Despite of the fact that he was defeated soundly by large margins in West Virginia and again tonight in Kentucky, Barack Obama is touting that the nomination is within reach (with the help of the Obama-media). But… For many Democrats voting today, there’s a sense of dis-satisfaction that is troubling. Marc Ambinder notes:
In Kentucky, 8 in [...]

Good gracious the wingnuts have lost it. That large turnout for Obama in Oregon the other day wasn’t about him… it was about a local indie band. That’s even more far-fetched than the meme that folks turned out for Springsteen and not Kerry in ‘04 when Springsteen performed at rallies for Kerry. I can’t help [...]

Watch the primary results tonight and see Hillary Clinton bury Senator Obama in one state while he merely wins in another. Never give up!
This fight is not over. The pundits and portions of the party elite want Hillary Clinton to actually give up. They want her to surrender! They want her embarassed and humiliated. I’ve [...]

There are no words to express the sadness over the news on Ted Kennedy’s condition. Doctors from Mass General Hospital announced today that kennedy has “a cancerous brain tumor” that caused the “seizure Sen. Edward M. Kennedy suffered over the weekend.”
“He remains in good spirits and full of energy,” the doctors for the 76-year-old Massachusetts [...]

Much has been said here over the past months about the sexism that Hillary Clinton has confronted throughout her campaign. The WaPo has a piece today on the subject and the fact that Hillary Clinton is vowing to “battle on” with her campaign.
Women of all ages and nationalities push against the rope line carrying books and [...]

You can call this a “post-dated” Round-up. I am very likely preoccupied and taking advantage of my conjugal rights, as SSG Dizzy has very likely arrived from Iraq, for RnR, by now. I decided to post today’s Ten Post Round-Up anyway, so you wouldn’t come a-knockin (wink-wink):

A few weeks ago I received an email asking me if I would take some and check out Jordan Page’s music. Jordan’s not just a talented musician, he’s an activist who uses his music to send a message. ‘Listen‘:
