“Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.” — Anaïs Nin
I’ve certainly experienced this reality. My relationship with The Democratic Daily is a good example. It has enriched my life.

I never thought that I would see the day that the Democratic Party would even think of reducing the power of the vote of Democrats in two states. I thought one man, one vote was a basic Democratic principle.
If you are not watching CNN or MSNBC’s live coverage it’s fact filled. You can watch the […]

On 6-17-2005, I was already dismayed enough by the increasingly angry disagreements within the Progressive Blogsphere that I wrote an article about effective persuasion, communication and it’s impact on campaigns at my old blog The Political Dogfight. I also recorded a more detailed view in a 10 minute audio that was published at my audio […]

Nothing anyone says to me will convince me that the fight to seat the delegates from Florida and Michigan (my home state) is nothing less than a fight for the voting rights of the 2.3 million people who turned out for their state primaries in January. The voters did not set the dates - and […]

I have to say when I saw this headline from Political, I fully expected it to be a piece about the McCain campaign. You know, something where McCain tells the media that the current and former lobbyists working with his campaign are all “people too.” But it’s not about John McCain… No… It’s about the other candidate […]

Resolving the issue of the votes in Michigan and Florida is fast becoming an essential ingredient to winning in November. Enforcing the “rules” as they currently stand could help assure another “inconvenient” loss for the Democrats.
Since the May 31st meeting of the Rules and Bylaws Committee is looming, I urge everyone to write and/or e-mail […]

One day after it was announced that Senator Ted Kennedy has a malignant brain tumor, Kennedy walked out of Mass General hospital accompanied by his wife and children, “to a crowd of well wishers on Wednesday, appearing strong and cheerful.”
The NY Times reports, “if there were any signs that the diagnosis had slowed Mr. Kennedy or dampened his spirits, […]
