A great American and loyal reader (thanks FL) shared a report recently produced by not-for-profits Essential Information and The Consumer Education Foundation. This report, Sold Out: How Wall Street and Washington Betrayed America, has gotten little to no attention in the general media. What a shame.

In her NY Times column yesterday, “Sweet on Caroline,” Maureen Dowd finds yet another way to display her Hillary Derangement Syndrome by defending Caroline Kennedy in her bid for appointment to the Senate. In the process, MoDowd not so subtly plunges yet another dagger into Senator Clinton’s heart. Contrary to her mission in [...]

Richard Cohen’s sister is canceling her inauguration party because of President-elect Obama’s choice of Rick Warren to bless Mr. Obama’s taking the office of the Presidency of the United State.
According to her brother’s column in the Washington Post, what made her do this is the way in which Mr. Obama’s [...]

I haven’t been doing much writing the last few days, instead I have been thinking, reading and observing. I just finished reading the threads from Welcome Back, Find Some Reason, and Larry’s comments:
“I take back nothing I have written about Barack and Michelle Obama. That said, I don’t want to see them destroyed or to [...]

What If It Had Been the Clintons?
What if Bill or Hillary Clinton’s grandmother had died the day before the election? Let’s speculate.
Republicans would have flown back from campaigning to hold emergency hearings in both the House and Senate to “investigate”. The right wing and religious wackos would have crash produced an “educational” video [...]

Borrowed from the title of Maya Angelou’s great book. Only in this case, the bird singing is Anita Moncrief, a former ACORN employee. Oh, yes - she’s singing like a canary in this intriguing article from the Wall Street Journal the other day,

As a preface to Nancy’s article it might be helpful to offer a refresher for new NoQuarter readers on the deep and long-term relationship between Barak Obama and ACORN, which stands for Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.
ACORN Housing provides mortgage loan counseling, first-time homebuyer classes, and helps clients obtain affordable mortgages through [...]

SusanUnPC’s Note: Even my hardcore Republican relatives fervently wish that Hillary were running against McCain because they know that she could address this crisis while they have no faith — none — that Obama will know what to do or make the right choices. Additionally, Ricki Liebermann’s daily newsletter quotes our friend Alegre at [...]

The New York Post learned today that Reverend Wright is actually Reverend Wrong. Apparently our “pious” Reverend Wright — who was the pastor and confidante of Barack Obama for 20+ years, baptized both of his daughters, married him and Michelle, and “blessed” their mansion — has been carrying on with a younger woman in Texas.

This evening I had the great pleasure to spend my time with Dr. Saharra Bledsoe. She organized a host of speakers to celebrate Hillary Clinton. One of those speakers was “Shtuey”, Dr. Bledsoe introduced him gusto. Shtuey is a blogger well known to me, I have followed his posts for sometime now. He has taken [...]

Last night I received a report from a Texas Delegate who said the “roll call” vote was to be secret and done in their hotel rooms. Today I had the opportunity to speak with Hillary delegate, Cindy Schwartz from Washington State. Here is a brief conversation we held in PUMA headquarters this afternoon.
She discussed the [...]

Breaking News from Mark Halperin and The Page. Governor Ed Rendell tells the PolitikerPA:
“I’m going to cast my ballot for her, and then the moment I cast my vote, I’m going to continue to enthusiastically support Sen. Obama. It’s going to be a good release for all of us.”
He said this in his interview with [...]

I just read an article based on some emails, memos, and notes leaked to The Atlantic by one (or more) of Hillary Clinton’s former presidential campaign staffers.
When I first read the pre-publishing-date hype about the impending article, I thought: Why does this matter? Hadn’t they heard that Hillary publicly threw her support behind Barack Obama [...]

Brenda Krause is tired of fearmongering among the Democrats. She said this about unity in the party:
“I’m not going to be coerced into something I don’t believe in,” said Krause, who lives in Colorado Springs and owns a real estate office. “That makes me less unified. If they let me have my voice, I’ll feel [...]

I was in our nation’s capitol from July 3 - 10. Among the highlights of my week-long visit was coffee at the Mayflower Hotel with NQ’s Larry Johnson. It was even more fun conversing with him than reading his blog posts.
Another highlight was watching the FISA votes from the Senate visitors’ gallery at [...]

Remember what this election was supposed to be? This was the shoo-in year for the Democrats. This was the year that they couldn’t make a mistake. Why, with a disastrous war that most Americans think is wrong, that is robbing our economy and killing [...]

Last week marked the 145th anniversary of Pickett’s Charge during the battle at Gettysburg, a watershed moment in the Civil War. It also may be remembered in the future as the week the Barack Obama campaign launched its version of Pickett’s Charge. Like General Pickett, he failed to take the center and ruined [...]

John Heilemann interviews Hillary Clinton for an article in the NY Magazine. It is quite interesting, offering some new perspective and some post mortem thoughts not found elsewhere (yet). I think what Heilemann says here will gradually appear elsewhere. He says that by losing, Hillary has at least gained something: stature [...]
