As many know I have been saying for over a year this is the election of the independents, who are repulsed by the fringes left and right and their manic obsession with party purity. It was the denigrating comments of the far right that lost the independents to the Dems in 2006, and it is […]

I was checking in to see what news was out today and glanced at the RCP state-by-state poll numbers as was absolutely stunned to see John McCain leading in OH. Last time I looked Obama was pretty far ahead (too early to focus on the states right now). So I went to the RCP Ohio […]

Obama is just not closing the sale with Hillary supporters (the most dejected of which are shifting to McCain) a new USA Today/Gallup poll shows: Fewer than half of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s supporters in the presidential primaries say they definitely will vote for Barack Obama in November, a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll finds, evidence of a […]

This is just the kind of ad the Democrats fear: The reason they fear it is because they dare not attack the young democrat woman who has decided experience is much more important than ‘change’ (whatever that means). But attacked she will be, by the arrogant and oppressive purity police that inhabit both parties and […]

Barack Obama is asking a lot of Joe Biden. He is asking Joe Biden to go out and be his political Pit Bull and attack McCain in line with Obama’s misguided policies and shaded spin. But can Biden take back all those nice things he said about McCain over the years and retain any credibility […]

I predicted Obama would be behind in the polls when the Democrat Convention began, but it turns out he will only be tied with McCain in some key polls. The Gallup Daily Tracking Poll yesterday had the presidential race a tie: CNN also has it a dead heat. The other polls at RCP show statistical […]

Update: This about sums it up: Obama hired a pit bull because, at his core, he is nothing but a politician and he felt the needed to cover up his insecurity on national security. And that is from a pro-democrat media news outlet!     – end update Not much new substance to post on […]

Update: And in case anyone missed it  Biden voted for the Iraq war and supported funding the troops while Obama supported retreat at any cost: Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden on Tuesday accused his rivals for the 2008 nomination who are fellow U.S. senators of voting against the safety of troops deployed in Iraq. “As […]

Friday evenings are when bad news comes out that people hope will be missed by most of America. Summer time Fridays are the best because people are off work and heading for their weekend. It is now 5:00 PM Eastern and Obama has missed the window on his VP selection for America this week.   […]

McCain is going to benefit big time from this Obama screw up: There’s one Democrat who would seem to have little or no chance of being picked by Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) to be his running mate – his former opponent, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.).  But it’s not for the reason you think.  Obama has often said, […]
