Hillary Clinton has an iPod. Yeah, and so do Condi, Dubya, and at least half of Washington, based on my observations during the morning and evening commutes. What’s on it is the real interesting question.
“I’ve got everything — a total smorgasbord,” the 58-year-old senator said.
Songs from Clinton’s youth figure heavily in the selection of about […]
That’s it. As of today, or at least as soon as my county board of elections gets my updated voter registration, I am no longer a registered Democrat. I am officially unaffiliated. Why, you ask? Well, I guess it was Howard Dean who put the icing on the cake when he went belly-crawling to Pat […]
You may have noticed over the last few days that I failed to hop on the “filibuster Alito” bandwagon this weekend. Oh, I’ve blogged about his nomination, etc. But in the past week or so, the moderate head of steam I’d worked up pretty much fizzled out. There are a couple of reasons for that. […]
It’s hammer-and-nail time, folks. If the blog posts I’ve been seeing lately are any indication, people are already thinking in terms of progressive platforms for 2006 and beyond. Over at MyDD, Matt Stoller posted his idea of a platform for 2006, which instantly reminded me of a post I saw over at DemSpeak a couple […]
Listening to Democratic politicians talk about Iraq these days is alot like when an old boyfriend — who seemed to be just not that into you before — suddenly starts calling again, singing a different tune, and with a lot more sweet talk than before. It’s flattering in a way, and a little vindication […]
Yesterday, I hung out with a group of progressive political blogger types, celebrating the recent Democratic victories in Virginia and New Jersey, though I still have my misgivings about the Kaine victory and what it might mean for the future. Like I said before, I can’t help wondering if one of the outcomes of the […]
I haven’t experienced a post-election morning like this since the 1992 presidential election. Democratic gubernatorial candidates won in Virginia (which Bush carried in 2004, and where he made 11th hour campaign appearances with the Republican Candidate) and New Jersey. Arnold Schwarzeneggar got a serious beat-down at the polls. Even the Democratic Mayor of St. […]
What else need be said?
(OK. Truth be known, the idea of Hillary in 2008 doesn’t exactly thrill me. But how could I not post about this site.)

You may remember New York Senate candidate Jean Pirro from her press conference announcing her candidacy, an event which left the candidate herself speechless. Well, I couldn’t help sharing the latest funny little item from the Pirro campaign. Apparently, she’s doing fundraising outreach to Democrats, and she’s even crazy enough to hit Hillary Clinton up […]
I think Roxanne may be on to something. What bring is to mind is the latest poll showing Bush losing support among his base.
Bush’s supporters are uneasy about issues such as federal deficits, immigration and his latest nomination for the Supreme Court. Social conservatives are concerned about his choice of Miers, a relatively unknown lawyer […]
This seems particularly appropriate as I’m sitting in New York City’s Penn Station. At a time when many potential GOP candidates are just saying no when party officials ask them to run, former New York Mayor Rudy Guiliani is hinting at a White House Run in ‘08.
Rudolph Giuliani said Wednesday that he plans to return […]
That’s what the Daily Kos straw poll says this month.
For the record, I voted for “Other”; something I’ve wanted to do more often lately, when it comes to picking a candidate, given the likelihood of any candidate who truly represented my values actually winning a nomination, let alone a general election.
Clark/Feingold? Certainly wouldn’t have been […]
Christopher Walken, that is.
When I first saw the item in my newsreader Saturday morning, I didn’t bother to click through to read, thinking it was a joke.
Last night I stumbled across it on TalkLeft, and clicked through to the website. It seems all too real, but at the same time the overall feel of […]
