Speaking Of Voting - Shocking Study From The US Senate »

(Bumped up from last week.)
I saw the following story this morning on the news, and was pretty surprised by it: One-Fourth of Overseas Votes Go Uncounted, Study Finds. Some of you may recall that John McCain asked for an extension to count votes in VA for absentee ballots requested by military personnel that [...]

Sgt Patsy (of the Patsy & Sugar radio show) Needs Our Help »

Sgt. Patsy — who proudly serves our nation at Ft. Bragg, who served as a “soldier for Hillary,” and now proudly supports McCain/Palin — writes to our blog:
Saturday, Sunday & Monday, 8 people (the starving college student kind) will be coming to NC where I am located to stay with me to help out [...]

“Obama & Friends: Judge Not?” »

The following was in my local paper this morning, and I wanted to share:
Obama & Friends: Judge Not?, By Charles Krauthammer
Friday, October 10, 2008; A19
Convicted felon Tony Rezko. Unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers. And the race-baiting Rev. Jeremiah Wright. It is hard to think of any presidential candidate before Barack Obama sporting associations with three more [...]

Charlotte, North Carolina: Barack Obama’s Political Dumping Ground »

Charlotte, North Carolina, will be the site where the Obama campaign will cynically drop the race card again and again with the “hope” that racial polarization will garner a victory in the Tarheel state; it will be the dumping ground for all the race baiting and political toxic waste the Obama campaign will deploy in [...]

Erosion »

216 for McCain-Palin, 217 for Obama-Biden, 105 Toss Ups: Obama’s lead in the electoral college has officially eroded. Here is Survey USA’s report about the state of electoral affairs in Washington state:

Elitist Dean and “The Low Class” »

Published by Jyoti Friedland, Charlotte Front and Center, a Puma Lady, who confronted Howard Dean
This is an excerpt from the newspaper, Charlotte Observer, when Howard visited Charlotte , NC on 25th of July as part of his tour program:  Shouts of protest continued intermittently.  When Dean mentioned what he called “the biggest job for President Obama,” they hollered, “He’s  [...]

PUMAs Are “Surging” »

Newsbusters.org has written a great article on PUMA power today, “MSM Mostly Ignores Surge of Anti-Obama PUMA Democrat Activity.” A choice quote:
Imagine if a bunch of disgruntled Mitt Romney supporters were currently stalking John McCain or Republican events loudly demanding that their candidate be nominated. Think the national press would be featuring it bigtime as [...]

Letter from Charlotte Front and Center »

Dear Hillary supporters – We’re calling on you to join us in a nationwide demonstration of outrage -

Outrage at the blatant bias against Hillary in the mainstream media
Outrage that the Obama campaign has played the race card repeatedly and been given a “free pass” by the media
Outrage at the DNC and the NCDP for their unethical [...]

“Slack Like Me” »

In yesterday’s NY Times, there was an article about Obama entitled, “A Delegator, Obama Picks When to Take Reins.”

Just the opening photo alone is telling - he is stretched out on a sofa, talking to someone who is not in the frame. It reminds me of another photo I saw of him recently, sitting [...]

Father Pfleger Should Save His Breath »

Jake Tapper of ABC News reports:
Father Pfleger writes to say, “I regret the words I chose on Sunday. These words are inconsistent with Senator Obama’s life and message, and I am deeply sorry if they offended Senator Clinton or anyone else who saw them.”
Is this why the Obama campaign scrubbed Pfleger, one of Obama’s “spiritual [...]

Michelle Obama’s Hostility [Update: New Michelle Obama Video] »

Once again Obama’s supporters and surrogates are colluding with neoconservative men, namely Bob Novak, the man who exposed Valerie Plame’s identity. I quote:
Close-in supporters of Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential campaign are convinced he never will offer the vice presidential nomination to Sen. Hillary Clinton for one overriding reason: Michelle Obama.
The Democratic front-runner’s wife did [...]

Obama “Jam Packed” Rally »

Those of us who recognize Moose Poop when we see it, already know that Barack Obama is a media creation and a con. Everything he says and everything he does is part of the special effects and The Show - including his “packed” rallies.
“Reynolds Coliseum on N.C. State’s campus seats 12,400 people. It did not [...]

Indiana & N.C. Results Thread »

HILLARY has won Indiana, declares CBS News.
42% of precincts reporting– Clinton 56%, Obama 44%
_____________________________
MAY I RECOMMEND that you watch FOX NEWS? I don’t think a single one of us should give MSNBC ANY rating numbers. Besides, Fox News does a great job, and Karl Rove’s analyses are quite fascinating since he knows the country [...]

Obama Field Director Urges People to Lie to Their Bosses [Action Update] »

[Oh, I don't know what we should do ... maybe we should all write to Jason, and tell him we're showing his e-mail to our bosses? UPDATE: Via our brilliant cartoonist PatRacimora, "There is a report abuse link on the Obama NC page, but you have to provide a bunch of info...I thought it would [...]

Competing Endorsements and Parallel Narratives »

As the campaign for the nomination heads into the final days before North Carolina and Indiana, both campaigns are attempting to control the narrative prior to the voting. Obama is failing miserably. The Clinton campaign so fully controls the narrative now that it’s virtually a presidency-in-waiting, with bully pulpit and podium to boot (more [...]

Obama Is Too CHICKEN to Debate »

Not only is this hilarious, it’s chock full of solid information that should cause any primary voter to pause before voting for Mr. Obama. LOOK: We know that the gutless wonder will refuse to debate Hillary, but that doesn’t mean we can’t remind people he’s too cowardly to do so:

We’ve written FIVE stories on Obama’s [...]

Must-See TV Tonight [Update] »

UPDATE, Hillary on ABC’s Nightline last night (special thanks to V4Hill for the video upload):

On C-Span [VIDEO COMING]: 5 p.m. ET — DEM. CANDIDATES SPEAK AT NC DINNER — Tonight, watch LIVE coverage as Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) and Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) attend the North Carolina Democratic Party’s 2008 Jefferson-Jackson Dinner. Other scheduled speakers [...]

Identity Politics and Anti-White Racism »

“Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.” Voltaire
Recent polls show that approximately 30% of Hillary voters could defect to McCain if Obama is the nominee. That such a large swath of Democratic voters might defect should be disconcerting to superdelegates, to say the least. I’ve been reflecting for several weeks [...]

What’s really going on in No. Carolina »

___________________
THE HARD FACTS: REV. WRIGHT is a huge problem for Barack Obama in the state of North Carolina, which votes Tuesday. People know that repudiations don’t count for much when Obama sat in his pews for 20 years, and that Rev. Wright married him, baptized his children, and “blessed” his $1.6M mansion. People know the [...]

Bill O’Reilly Open Thread [Updated] »

JUST ANNOUNCED on Hannity, Fox News: Hillary Clinton now leads Barack Obama 46-44 in North Carolina. (And my friend who is working his tail off in No. Carolina tells me that volunteers are streaming into the offices, and the “feel” of the campaign is transformed, as well as the great, positive reactions they’re [...]
