H/T TexasDarlin for images I could grab easily. I’ve been wanting to write this for a while
In post after post, Big Tent Democrat at TalkLeft suggests that Obama will have an easier time winning New Mexico than Hillary. His latest is here. I actually think Hillary will be able to pick up NM, while Obama […]

The Charleston Gazette has an OP/ED by Hillary Clinton today describing why she is running for president and what her goals are as our next president. It’s well worth a read… Here’s a few quips:
I was raised to believe in the promise of America. My grandfather was a factory worker, and my father served in […]

For all the complaints from some progressives about having Bill Clinton back in the White House as the First Spouse, I find this little tidbit interesting:
Close-in supporters of Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential campaign are convinced he never will offer the vice presidential nomination to Sen. Hillary Clinton for one overriding reason: Michelle Obama.

Two recent polls released earlier in the week, showed that Barack Obama has a bit of problem looming in the upcoming West Virginia primary:
A new tracking poll out late Tuesday shows Hillary Clinton with a sizable advantage among registered Democrat and independent voters in West Virginia over opponent Barack Obama. The poll was completed prior […]

Obviously Obama’s “tired” — who wouldn’t be after months of campaigning. Marc Ambinder thinks if John McCain had said it, the “media would be all up in his grill, accusing him […]

One of the reasons I have been so ardent in my support for Hillary Clinton, admittedly is because I, like so many women in America have waited so long to put a viable and experienced woman in the White House. The fact is that women are the core of the Democratic party. As a single […]

As Howard Wolfson noted this morning support for Hillary Clinton’s candidacy endures with “several members of Congress” releasing a letter today to “other Democrats touting their support for Hillary, saying she is the strongest candidate to have at the top of the ticket in the fall”:
“[W]e are convinced that Hillary Clinton has the vision, skills and […]

The fight for the nomination is coming to end in the next few weeks and for all intents and purposes, though “not completely over,” it does appear that “the odds now overwhelmingly favor Barack Obama.” This of course is not good news to Clinton supporters who hold on to the hope that she will pull off […]

…That John Kerry sniped mercilessly at Howard Dean during the 2004 primary, but no one ever accused him of being a traitor to the Democratic Party?
…That when feminists complain of massive sexism and misogyny during the campaign, they are called “whiners,” but when Obama supporters complain of racism, they are called “victims of injustice”?
