I was watching MSNBC this morning and a Democratic Analyst was saying the biggest mistake Hillary Clinton made was moving to NEW YORK to become a Senator instead of returning to her original home state of Illinois.  Clinton would have handed Obama his ass in the Primary there and Obama would never have been a Senator.

No Senator Obama, No Democratic Nominee for President Obama, No President Obama in 2008.

I dare say Clinton would have locked this game up MONTHS ago.

But a better option came along for the American People.

 

Wow isn't it amazing how choices like that come back to bite you in the ass?

In a surprising 4-3 vote... the California Supreme Court has ruled that domestic partnerships do not meet the constitutional requirement for a substitute for marriage rights for California's gay and lesbian couples.

As a progressive gay man, I am overwhelmed by this development.  I am worried that it will become a November issue and a scare tactic for the GOP... but it's a huge step to equality for all.

Hillary and her supporters must be so proud.  Ignorance and racism is your base!  Excellent!

Good Morning America, on the scene in West Virginia, introduced their viewers to Janis. She's not a particularly enthusiastic Hillary Clinton supporter, but for her, Hillary has got one thing on Barack Obama: she's not a Muslim. Of course, neither is Obama.

KATE SNOW: Janis said she can't support Obama.

JANIS: He's Muslim and that has a lot to do with it. I just, you know, I just would rather have Hillary.

SNOW: Just for the record he constantly says he's a Christian -

JANIS: I know he does.

SNOW: You don't believe him?

JANIS: No.

Now, it's hardly newsworthy to learn that stupid people exist and they do, in fact, vote. I mean, we have this whole thing called "the Bush Administration" that more or less proves that. But it's a little astounding to hear Kate Snow, who, as a reporter, is ostensibly charged with informing the public, offer up the mealy mouthed, "Just for the record, he constantly says he's a Christian..." As Snow well knows, there's a reason that Obama constantly says he's a Christian: it is because he is a Christian. The correct response would have been, "I'm sorry, but you are mistaken." Or, failing that, at least show us a voter capable of making a passionate and authoritative case for Clinton.
