  • Open Season On The Clinton Scandals?

    The day following the crucial Indiana and NC primaries that seemed to end Hillary's presidential aspirations, a strange thing happened. The media started releasing bits and pieces of Hillary's seldom reported, nefarious doings. Doings that have been in the public arena for years but never followed up by the media. The Washington Times headline ...

  • Hard Working White Folks/Working Class Whites

    It's so clear to me that Hillary was trying to avoid saying ...''working class whites...'' and in doing so spit out the ''hard working'' characterization. She tripped over her own attack strategy. If she had said what she originally intended, she would have sounded elitist. Like that other guy she's been attacking for weeks. Her words have been ...

  • Obama Doomsday Scenario Contest

    My entry was serious, but all Beam was interested in was over-the-top slapstick comedy. So, for the record, here is what I wrote. It is rumored that there is an ''October Surprise'' awaiting Obama. My guess that the Clinton campaign will leak it as a ''June surprise''. It has to involve Obama's father or stepfather. My guess: I don't ...

  • She can't quit now

    Why would she concede, even though it's getting pretty clear that she won't win the nomination? She quits and she's out over 6M. She needs to stay in the race in order to pay herself back, despite the damage it does to her party and... let's face it.. the Democrat Party nominee.

  • Why Losing Is So Becoming on Some Politicians.

    After closely watching and participating in politics for forty years, it never ceases to amaze me how deeply angered by a politican I can feel on one day, and how positively smitten the next. It happens when they lose or retire. I was sure that Hillary Clinton had lost the nomination only when her Indiana victory speech sounded downright ...

  • Super Delegate Leaderhship Time

    Dear Super Delegates, The time has come for the Super Delegates and the elders of the Democratic Party to show some leadership and end this divisive Primary campaign. Hillary Clinton will not drop out and nobody in her inner circle will encourage her to do so. At this late stage in the game, she really has no incentive to abandon her campaign, ...

  • Why Hillary will win, if the Superdelegates do their jobs

    The reason primary season is designed to last so long, if necessary, is because this isn't election day in November. This is a process that shows the change in perception as we expose our candidates, learn more about them over time, look at sensitivities amongst different demographics (and no, not all white people are racist) and different ...

  • Tim Noah Gets it Right on points-loses me in the conclusion

    I have read Tim Noah's thoughtful and empirically balanced essay and I find it wanting nothing but a proper inference from the facts in evidence. Hillary Clinton has more than a chance; she has time on her side in her quest to persuade the delegates, super and otherwise that she is the long distance marathon woman who can best take it to McCain ...

  • Why Hillary must and will win.

    Although it seems completely unlikely by the delegate ''count'' numbers that Hillary could win the nomination, please consider the fact that politics has little to do with numbers that haven't been counted and more to do with interests that can change the numbers that haven't been counted yet. And there are enough unpledged superdelegates to swing ...

  • Why Hillary Shjould Stay IN the race.

    I will pose the converse of the thoughtful points made in the Fray: What makes you certain that Obama will have the steam to beat McCain? As a lifelong Democrat, ctivist and donor to the party, I insist that Democracy break out in the Democratic Party and that Hillary can stay in until she has made her argument with voters. After all she is ...
