I don’t remember ever seeing this much overt bitterness between a party’s nominee for President and the past President of the same party. And this from the Great Messianic Uniter who will inspire all mortals with his inspirational (albeit hollow as an empty piggy bank) message of hope and change.
Bill Clinton gave Obama a nice [...]

Please bear with us today….

Lesson Learned!I was talking to the little girl of a friend of mine the other day
who said she wanted to be President some day.
Both of her parents, who are liberal Democrats, were standing there,
so I asked her, ‘If you were President what would be the first thing

In recent Presidential election cycles, third-party runs for the White House have been credited - - rightly or wrongly - - with changing the outcome in 1992 and 2000.  With two well-known minor party candidates in the 2008 race, the issue of whether minor parties will have an impact inevitably arises.
Bob Barr (Libertarian Party) and [...]

The top two ads on this posting show an advertisement for Adlai Stevenson in 1952 and for Eisenhower in 1952. Stylistically, they resemble advertising jingles for products. They contain little information. They seem to be mostly good old fashioned [...]

Not only did Obama fail to get a bounce out of his selection of Senator Joe Biden as his running mate, according to Gallup Poll Daily tracking from August 23 to August 25, John McCain now enjoys a slight lead at 46% to 44%. Unfortunately, the August 25 poll doesn’t tell us whether Obama got [...]

Timothy Bancroft-Hinchey, at first glance, has authored what appears to be the ugliest attack on an individual public figure ever seen in print. Writing for Russia’s Pravada, Bancroft-Hinchey gets his rant off.
Starting with the face (set in a constant snarl, with a scar for a mouth, lips pursed back in a sneer, piggy eyes looking [...]

Media, including Fox News and the AP, reviewed the Annenberg Challenge files released yesterday after reporter Stanley Kurtz suggested a more-than-neighborly connection between Barack Obama and terrorist William Ayers.An editorial piece at the National Review Online (NRO) brings us up-to-date on the early stages of digging through alleged Obama-Ayers related documents released yesterday to NRO’s [...]

How do we know a Presidential candidate is a natural-born citizen? What proof is required? Is the only qualifier a citizen parent? This may be the first time the U.S. has had a set of circumstances raising valid questions on a candidate’s citizenship.
Earlier this week, a Philadelphia attorney filed a lawsuit against Barack Obama, the [...]

John McCain is getting “Commander-in-Chief” poll numbers over Obama, with veterans favoring him 56% to only 34% for Obama.

I am honored to be here tonight. A proud mother. A proud Democrat. A proud American. And a proud supporter of Barack Obama.
My friends, it is time to take back the country we love.
Whether you voted for me, or [...]

Hillary Clinton gave a pretty good speech. She presented her case for her candidacy, citing all the reasons why she ran and all the aspirations she had for America. And she said that those same reasons were why she now supported Barack Obama. She did outwardly all the things the Obama people wanted her to [...]
