A Woman Has What it Takes to Run for President

It’s been an incredible journey, readers, being here in the blogosphere supporting Hillary Clinton and I have to say although I’ve vowed to jump in and work towards defeating John McCain, the sadness of what could have been with Hillary Clinton as our next president will take a little time to mend. I know that’s something that many of her supporters share. So while I have stressed in the past couple of days, the importance of supporting our nominee,...

Graduation Day and Hillary

Hillary’s going to be in DC speaking to her supporters on Saturday, and we’ll know more about what she plans to do going forward then. I thought a quick letter to her was in order, on the off chance she’s up late and reading the blogs tonight… I’ve written about my son a few times before and – well today was a big day in our family. My little boy graduated from his pre-school this afternoon, complete with caps...

Another Reason Not to Vote for McCain

It seems rather absurd to me that Democrats should have to be reminding Democrats of all the reasons not to vote for John McCain, but sadly there’s the “hell hath no fury” crowd that just doesn’t get it, right now because they are hurt and frustrated and that’s understandable.  As a woman who had her heart set on Hillary Clinton as our first woman president, I feel the same frustration and the anger over the rampant sexism, however, I just...

A new poll shows that a “majority of Democrats think Barack Obama should select Hillary Clinton as his running mate.”  Fifty-four percent of registered Democrats questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll released Friday think Obama should name his rival as his running mate; 43 percent disagreed. The poll is the first national survey conducted since Obama claimed the Democratic presidential nomination Tuesday night, at the end of the primary season. Clinton is expected to announce Saturday that she’s suspending...

Kerry Rival Ends Campaign for Mass. Senate

I’m pleased to report that Jim Ogonowski, who was the Republican’s “leading recruit to challenge” John Kerry, dropped out the race today. Ogonowski came 30 valid signatures short of the 10,000 signatures necessary at the Tuesday deadline to qualify for the September 16 primary ballot. Ogonowski could have mounted a legal challenge or launched a write-in campaign, but opted to pass up the opportunity. Kerry will now be facing little-known Army veteran Jeff Beatty in the general election....

Remembering the Loss: Bobby 40 Years Ago

Via Susie Madrak:   I watched the video above and then I read Blake’s piece below on Bobby Kennedy: A Golden Age That Never Was and I was overwhelmed with a wave of tears and deep sadness. Like Blake, I often wonder what might have been, if we had not lost Bobby 40 years ago… Sphere: Related Content

Dow Slides 394 Points, Oil Surges $11 to Record $138, More Job Loss

The Dow slide 394 points today while “crude oil prices spiked over $138.” There is no relief in sight on the rising oil prices. The pain at the pumps has been excruciating in recent weeks. Today, oil prices “shot up nearly $11 a barrel” and settled “at a record $138.54 on geopolitical jitters, a dollar decline and a forecast that oil would hit $150 by July 4.” Take a look at this graph of oil prices in recent days: Today’s spike...
