Mike Huckabee is a Class A Ass:
During a speech before the National Rifle Association convention Friday afternoon in Louisville, Kentucky, former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee — who has endorsed presumptive GOP nominee John McCain — joked that an unexpected offstage noise was Democrat Barack Obama looking to avoid a gunman.
“That was Barack Obama, he […]

The media is telling her to get out of the race . . . yet she is running a great campaign and one of the closest races in history. The party bosses are telling her to get out of the race . . . that she, single handedly, is destroying the unity of the Democratic Party, […]

As I expected she would… Today in Rapid City, SD, Hillary Clinton went to bat for Barack Obama in the wake of Bush’s comparison of him to Neville Chamberlain, Ken Vogel reports (via Politico).
She told reporters:
President Bush’s comparison of any Democrat to Nazi appeasers is both offensive and outrageous on the face of it, especially […]

Why won’t Barack Obama and the DNC let the votes count in Michigan and Florida? Because if they let the votes count, then Hillary Clinton leads in the popular vote. Per ABC News:
Clinton: 16,691,283
Obama: 16,647,926
No small wonder why so many women in a America are mad as hell and are threatening to boycott Obama. Ouch…

Speaking at Israel’s 60th anniversary celebration in Jerusalem today, Bush launched attack on Democrats ”suggesting they favor “appeasement” of terrorists in the same way some Western leaders appeased Hitler in the run-up to World War II.”
He did not specifically “name Obama or any other Democrat, but White House aides privately acknowledged the remarks were aimed at the presidential […]

It is “generally frowned upon: Calling reporters “sweetie.”” But, Barack Obama says he has a bad habit of “using the word ’sweetie.’” And he says “I do it sometimes with all kinds of people.” Yeh… Right… No doubt those “all kinds of people” are all women, because men generally don’t call me “sweetie.”

The night before last I wrote a post here titled: Get A Grip!!! The post had a two fold message, one: to Clinton supporters threatening to vote for McCain over Obama and two: to Obama supporters who’s comments were getting out of hand here.
The post created some outcry from Clinton supporters here, sadly, who don’t […]

You’ll have to excuse me if I’m unmoved by the keyboard jockeys claiming racism for those who are not supporting Obama. I don’t have to justify my race relations credibility to anyone. You just have to ask those who know me, about the group I helped start at the medical school I’m affiliated with to […]

Despite the calls from the pundits, surrogates and “creative class” bloggers for Obama, two new polls show strong support for the Democratic race for the nomination to continue.
The first poll from ABC News/Washington Post shows that “64 percent of Democrats in the latest poll say Clinton should remain in the race,” and “even among Obama’s supporters, 42 […]

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.
The Democratic front-runner’s wife […]
