The Just Say No Deal/PUMA movement is evidence of a deep rift in the Democratic Party, one I believe the polls are not reflecting. Contrary to what the neo-liberals may say, the movement is not comprised of bitter old women — although many are bitter, many are women, and some are perhaps old. […]

Geraldine Ferraro sure is in touch with how the insulted women of America feel and how little chance Barack Obama has of realizing his “confidence” in “bringing the party together”. She also has a realistic grasp of how sick and tired we are of seeing the Race Card played as a diversionary tactic.
Apparently the Obama Campaign, […]

A friend returns from the Colorado Democratic State Convention and announces that she will not support Obama if he’s the nominee. If Obama is losing women like this, I think, he is doomed in November.
This is how she describes the Convention:
I listen to the leaders of our party talk about us all “coming together” […]

I’ve never been an Obama supporter. I’ve known him since the very beginning of his political career, which […]

Writes Taylor Marsh: “The above video is pretty silly, but it started circulating late last night so I thought I’d share it. It blames everything on my friend Larry Johnson over at No Quarter, which is laughable. He wasn’t anywhere near Rhodes when she let loose her screed against Clinton or Ferraro. Today’s reports […]

“[I]t’s been a sad and sobering week for ‘liberal’ and ‘progressive’ values,” writes The Daily Howler, reflecting on the repugnant words of Randi Rhodes that earned her a well-deserved indefinite suspension from Air America Radio.
A week? How about months of the “progressive” blogosphere’s incessant attacks on both Hillary Clinton and her supporters? […]

Besides Randi Rhodes’ sexist hate speech at a San Francisco Obama event advertised on Obama’s campaign site — and the hate speech of Obama’s spiritual advisers — there are these two you’ll read all about below the fold:
* Ed Schultz, the radio show host until recently a Republican but is now a Democratic party “expert” […]

UPDATE: I demand that Barack Obama remove all funds, if any, received from the Randi Rhodes event from his campaign treasury, and give those funds to charity. If — and we are still investigating this — the money collected at the door, and any other monies possibly collected that evening — went into Barack Obama’s […]

UPDATE: Let’s contact Air America Radio and tell its top brass that we want Taylor Marsh to replace Randi Rhodes. Taylor tells it like it is, but she has class and dignity. She also has a wicked sense of humor and the lively style needed for AM radio. Taylor would be perfect! […]
