Earlier today I posted Air America’s Thom Hartman’s message that Obama should “ask” Clinton to be his VP, in response to the news that Obama has pegged “Jim Johnson to begin vetting potential vice presidential picks.”
The post was met with some disgruntled responses from both Clinton and Obama supporters. And elesewhere in the blogosphere there’s [...]

The reactions are pouring in on the news of Senator Kennedy’s diagnosis that he has a malignant brain tumor. CNN reports that “Senate Democrats and Republicans were having their weekly closed policy lunches in the Capitol when the news broke.”
When Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nevada, told his Democratic colleagues about Kennedy, there was “stunned silence,” [...]

I’m on a blogger call with Hillary Clinton right now. I’ll do my best to live blog as much as possible.
Peter Daou just thanked all the bloggers supporting Hillary and introduced her. She’s speaking now, thanking us all for working so hard in the blogosphere to make her case on the issues that matter. Hillary [...]

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 [...]

Ah, Super Tuesday. The talking heads will be all atwitter watching the polls in 22 states and waiting to see which Democrat/Republican comes out on top at the end of today’s primary bonanza.
There will be a news blackout in this house (as always) until after 10pm. I can’t stand play-by-plays, so watching the talking heads [...]

Let me just start by saying, “Ouch!”. The game, last night, was brutal. The New York Giants laid a huge “smackdown” on the New England Patriots. They were thisclose to making history and then “Whoops!”…too bad, so sad…
I was rooting for the Patriots (even though I’m a Denver Broncos fan), but thank [...]

I am so excited, I can hardly contain myself. Today, is Super Bowl Sunday; the day when all the most funny commercials premiere on television! I can’t wait to watch them.
Oh…oh…oh…and the wardrobe malfunctions! There’s another reason to watch the Superbowl?
That’s right: The half-time show!
There’s supposed to be a game or something going on, but [...]

I know that I said, yesterday, that I am sick to death of politics. No…no, that wasn’t a lie.
You see, the thing is, the main reason I put together this round-up, these days, is not so much for my own pleasure (narcissist, though I may be), but to give SSG Dizzy (currently serving his third [...]

It’s still January and yet, I am sick to death of politics.
Sadly, the primary wars are just like major car wrecks: you can’t help but stop and take a quick peek, no matter how gruesome the carnage may be.
The same can be said for my penchant for watching bad musical movies. And it’s not [...]

My internet connection was down on Sunday evening/Monday morning, so I was unable to get out my round-up in a timely manner.
But, I’m back and ready to go despite the busy, yet, hugely successful weekend that just ended (Dizzy plus one microphone plus 400 people = &%$# awesome!). Too bad it wasn’t a political rally [...]
