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 [...]

I’m quite sure all our Clinton supporting readers are on HRC’s email list, but on the off chance that some didn’t get the email from Maggie Williams about tomorrow’s event which will be livecast on HillaryClinton.com starting at 12:00 pm edt, — Here’s the email:

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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…

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 [...]

Last night I posted here on the threats by Clinton supporters to vote for John McCain and I said:
As a Clinton supporter and a feminist I find a certain kind of irony in the fact that Clinton supporters are complaining about the sexism that Hillary weathered during her campaign but they are willing to support a [...]

40 years ago today Robert F. Kennedy was assassinated, and the world turned into a darker, meaner place in the decades that followed.
As a young student at Columbia University – off for the summer — I was to join the RFK campaign staff the following week. The spring of 1968 had been exhilarating and tumultuous.

Last night the word of a secret meeting between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama started to eek into the media. The two “ditched their traveling entourages, eluded camera crews across town and startled many of their own advisers as they held their first private meeting since becoming archrivals for the Democratic presidential nomination.”
Jeff Zeleny reports [...]
