Defending Hillary
Alright, I'm going to go out on a limb here and disagree with the general consensus that Hillary's remarks today were racist. I don't believe that Hillary is a racist, I think she chose her words poorly. First of...more »

Oil, Blood and the Dollar
Last week, the United States deployed a second aircraft carrier to the Persian Gulf, while insisting that this move was not a signal of escalating tensions between the United States and Iran but instead was a “reminder” to Iran....more »

Math, Super Delegates, and Guam
I thought I'd cheer Obama supporters up by letting them know that since March 4, Obama has picked up the support from 41 superdelegates. Whereas, Hillary has picked up 10. Since Pennsylvania, Obama has had support from 10, and...more »

John.He.Is- Like Hope but Different
I saw this video a couple of months ago but the new DNC ad against John McCain reminded me of it. It's pretty amusing, I think the DNC should run this against McCain but their ad isn't too bad....more »

Strange Bedfellows: The Clinton Machine and the Republican Party
First Rush Limbaugh urges Republicans in Texas and Ohio to vote for Hillary on the March 4th open primaries "to bloody up" Senator Obama. Then the McCain campaign chooses to focus its criticisms exclusively on Senator Obama. In fact,...more »

That's really strange. I'm not a big fan of soda either.

That would be seven or eight years as state senator. And I do believe that's longer than Hillary has been in elected office.

There's no point in debating Hillary anymore. By debating her, he'd be implying that Hillary still has a chance to win, she doesn't. End of story.

I was one of those disengaged people that didn't used to bother voting because I didn't really see the point. I don't really know when I started to pay attention to what was taking place but I started to become really disturbed by some of Bush's policies. Abroad as well as at home. It also bothered me that things could never get done in DC because the Democrats and Republicans were always at a deadlock and it didn't really make a difference when the Democrats had the majority. Obama got my attention when he declared that he would be willing to talk to Iran. Finally, someone willing to talk with America's enemies. Then, I was drawn in further when he used inclusive language for Republicans. And he showed that he was more than willing to work with Republicans and that he has worked with Republicans to get stuff passed. It was just really refreshing to see someone who is willing to work with others that don't necessarily have the same point of view but is open. So, I've been volunteering and donating my time and money ever since to try to get him elected.

I think Obama should definitely agree to a set amount of these townhalls. McCain has such terrible ideas and gets away with saying a lot of dumb things that Obama will look good in comparison. Obviously, he can't travel with McCain everywhere, that's just silly, he still needs to energize his base and continue to learn about the problems that are facing everyday Americans.

I just learned this story yesterday. It's definitely possible that someone else might have had the same experience.
