Ralph Nader is a bigger fool than I had ever realized. Nader, who has thrown his irrelevant hat into the presidential ring, has some advice for Mike Gravel, Libertarian candidate; get out of the race. Nader actually sounds like he’s talking about himself, especially the last paragraph.
“Mike Gravel should get out of the race, and [...]

It’s interesting that the MSM and many voters believe that John Edwards is consistently in third place. Thanks goodness the Iowa voters don’t listen to the MSM and the third place believers. John Edwards has scored first place by Iowa voter.

As the January 3 Iowa caucuses draw near, media outlets [...]

Well, there ya’ go. Our wonderful, all wise, all knowing Senatorial pets of President Bush ” approved a measure sending another rebuke to Tehran”.
The Senate, showing it was not convinced by Ahmadinejad’s proclamations, approved the nonbinding measure on a 76-22 vote. It was sponsored by Sens. Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., and Joe Lieberman, [...]

OpEd: Watching this debate, if you can call it that, I am getting personality overfill.

Again, Gravel is a hoot with a message. Gravel has a grip on the structure of politics and the underworld of politics as defined by money.  He needs to write a book or teach a college level ethics course, [...]

First let me say that for some reason BossKitty’s post on HRC Democratic Candidate Forum is not showing the comment number, however, there are several good comments posted.
Now my thoughts; I liked the intimate forum but the time for each candidate seemed very short. Wrong move for Dodd and Binden as no shows……hmmmm trying to [...]

Democrats spar at blog gathering
Seven of the Democratic candidates for US president have fielded questions from more than 1,000 political bloggers at an annual convention in Chicago. Correspondents say the candidates’ presence reflects the growing influence of such bloggers, seen as a key resource by candidates. The candidates’ appearance at the YearlyKos Convention follows a [...]

I loved the format. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but then neither were the candidates. The format was such a refreshing break from the same old journalist prepared questions. It put real citizen in the debate. I felt it made the candidates answer a bit more honestly. I hope this format continues.
What I didn’t [...]

Tonight CNN & YouTube will host the democratic debate, 7:00 p.m. EST. Personally I’m looking forward to this format; debates have become too scripted for me. The candidates won’t see the questions before hand. They won’t have scripted answers. The candidates will actually have to think off the top of their heads.  I’m sure their [...]
