Weathering The Storms
It looks like BHO is weathering the shitstorm that Rev. Wright laid on his lap last week. And interestingly, it also looks like a lot of voters agree with me that the suspension of the gas tax is just a… Continue Reading
2008 Election

Rick Moran is convinced that Obama will get the nomination. Mike Reynolds is convinced he’ll be our next President. And despite everything, the odds are that they’re both right. But you can’t look at a result like this and feel… Continue Reading
Balance Of Power Shifts To The Inside Game
It’s official — HRC cannot win without superdelegate support. There are not enough pledgeable delegates left for her to put away the nomination before the convention. She needs both more pledged delegates and superdelegates than BHO now. BHO theoretically could… Continue Reading
