Republicans Just Can’t Fake It
After watching the first night of the Democratic National Convention I was impressed by how “on message” the Dems were. I also couldn’t help but draw comparisons between what I saw last night and what I saw last week – And here’s where I’ve arrived: Republicans just can’t fake it for Mitt Romney.
Wisconsin Dems Set Up Offices With A View
Via TPM: Access to the state Capitol building in Wisconsin has now been heavily restricted, so some Democrats are providing a solution to members of the public who can’t get to assembly members’ offices: They’re bringing their offices to them. “Obviously there was a court order to open this building and anybody with a brain […]
Dear Dr. Liberal: Storytime!
Dear Dr. Liberal:
So a Republican male centerfold beats a Democrat in Massachusetts and its the end of the world for Democrats. While late last year a Democrat beats a teabagger in historically strong Republican Congressional district and there wasn’t this cry of anguish from the Republicans.
Why are the Democrats the biggest bunch of spineless reactionaries around? Or, in Dr. Liberal terms, why are most Democrats douchenozzles and run with the fight gets tough?
Sincerely,
A Democrat with a Spine
I Wasn’t Sure How I Felt About Panetta Until…
Dianne Feinstein and Jay Rockefeller – two of Bush’s most ardent enablers – came out against him. Now, just like Glenn Greenwald, I’m lovin’ the pick. Spencer Ackerman reports that Sen. Dianne Feinstein is upset with the selection of Panetta, petulantly complaining that she wasn’t consulted in advance and that it would be best to have […]
Why Obama Looks So Buff…
Take a look at the competition. Fair warning: I can’t decide what looks worse, Nancy Reagan in a bathing suit (pre-mastectomy) or the untimely picture of Bill Clinton and the sea of temptation.
Lieberman’s second trip to the woodshed
Harry Reid will be meeting today with Joe Lieberman. I’m not sure what will happen, but I sure know what I want to happen. I want Lieberman stripped of his chairmanships, and I realize this may be viewed as cutting off my nose to spite my face. Sorry, can’t help it. I don’t trust Lieberman to […]
Is Hillary Finally Free?
I wonder how many of Hillary’s life and political decisions were tied to a desire to be President. Would she have left Bill? Would she have voted against the war? Would she have triangulated her position on welfare and poverty? I’m serious. She has amassed a huge amount of political capital and I think is […]
I Wish Al Gore Had Been Appointed President
Al Gore has a new slideshow on climate change. He has some stunning updates to his Inconvenient Truth. It is a 28 minute video, but it is chock full of good data and some pretty funny commentary. Even better, it can be downloaded and there is even an iPod ready download.
The Incredible Shrinking Republican Base, or
Who Wants to Be a Republican? This article in today’s NJ documents the increasing weakness of the DE Republican party, noting the serious shift in voter registration from R to D this year. It seems that much of the reasons for the shift are a perception of more excitement on the D side (both for […]
Franken Takes the Lead in MN
Al Franken is now polling ahead of Norm Coleman in the race for Senator of Minnesota. I have been a huge Al Franken fan for a long time, and I’m overjoyed to think that he might actually get to be the Senator from his home state. For a great time pick up any of his […]
