  • The Big Bailout...Ha!

    There is no need for a bailout of the bank when we can bail them out through tax payer spending...heres how: America has fought hard to become an independent nation and a leader in innovation, so how can we fix our current economic downtrend efficiently? Some seem to think that throwing money at the corporations who failed us is the answer…we all ...

  • 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 ...

  • I Liked Ike -- Now I Like Mike - HUCKABEE, that is

    I liked everything I heard about Mike Huckabee, even before he started running in earnest for his Party's Nomination to be our next U.S. President. The more I learned about Mike Huckabee, the better I liked his candidacy. Further, he is a very well-spoken and persuasive guy, with that down-to-Earth Midwestern style I always liked about ...

  • Kind-a Democracy

    Sadly, My mother and I follow the progression of obstacles mounting in front of the first woman candidate for President in this country that really did seem to have a chance. As she read the latest dissapppointment in her local paper about the halved delegates of Florida - our state, I could tell her enthusiasm for the whole thing in November ...

  • Count them all and she has to win the popular vote

    Commentators are now starting to do the math correctly. Real Clear Politics has six different metrics going from the most to least exclusive. The most inclusive combines caucuses, primaries, Mich and Fla. The latter two will be legitimized on May 31 in some form or other. Currently the most inclusive metric (number 6 in the RCP world) has ...

  • Counting Texas...she'll still win the popular

    Some rationality is entering the debate about the popular vote. Florida has to count for many reasons: (1) it was a Republican legislative and gubernatorial decision to move the primary to that date; (2) both candidates on the ballot; (3) no personal campaigning in the state but Obama (for the only time) bought national cable ads which reached ...

  • Popular Vote Totals in Aggregate Mean Nothing...

    ... and Hillary Clinton is still due to become the Democratic Party nominee for the Presidential run this Fall. If Democratic Party stalwarts fail to understand that Hillary and Bill Clinton are their best package to run against McCain in this 2008 election season, then welcome to another 8, 16, or 32 years of Republicans in the White House, ...

  • Hillary is electable.

    For any one of a hundred reasons- Hillary is more electable and here's why...she has proven experience that's being downplayed by Obama...contrary to the ''tea parties'' he thinks she had, if you remember correctly, how many times did you hear this statement- ''yes I voted for Hillary and her husband''...one could hardly think this was so over ...
