Week of April 6, 2008 - April 12, 2008

Donna Shore's Bitter


Bitter? 
Mrs. clinton thinks the voters are "optimistic"!  John McCain thinks Americans would be happy to stay in Iraq for 100 years.
The pundits think we all live in Bushville and dine at Morton's

81% of Americans think Clinton/Bush governance has the country on the wrong track.

"Optimistic" Mrs. Clinton?

Tell that to Donna Shore and tell that audience on Tuesday night.


Consumer Confidence Sinks to 26 Year Low

    "I think we're almost in a depression," said Rohnert Park resident Donna Shore, 72. "Like the man in the movie said, 'I'm mad as hell and I'm not taking it anymore.' "

    Shore, who rents an apartment in a senior facility, lives on Social Security of $846 per month plus the $10 per hour she earns working 22 hours a week at a storage facility. There's no slack in her budget. As prices of food and fuel have risen, she's had to cut back.

    "I'm worried about the cost of everything. Peanut oil used to be $2 or $3 for a small bottle. Now it's escalated to $5."

The Good News from Hillary's Pastor


As she sinks slowly beneath the waves to her watery grave, one final, timely word from the Tuzla Terror's Pastor:

A STATEMENT CONCERNING THE REV. JEREMIAH WRIGHT
The Reverend Jeremiah Wright is an outstanding church leader whom I have heard speak a number of times. He has served for decades as a profound voice for justice and inclusion in our society. He has been a vocal critic of the racism, sexism and homophobia which still tarnish the American dream. To evaluate his dynamic ministry on the basis of two or three sound bites does a grave injustice to Dr. Wright, the members of his congregation, and the African-American church which has been the spiritual refuge of a people that has suffered from discrimination, disadvantage, and violence. Dr. Wright, a member of an integrated denomination, has been an agent of racial reconciliation while proclaiming perceptions and truths uncomfortable for some white people to hear. Those of us who are white Americans would do well to listen carefully to Dr. Wright rather than to use a few of his quotes to polarize. This is a critical time in America's history as we seek to repent of our racism. No matter which candidates prevail, let us use this time to listen again to one another and not to distort one another's truth.

A Gray Cloud for Ever Sliver Lining


KOS in Newsweek, expanding on a point that others have made, argues that the extended, some say intermidable democratic primary campaign is a boon to the party. KOS and others maintain, rightly, that with the Dem candidates campaigning in all 50 states, visibility and party organization are boosted in red states that normally would have seen barely hide or hair of the Democrats this entire cycle.

It is a good point but for every silver lining there is a dark cloud for, according to this article at Politico, the independent democratic campaign against John McCain has all but collapsed due to lack of funds.

That giant sucking sound?  The Clinton and Obama campaigns which, on balance, in my view at least, have outlived their usefulness to the party.

There's an opportunity cost to Mrs. Clinton's stubborness which cannot be denied nor lightly dismissed.
