According to Obama supporters and his allies in the media, Hillary is finished and the nomination is securely in Obama’s hands. David Broder laments that “If Clinton weren’t still challenging, [Obama] could easily devote a week to a swing through Hispanic enclaves from California to New York.” But Hillary is challenging and I take Hillary [...]

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 [...]

The full-court press to force Hillary from the presidential race ain’t working. She will win the West Virginia, Kentucky, and Puerto Rico primaries.

Do you think these people, shown in this video — these salt-of-the-earth people — deserve a chance to help choose the nominee on May 20? Do you? How about you, Howard Dean? How ’bout you, Nancy Pelosi? And you, Patrick Leahy? (And who gives a damn what you think about anything anyway, Mr. Leahy.)
