There was an Old Nation
There was an old nation song There was an old nation who swallowed nattering nabobs I don't know why she swallowed nattering nabobs - perhaps she'll die! There was an old nation who swallowed swamp gas, That wriggled and wiggled and tiggled inside her; She swallowed swamp gas to catch the nattering nabobs; I don't know why she swallowed ...

Re: "mccain cuts list of VP possibilities to 20 names"
Oh am taking a shot at it, 1. jeb bush (for real) Only if Obama wins, with all the stumping Obama has been doing for former Republican presidents, it would cause him to do a quick 180 esp as Obama has stated that Jeb's dad is who he would emulate as President 2. ahnold schwarznegger (he can't be elected president, but he can ...

Democrat Double Standard
So, I take it that Democrats everywhere and the entire media (with the exception of Keith Olberman) have decided that we should somehow just accept this new double standard for male and female candidates for president?

Maybe Ferraro should have Sullivan at her side
I can understand the argument that Obama's race benefits him when explained by Andrew Sullivan, however, that is not at all the way I understood Geraldine Ferraro's statements, which she has made repeatedly.

Clinton on Obama - Explaining the Anger
Senator Hillary Clinton has been a puzzle to me of late, as have a few of her supporters. I am a minor Obama supporter. My wife and I sent him a $25 donation. But I have liked Senator Clinton. That may be why I have observed her campaign with a vague sense of surprise. It has been a jarring sort of disconnect to see some of her tactics. I ...

The problem with an Obama nomination
Barack Obama will make a excellent President, but not yet. He is only two, or so years out of the Illinois State legislature. He just does not have the experience to be in charge of the mighty nuclear arsenal of The United States. He proved that by his decision to vote against the war in Iraq. Yes, that sounds crazy, but realize that the ...
