Diebold Accidentally Leaks Results Of 2008 Election Early

Nothing would surprise me when it comes to this election. After all why should this election be any different. General Boykin preached in 2000, America was in a holy war as “a Christian nation” battling Satan and that America’s Muslim adversaries will be defeated “only if we come against...

The Superdelegate Surge

Since his primary win in North Carolina, Senator Barack Obama has moved from a gradual trickle to a near avalanche of superdelegates who have moved to support the senators bid for president. The tide is so in Senator Obama’s favor that if this continues at anywhere near this pace there will be an...

Free Health Care

What do we do? Free health care is something this country needs but doing it like Canada or other European countries is not the best way to get the services that everyone needs in a timely manor. I really have no idea on this one and need to find a solution because it bothers me to the deepest part...

West Virginia to determine the election?

If West Virginia is to determine the next election, then there is something seriously wrong with this country: Like most people in Mingo County, West Virginia, Leonard Simpson is a lifelong Democrat. But given a choice between Barack Obama and John McCain in November, the 67-year-old retired...

Check Your Bearings: Meet Zell Miller 2008

Lieberman has checked McCain's bearings. Ewwww. Now he wants to be Zell Miller for 2008. Next, I guess he will challenge Chris Matthews to a duel.

SNL:Hillary Finally tells the Truth!

I noticed No one from the Clinton side threw a coniption fit when they did this to Barack Obama TWICE As a matter of fact, they were cheering the Obama skits it on and saying that it was about time the Media gets him. Now the tides have turned. Hillary even commented on SNL in the Texas debate....

The Impossible Obama

Additionally, my wife found my first gray hair this evening. I am ecstatic, having desired a touch of gray since I was 17 or...

Is This What’s Next?

Today Senator Barack Obama was parading around like he had just won an Olympic gold medal. He was in the public and on television beginning a media blitz. But, what are the other two candidates from the major parties doing? Senator Hillary Clinton’s camp was busy writing a letter to Senator Obama....

An Upset ... Hilldawg's days are numbered

Hilldawg was supposed to win convincingly here.... eeecked by with a 1.8% victory. Essentially a tie since delegates are divided proportionately. I'm guessing she concedes next Wednesday if not sooner. As well, in the 2004 Hendricks Co. Primary, the Rep:Dem voting ratio was 80:20. This time it was...

Missed It By THAT Much

This is the kind of non-landslide victory an Evan Bayh endorsement will get you - 2%. I'm guessing Senator Bayh's name was crossed off the list of potential running mates.

The path for Obama is looking better

With the large margin of victory in North Carolina (14 points) and the narrow margin of loss in Indiana (1.8 points or 23,000 votes) means that the delegates gained in each contest wipes away the ones Hillary earned in Pennsylvania. The Clinton camp canceled the morning television visits, there's...

With Love, John McCain

It's finally happened! After years of hiding, the G.O.P. has finally found us, and they're striking back with a vengence. That's right, today when I got home, I got the mail and there it was, a white envelope with the return address of John McCain's Washington office. The Republican presumtive...

Race, gender, and age

If you watch, listen to, or read the commentaries on the primaries taking place every couple of weeks, the news has drifted into a public battle of race, age, and gender. I have been struck by the amount of news that basically states that Senator Hillary Clinton is winning over middle class, whites...

Civic Duty

If you're a North Carolinian, don't forget to vote! And Indiana people, too, but I don't think any of my readers live in Indiana. (What do you call a person from Indiana? Indianans? Indianians? Indianites? I should ask my brothers because they all attended college in Indiana. Once I referred to...

CD6 Followup

Well, I learned a lot at the 6th Congressional District Assembly and Convention. For starters, there were three lines to get into the building. On the left there was an Obama alternate line. Immediately to the right of that was a Hillary alternate line. Then, way over to the right was a combined...
