Everyone who is anyone, or who thinks they are, or who gets paid to be, seems to agree on one thing; for the good of the Democratic Party the candidate must be decided before the Democratic Convention. Period. What am I missing? Who is this silly putty Democratic Party? Last time I checked it was [...]
With predictions and speculation running rampant, I would like to join the flock. First of all, the ‘blood bath’ fight that experts are referring to inside the Democratic Party that will negatively affect them in the ‘big race’ in November, is hogwash, in my opinion. I wouldn’t have expected two intense candidates, who believe they [...]
I spent all of yesterday in Philadelphia. (And, yes Effie, there are signs up! They were about half and half for Obama and Clinton, one for Ron Paul, and none for McCain.)
I would love to be telling you that I was there for the debate (or whatever that was), but alas, I was not. It [...]
I know you have all experienced this. A TV talk show that makes you talk out loud in your home and wish you could call in. Well, Chris Matthews led a lively discussion yesterday and calling in would not have satisfied me. I wanted HIM to call ME and invite me to be part of the [...]
Yoooo-hoooo! We’re over here! We need some more attention and excitement in Pennsylvania. (I just can’t wait for the debate next Wednesday.)
But, since I am paying attention, I know two things about how busy they are. One - there is going to be coverage of three Senators asking General Petraeus more questions than any Senators in America [...]
I will be curious to see the turnout of voters in PA on April 22. Facts are being convoluted by opinions, yet expressed as truths. With all the Obama delegates calling for Clinton to drop out, as though she is trailing by an impossible distance, and in Patrick Leahy’s words, “because we already know who the [...]
On this 40th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King’s death, I heard a short interview on The Today Show with his son this morning, Martin Luther King III, who is calling on the candidates to speak to him about appointing a cabinet-level “poverty czar” within the first 100 days of “his or her administration”.
In an [...]
Perhaps you already saw this. Perhaps you already know this. But, quite frankly superdelegates are new to me, and there is a whole lot more to them. My friend emailed this article about Superdelegates to me this morning and I found it to be an intersting read. My memory of conventions, back in the day, are people yelling, [...]
If it is nearly impossible for Hillary Clinton to win with recent decisions made by the DNC, then Florida and Michigan DO affect the PA results. We have become less relevant due to bad decisions, a lack of social order, and inaccurate information. I believe that we are being anesthetized by the constant Chicken Little [...]
I’ll try to make this post relevant to our “Primary” topic, but I just have to ask - did anyone catch any of the oil company executives testifying today in Washington? The pure arrogance of their answers and complete disregard toward us “regular people” who have no choice but to buy their oil makes me want to put [...]
