The Problem With The Super Delegate Counter

Filed in Uncategorized by on April 8, 2008 9 Comments

Apparently, today Hillary lost a pledged superdelegate and Obama picked up quite a few (from 246-216 v. 245-221, today).  This gets Obama to only a 24 delegate deficit.  The problem is that I cannot seem to find the damn supporting documentation on the numbers.  If anyone knows where that data might be, I’d love to […]

Politifact.com has used Hillary’s schedule and news reports from her years as First Lady to compile this interactive map of her travels.  Now that’s the kind of traveling I would like to do.  I now feel like a travel slacker.  Now word on whether you can search the map for sniper fire incidents.  I want […]

Is Obama a 20footer?

Filed in Uncategorized by on April 6, 2008 18 Comments

My brother has an old school hot rod.  He calls it a 20 footer. Apparently it means that if you get closer than 20 feet you start to see the problems with the paint job and some dents you didn’t notice before.   Well, again I think we need another reminder courtesy of Suburban Guerrilla (who […]

There is an interesting story over at The Carpetbagger Report. McCain’s campaign has been promising to release his medical records for months, but the date keeps getting pushed back. First it was March, then they pushed it to April, now it’s May. Running as the Oldest President in History© it would seem like his health […]

Remember how Obama got slammed for “wink, winking” Canada??

In what could become Hillary Clinton’s own version of the NAFTA-Gate controversy that caused Barack Obama so much trouble a month ago, top Clinton strategist Mark Penn reportedly met on Monday with the Colombian ambassador to discuss a bilateral free-trade deal — something his candidate has publicly opposed. In a case study on the dangers […]

Have you seen the Obama Commercial where he states he doesn’t take money from Oil Companies?

Filed in Uncategorized by on April 1, 2008 14 Comments

Well, it’s pretty crappy add now that I understand the law. Obama can’t take money from oil companies directly because the freaking law says so and has for 100 years. He takes it from the Oil Companies employees though and their spouses. I saw it Monday and was like wow that’s pretty cool of him…until […]

I heard an interview with Ed Rendell on Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me about the need for Democrat unity.  Here is what he told a group of people in Florida:  Whatever happens with the Democratic nomination, roughly half of the Democrats will be disappointed.  After the nominee is determine (whenever that is) the other supporters […]

What a great idea! Clinton is right on point with this one!

The above headline comes from the idiot executives at companies like Countrywide, Bear Sterns and any of the other hundred or so subprime lenders that feasted on ignorant victims.  Why are they rejoicing you ask?  Because of this: The New York senator proposed greater protections for lenders from possible lawsuits by investors, a variation of […]

will this hurt or help him

Filed in Uncategorized by on March 24, 2008 9 Comments

Thoughts?  I don’t know how this hurts him when it comes to independents.  Personally, it is par for the course with Johnny.  All hat and no cattle.   When it comes down to it, he votes right in line with the party.  Sort of like Chuck Hagel, Warner and the rest of the pathetic lot of […]
