On Sunday I noticed one of the candidates for the Democratic nomination for US Congress ath the Obama rally. It was Karen Hartley-Nagle. I spoke with her this afternoon and, inspite of what I think is a genuine affinity for Hillary Clinton, she told me that Obama’s speech persuaded her that he was the right […]

I had not intended to cover the rally as a journalists and even told Tom Noyes on my way to the event that I wanted to be just an attendee in order to let myself get swept away. But the crowd was so huge and my kids begged off at the last minute – so […]

I consider myself pretty normal.  With the exception of being in the top 1% of the countries best looking men of course.  Something struck me as a little wierd the other day when I went to use the rest room at work.  Before I proceed I would like to give what might be classified as […]

Obama presents a view of governing that is inclusive and relies on Americans to work with their government to solve sobering problems at home and abroad.
