  • Worst Candidate ALWAYS Wins U.S. Elections

    Looking back on United States Presidential Election History, I have concluded that the WORST Candidate ALWAYS Wins the Election for the U.S. Presidency. I could cite all the examples, such as Wendel Wilkie, Adlai Stevenson, Richard Nixon, Michael Dukakis, Al Gore and George H. Walker Bush (Senior) along with George W. Bush (Junior); but you get ...

  • Bush Redeems Himself - from Katrina, to Gustav

    The main benefit of this new hurricane in the New Orleans, Louisiana area, if you can in any way couch this natural disaster redux in such terms, is that President Bush and the current Republican White House and Administration get to improve their performance. Already, Bush is on the ground and in charge. Our President has appeared on my ...

  • Re: Is The Media Bias? Here is Evidence of Bias

    Media bias is a perceived notion that certain press has and is pushing a viewpoint, instead of reporting news or airing programs in an objective way. That is the way I see it. Such bias often refers to media as a whole, such as a newspaper chain, or a given television or radio network, instead of individual reporters or writers of television ...

  • Barack buyer's remorse

    I've read a lot of these ''here is what Obama needs to do'' articles lately. I agree oftentimes with what I read. I think the author's know their subjects and have great progressive points of view on how this country could and should move forward. The problem with these articles is that the authors write as if they know Obama and know what his ...

  • Dem Popular Vote: Wow . . . it's real close!

    7,374,222 7,374,222 So, I was complaining about the lack of data on total vote counts from yesterday's primaries. Using CNN's up to date numbers, I did it myself. Note that not all precincts are in, but generally states have reported 90+ percent (most in the high 90s). So, as of now, where we are in Feb. 5 caucus goer and voter ...

  • Will your vote count?

    I'm a self proclaimed political junkie....having said that, the sad truth is that my vote doesn't count and never will. I live in the largest city in Alaska (which isn't big at all by outside standards), however, we have such paltry representation electorally that politicians don't even bother with us...except perhaps to mock our heavily pork ...
