Powell Follows Up
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nh_c5bbvmqc[/youtube] This is just remarkable. He reminds everyone that there really is an American middle and the Republicans have quite forgotten what that group expects. (I would also say that this reminds the media that they, too have forgotten what the great American middle looks like, too.) You can see right here why it is […]
Mike Katz for Senate in SD 4: The Interview
This interview was conducted by me, nemski, Pandora and Stella Bluez at Stoney’s up on 202 (best fish and chips this side of the pond!) on Tuesday 14 October. Dr. Mike Katz was great to talk with — he was focused and engaged and you can tell he really cares about trying to accomplish something […]
Bill Maher Plays the Race Card
The usual suspects won’t find this funny, but hey. NSFW, people. Forgot to say the bit starts at about 2:00. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bl3METtGx6U[/youtube] EDIT: This is Your Nation on White Privilege Wink at Pandora!
The Colin Powell Factor
Lawrence O’Donnell speculates today that Colin Powell is ready to endorse. O’Donnell claims that Powell is going to endorse Obama. There has been speculation about this for many weeks — often spoken of as either a game changer for Obama (this would be more than 3 weeks ago) or as an inoculation for some new […]
Terry Spence Hitching His Campaign to Markell?
Nationally, we’ve seen a few endangered Republican candidates openly embrace their associations (real and imagined) with Barack Obama. Unstable Isotope recently reported here a story she had heard about Republicans not including their affiliations on their signage and literature or claiming to be Independent as a way to run from the damaged brand. This is […]
McCain On His Way To Being A Penny Stock
Intrade now shows: Obama at 85 McCain at 15.2 (Be sure to click though to see their EV Predictions map — Obama has 364 votes to McCain’s 174)
New Rules
Some laughter for Sunday night. It’s Bill Maher, so NSFW, I think. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbRkSYWEIaQ[/youtube]
Just When You Think You’ve Seen The Worst
…it actually gets worse: With so much at stake, and time running short, Frederick did not feel he had the luxury of subtlety. He climbed atop a folding chair to give 30 campaign volunteers who were about to go canvassing door to door their talking points — for instance, the connection between Barack Obama and […]
Good News You Haven’t (Really) Heard Yet
BushCo signs the paperwork for a transition. The mess this man leaves means that the next President has a quite unenviable job on his hands. It is really clear that John McCain is not only not up to the job, he doesn’t even care about fixing the mess. Our long national nightmare is almost over. […]
Lee Knows Focusing on the Nextel Lawsuit is a Loser
In this morning’s NJ, there is a long article about the uphill climb Lee has against Jack Markell in the Governor’s race. Tucked inside this article is a telling admission from Judge Lee: He’s not wild about his campaign advisers’ decision to focus on a 1990s class-action suit against Nextel that names Markell among the […]
