Jason, when you are going to donate the money to Obama?

  44. liberalgeek says:

    huck is leading, but I don’t have any context for where the numbers are coming from.

  45. nemski says:

    thanks dv, I just spit up sunflowers seeds all over my desk.

  46. donviti says:

    Michelle Bernard is Center Right. At least Tweety called her out early.

    but her tag say’s Independent Voice…

  47. donviti says:

    I guess If I stopped peeing on it though, that could help

  48. donviti says:

    I will buy a beer for the first person that has never commented but reads this blog

  49. donviti says:

    FNC has no primary coverage. How funny is that.

  50. nemski says:

    Just found the Rendell shit.

    “You’ve got conservative whites here, and I think there are some whites who are probably not ready to vote for an African-American candidate,” Rendell told the editorial board of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette in remarks that appeared in Tuesday’s paper.

    Fucking unbelievable. I have lost all respect for the man.

  51. liberalgeek says:

    59% is pretty nice, but I really wanted 70%…

  52. donviti says:

    but they are going to talk about the pregnancy suit that suicide bombers are wearing.

    I shit you not. lol, what a channel man.

  53. nemski says:

    Mike Protack reads this blog, but doesn’t post here or anywhere.

  54. liberalgeek says:

    Well, aren’t there really some white people that aren’t ready for a black President? For that matter the same people aren’t ready for a woman…

  55. donviti says:

    who’s mike protack?

  56. nemski says:

    hey dv, remember what romney told us: if the republicans lose in november, the terrorists win.

  57. donviti says:

    yes, but you know the media has been waiting for someone to say it. That gives them the foot in the door to blow the story up into off shoot pieces.

  58. nemski says:

    Is it ironic that Rendell is Jewish? Just asking.

  59. donviti says:

    Wasn’t FSP and Dave Burris all hard for Romney?

  60. liberalgeek says:

    CNN does have some cool tech…

  61. donviti says:

    I would think Irony would be an Italian Jew

  62. nemski says:

    From the NYT: Mr. Huckabee did best with voters who consider themselves very conservative and listen to conservative talk radio.

    McLovin’ it.

  63. donviti says:

    but they are so awful!

    I’m watching them right now too. They annoy me with all the “strategists” they put on.

    Why don’t they just say when they are having people on Clinton’s payroll speaking (Paul Bagula)

  64. liberalgeek says:

    Obama is doing well in Charlottesville. And his lead seems to be widening…

  65. donviti says:

    Lou Dobbs has bad teeth…

  66. nemski says:

    I thought Lou Dobbs was dead.

  67. donviti says:

    wait! he got them fixed! holy shit! when did that happen?

    that motherfucker, he used to have all kinds of fucked up lower teeth.

  68. liberalgeek says:

    He is dead, the mortician fixed them.

  69. donviti says:

    here we go Gov Rendell…..all fucking night man

  70. nemski says:

    Chris Matthews asked if he could editorialize. LOL!

  71. liberalgeek says:

    Wait… Obama is black?

  72. donviti says:

    I will give MSNBC credit and CNN they say Black. Not African American….

  73. nemski says:

    lg, apparently not only can black people vote, they can run for office too.

  74. liberalgeek says:

    What race is the tan guy on Fox?

  75. nemski says:

    MD polls are open till 9:30PM now

  76. nemski says:

  77. donviti says:

  79. donviti says:

  90. donviti says:

    Here they go with the pregnant bombers thing.

    good god, he emphasized could, but then went on to say could use in the US.

    Oh my they are doing an interview on it. What a joke

  91. liberalgeek says:

    Son: and 2 on the Republican side?
    Wife: well 3…

    I like Jeff Toobin…

    But not in that way…

  102. liberalgeek says:

    No exit polling in DC?

  103. donviti says:

  104. liberalgeek says:

    McCain is going to win VA

  105. donviti says:

    CNN reminds me of their approach to the War. all tech stuff.

    I wonder when they start talking about the firepower of each district in Va and DC

  106. liberalgeek says:

    I gotta get me one of those CNN TV’s

  107. nemski says:

    Ed Rendell just said that black voters are not ready to vote for a black candidate.

  113. donviti says:

  120. jason330 says:

    Dv knows how to push ones buttons.

  121. liberalgeek says:

    I break out in hives after 3 mins of FNC.

  122. nemski says:

    Viriginia went to Obama big.

    MD is closing late.

    And they are learning how to count in DC.

  123. liz allen says:

    I was trying to post articles by Hank Roth…http://pnews.org/archives….there are several articles on obama…that are not favorable.

  124. donviti says:

    i think fox news is biased

  125. jason330 says:

    Barack Obama Projected to Win DC

    I projected that two weeks ago.

  126. donviti says:

    is it me or does liz always come in with her own agenda?

  127. jason330 says:

    Nemski –

    How big is big? 60/40 or better?

  128. donviti says:

    do you think they draw straws to see who gets to follow Hillary at Fox?

  129. jason330 says:

    Liz was on the Obama band wagon for a few days at least,.

  130. donviti says:

    nemski’s wife tells him 3 inches is big so he doesn’t get his feelings hurt

  131. liberalgeek says:

    Liz, your link is dead, so I guess we will never see it… Who do you like? I see you either support Obama or bash him. Do you ever hold an opinion for more than 10 minutes?

  132. jason330 says:

    You know, as I was typing that I was thinking, “this is a mistake.”

  133. donviti says:

    when they flash “conservative” voters are they Dave Burris Conservatives? you know. the ones that say they are conservative, but are fine with bigger government, corporate bailouts and pork?

  134. donviti says:

    I’m going to throw a rock at that monitor on CNN.

    i get it, move on, Christ who cares.

  135. jason330 says:

    Are any DE conservtive blogs live blogging?

    I can’t find one.

  136. donviti says:

    CNN keeps saying rural white voters are in favor of Hillary

    I think that is code for anti black union supporters

  137. liberalgeek says:

    Russert talking about how Obama might steal WI from McCain. And if McCain loses VA, he won’t be able to eliminate Huck until May!

  138. donviti says:

    McCain Conservatives? Or Carper Conservatives? or even Bush conservatives

  139. jason330 says:

    McCain and Huckabee tied at 46 percent apiece

    Go HUCKEE!!

  140. liberalgeek says:

    Don’t break the monitor. I love that thing. I want it…

  141. liberalgeek says:

    Indies don;t like THE MAVERICK.

  147. liberalgeek says:

    There aren’t enough delegates between now and May for McCain to lock it up if Huck wins VA.

    Buchanan is freaking out.

  148. jason330 says:

    According to Norah O’Donnell on MSNBC, support among White men was key to Obama’s projected win.

    Is it me or does it seem like the media is stuck in 1965 or something?

  149. jason330 says:

    #152 AWESOME!

  150. donviti says:

    trying to watch Karl Rove

  151. jason330 says:

    Oh I would love to hear Huck roaming the country trashing McCain for two solid months.

  152. jason330 says:

    I wonder if McCain regrets his WV strategy of giving votes to Huck to knock out the flipster?

  153. donviti says:

    Karl Rove is trying to call McCain a Conservative funny

  154. jason330 says:

    BTW – I got my press credentials. They totally kick ass.

  155. donviti says:

    How can Fox take on Karl Rove in this election season and expect to gain viewers?

  156. jason330 says:

    Send me ya’lls pictures.

  157. liberalgeek says:

    will do…

    BTW, what’s up w/ FSP today?

  158. jason330 says:

    A Center-Right Look at the First State

  166. jason330 says:

    What did it say befor? My memory is shot to hell.

    The spin off is A MONEY GRAB. He is going to flip it to Micro-soft for some big bling in a year or so. Mark my words. You heard it here first.

  167. jason330 says:

    Hey geek,

    remember my email to the editorial page editor Sweeney?

    He wrote back


    The answer to your question is no.
    Interesting suggestion though — not the editing part, the McDowell part.
    Cheers,
    John S.

  168. nemski says:

    just got back . . . did Clinton suspend her campaign yet?

  169. jason330 says:

    Nemski rules!

  170. nemski says:

    From the NYT:

    And in the midst of this bad news for the Clinton camp, there’s word that Mike Henry, Mrs. Clinton’s deputy campaign manager, has resigned, campaign aides say.

    Everything is coming up Obama.

  171. liberalgeek says:

    Not yet, but some of her staff are suspended.

  172. nemski says:

    LOL, great response from the NJ.

  173. liberalgeek says:

    I think we should do another thread…

  177. Rebecca says:

    Hillary is in ElPaso tonight, walking on past next Tuesday’s race in Wisconsin. She’s got the same folks advising her as Gore & Kerry. Too bad.

  178. jorg says:
