Hell Hath No Fury Like a Hillary Supporter Scorned (and most of all Hillary herself, left bereft in a corner swept up along with rally detritus) »

Okay, so it was just a personal fantasy of mine. But I really thought (yes, I really did) — that day when Hillary and Barack were whispering to each other on that plane — that they’d come to an arrangement. That they had struck THIS deal: Hillary would dutifully campaign for Barack, frequently and with [...]

Oh, Wes, What Have They Done To You? »

Well, I just busted my Popeil’s Disgust-O-Meter because too much bile came out of my throat all at once and sent the needle through the roof. I have long been a fan of General Wesley Clark and appreciated his early and very strong endorsement of Hillary Clinton, our rightful nominee. He worked very hard for [...]

Feeling A Little Ill »

I have to admit, I am feeling a bit ill this morning. I picked up my newspaper, and there was a lovely photo of Hillary Clinton, with the headline, “Clinton ‘proud” to back Obama.” Ugh. I know, I know, she is a sitting US Senator, and a Democratic one to boot, so yes, she HAS [...]

John Kerry Proves That the DNC Can’t Pick a Winner »

If more evidence is needed that the DNC is expert at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, look no further than the junior Senator from Massachusetts, John Kerry; otherwise known as ‘Lurch.’ Instances of the DNC’s poor judgment keep piling up so it’s hard to keep it all straight, but four years ago, this [...]

Tonight on No Quarter Radio »

Tonight I have the honor of interviewing Bob Shrum. His book, No Excuses, is just out in paperback and it’s candy for the political junkie. If you love politics, you’ll love this book. I’ll be asking him about his political war stories. I also want to get his thoughts on this recent primary campaign and [...]

Will the Democratic Party Be Democratic? When Hillary Wins the Popular Vote Will Obama Act Like It’s Florida? »

Hillary Clinton Leads Popular Vote Democrats risk turning their whole party into Florida 2000–or Florida 2008. When does the winner not win? In Florida 2000, the votes were not counted because the conservative majority on the Supreme Court ruled they shouldn’t be counted. Al Gore won the popular majority of votes in the country and [...]

Here’s the New Democratic Logo for “Losers for Obama” »

Loser ‘Droid Jimmy Carter to the states of Michigan and Florida: DROP DEAD! The former president tells Jay Leno Wednesday night that the two states’ delegations should not be seated at August’s convention because they “disqualified themselves.” “It would be a catastrophe for the party.” (Via Mark Halperin’s blog) So here’s the new logo for [...]

Patrick and Obama: Promises Really Are “Just Words” »

In spite of the fact that Ted Kennedy dragged his substantial butt all over Massachusetts for him, in spite of the fact that John Swiftboat Kerry insisted he was The One, and in spite of Ted’s efforts to trot out as many Kennedys as possible, the State of Massachusetts told Barack Obama to take a [...]

Massachusetts: The Canary in the Coal Mine »

The Clinton Team has a message for America after Pennsylvania, and it’s not spin. It’s a serious question every American and every Democrat should be asking: Why didn’t Obama win Pennsylvania? But after the Obama campaign’s “go-for-broke” Pennsylvania strategy, after their avalanche of negative ads, negative mailers and negative attacks against Sen. Clinton, after their [...]

Barack Obama On the Pictorial Trail »

So what if a cockroach could have beaten this guy, I’m still the winner, right??! Taking advice on how to win. God, she reminds me of my white grandmother who was smarter and more successful than I will ever be.
