Bill Clinton Continues His Tirade, This Time At Clyburn

It seems the real Bill Clinton has stood up throughout this primary campaign.  From early on in the race, Mr. Clinton was attacked for his remarks about Barack Obama, Jesse Jackson, and race, among other things.
These comments led the Democratic House Whip, well respected South Carolina Congressman Jim Clyburn to cry foul on Bill […]

The Magic Number: 46…Now 19.5

UPDATE: It continues to trickle down…it’s now at 19.5 according to NBC News, certainly within striking range once the pledged delegates are won in today’s contests.  This pretty much seals the deal as many other supers have announced that they will officially endorse at 10:00pm ET tonight, once the polls close in MT.
And it’s […]

You Know You Should Stay In When…

Many have complained that Hillary should have dropped out of the race weeks ago.  Many more have complained that her tactics of late have been pretty repulsive.  Still, she’s stayed in the race.
What has she been waiting for?  Divine intervention?  A major endorsement so big it’d send shock waves?  Well, the second may have just […]

Enough: Hillary Gone Mad

Much of the aim of this blog is to post criticisms about all sides, but the recent activities of one candidate have been so shameful that it seems only right to continue to report on a topic that she allows to get worse and worse.

As has been reported over the last few days, following Hillary’s […]

75,000?

Really? 
According to the Portland Police Department, 75,000 people attended Barack Obama’s rally today in Portland, Oregon. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Let me repeat that: 75,000
Let me repeat again, 75,000!
What?  I don’t know what this really says except that it remains to be one of the most impressive gatherings of people to listen to a candidate in history.  I […]

Campaign Videos: Hillary ‘84

Over twenty years ago, Mac Computers made a big splash with their 1984 Orwell-like Super Bowl Ad.
As one of the most famous ads in history, it was only a matter of time before someone spoofed it in the political world. 
This winter, an anti-Hillary supporter must have had a lot of time on their hands.  […]

Edwards Endorses Obama

Well, the day I post an old video of Edwards, he comes out and endorses Obama.  Thus, I think it’s fair that I take credit for the endorsement. 
So, what does Edwards’ endorsement actually mean at this point?  Probably very little, at least from a vote getting sense.  There are only a few states […]

Clinton Wins West Virginia…

In the least climactic race of the season, West Virginia has gone for Hillary Clinton.  Looking at the exit polls, it may get very close to that 40 point margin that I predicted yesterday. 
In even less shocking news, 20% of West Virginia voters openly admitted that race was important to their vote.  These […]

West Virginia Predictions!

That’s right.  It’s Monday night.  What does that mean?  It means Primary Prediction time!
This week is simply not as much fun as the others.  It’s West Virginia, and that’s it.  According to the polls, Clinton has a lead of anywhere from 35-45 points.  Sheesh, it sounds like a tight one, no?
According to polls out […]

Coming to an End

Since North Carolina and Indiana, the news media has started to wonder, when will Hillary drop out?

Tim Russert and others have said that “We now know who the Democratic nominee will be.”  Time Magazine’s new front page even says “And the winner is…”  Finally, Rasmussen, a pollster, has said that they will stop polling within […]

Funniest Campaign Videos: Mike Gravel…What?!

Every election cycle, there is a politician running for President that, well, shouldn’t be running for President.  This year, that man was Mike Gravel, the former Senator from Alaska.
Most recently gaining more fame for being in an Obama Girl commercial, the now Libertarian Mike Gravel originally made this commercial for his website earlier last year.  […]

Operation Chaos

Rush Limbaugh, the wonderful man that he is, has been trumpeting this notion of operation chaos for weeks. 
The theory: Republicans should cross over to vote in the Democratic Primary.  There, they should vote for Hillary Clinton, because it’s the only way to make sure that it looks like Hillary Clinton is still winning, thus […]

John McCain Didn’t Vote For W?

There’s an amazing article over at the Huffington Post this afternoon, in 2000, John McCain nor his wife, Cindy, voted for George W. Bush.
I guess if you call someone the illegitimate father of a black child and accuse his wife of doing drugs and selling them to children, as W did to John McCain and […]

D.C. Madam Suicide Note

A few days ago, we posted the news that the DC Madam, the woman who ran the prostitution ring that has bloodied the waters for many a Washington politician, had committed suicide.  I also posted my initial conspiracy based skepticism. 
Well, today, more news is in.  The contents of her supposed suicide note are in.  […]

IN and NC Prediction Time

LAST MINUTE UPDATED PREDICTIONS: Obama now by 8 in NC, Hillary’s win down to 6 in IN!
That’s right, if it’s Monday, it’s Primary Prediction Time! 
Last time, I don’t think I did so bad, predicting a 7 point Hillary victory in Pennsylvania.  (She ended up winning by 9 points.) 
This time, we’ve got the last […]
