A No Quarter story entitled These are Barack Obama’s Supporters, a writer from a staunch Obama site where the rest of us are not welcome discusses Hillary Clinton supporters and their complete unwillingness to vote for Barack Obama. For some odd reason, our willingness to vote for anybody but Barack Obama seems to come as […]

BLOG ANNOUNCEMENT: WE WILL HAVE A BIG PARTY BASH TONIGHT TO CELEBRATE HILLARY’S VICTORY! BE HERE WITH US! Some of you will, unfortunately, have to watch MSNBO and CNN to report to us what drivel they are spouting … I am psychologically unfit to do so because they make me raving […]

We already know that Barack Obama and campaign have robbed the Democratic primary of an honest discussion about the policies. Besides the coward’s fear of facing Hillary Clinton in any more debates — and blowing off the entire state of West Virginia by refusing to hold a SINGLE CAMPAIGN EVENT in that state — […]

The full-court press to force Hillary from the presidential race ain’t working. She will win the West Virginia, Kentucky, and Puerto Rico primaries.
But the screwed-up, patchwork system the Democrats are using to choose delegates has given small states, which are unlikely to be in the Democratic column come November, inordinate influence. […]

Last week, economist Paul Krugman made it very clear that he finds John McCain’s gas tax holiday proposal potentially harmful. Krugman also made very clear that he doesn’t like Hillary Clinton’s counter-proposal but considers it harmless.
That said, Krugman reportedly heard about (but has not seen) a negative Obama ad that falsely uses Krugman’s criticism of […]

Sen. Barack Obama is chastising Hillary Clinton and John McCain for supporting a gas-tax holiday. McCain’s proposal is a straight lifting of the tax. Hillary’s proposal would include a windfall-profits tax on oil companies, meaning that oil companies would in theory pay for the gas-tax holiday. Of course, oil companies could just raise prices to […]

Today, I bought gas in North Florida: $3.79 a gallon for regular, up about 83 cents since early February. Friday, Exxon Mobil reported quarterly profits of $10.9 billion. Last quarter, Exxon listed the highest quarterly profits in U.S. corporate history ($11.66 billion), as well as record-high annual profits of $40.66 billion in 2007.
Exxon’s share […]

So, Democrats, the media tells us we are in the midst of a “family fight.”
To introduce myself and my family, I am a latte-drinking, white, college-educated progressive Democrat who, despite my demographic, supports Hillary Clinton. Maybe it is because I am also a woman over 45. My mother and my late father are “blue collar” […]

From CNN’s Lou Dobbs This Week, aired April 26, 2008, with guests Diana West, Hank Sheinkopf, and Errol Louis:
“DOBBS: I have to say that what I don’t understand. … With the antipathy towards Senator Obama that has built up over the last few weeks, for the life of me, I don’t understand why the … […]
