The latest Gallup tracking poll has Obama back up by 3 points…
Barack Obama has quickly made up the deficit he faced with Hillary Clinton earlier this week, with the latest Gallup Poll Daily tracking update on Democratic presidential nomination preferences showing 48% of Democratic voters favoring Obama and 45% Clinton.

After all of the whining and bitching and complaining by Ohio Republicans about the stupid video of Jennifer Brunner’s deposition, it turns out there was nothing to see except Tim Grendell acting like an asshole.
According to the Dispatch Grendell was seen throwing stacks of documents at the Secretary of State and throwing insults at Assistant […]

I’ve featured nerdcore before in this series; specifically the very fun MC Frontalot.
Tonight, it’s ytcracker, replete with 8-bit samples and some seriously obscure references. Enjoy something you’ll probably never hear on ClearChannel. (Language warning.)

Fun fact - he’s swiping at mc chris in this song. mc chris voiced Hesh on Sealab 2021 as […]

Spot on Casey! Thanks for speaking truth to fear…and power.

Easy answer? No. Hell no. Political suicide. Hillary made the fatal mistake of running as the “experienced” candidate in an era when the people want change. Both Edwards and Obama have had a change message the entire time.
I’ve said from the beginning that Edwards/Obama was my favorite ticket. […]

In his endorsement of Barack Obama today, Bill Richardson said:
The New Mexico governor joined Sen. Obama at spirited rally Friday and said the Illinois senator demonstrated his leadership abilities this week with his speech on race. “You are a once-in-a-lifetime leader,” the governor said from the stage. “Above all, you will be a president who […]

Haven’t I been saying this for some time now?
One big fact has largely been lost in the recent coverage of the Democratic presidential race: Hillary Rodham Clinton has virtually no chance of winning.
All she is doing is hurting the party right now. Super-delegates would be good to recognize this fact. […]

On this day (March 21st) 1980 President Carter announced that the U.S. would be boycotting the summer Olympics in Moscow because the Soviets had troops in Afghanistan.
It’s 28 years later and now OUR troops are in Afghanistan (and Iraq, etc.) and again some are suggesting we boycott the Olympics in Beijing because China has troops […]

Richardson finally endorses. Better late than never, I suppose.
“As a presidential candidate, I know full well Senator Obama’s unique moral ability to inspire the American people to confront our urgent challenges at home and abroad in a spirit of bipartisanship and reconciliation.”
His endorsement would have been a lot more useful before the Texas primary […]

OK, so I’ve had a bad day. Not only is my team out but I’m also bringing up the rear in my own pool! Yuck. But hey. Lotta time left. Don’t count me out! Here are the results of day one:
Points are awarded by round. Each win in […]

Congrats to Team Billary. The race baiting attacks seem to be working as planned in good old PA:
A week ago, her customers at Rauchut’s Tavern in Tacony didn’t have much to say about Barack Obama. But when she returned to work Wednesday, a day after the Illinois senator attempted to quell the furor over […]

Just now on MSNBC. 2 employees at the State Department have been fired and a third suspended over a security breach that led to Barack Obama’s passport information being accessed without authorization. Three different occasions by three different individuals.
The Obama camp responds:
“This is an outrageous breach of security and privacy, even […]

I was flipping through channels last night when I found something horribly disturbing on Fox News: Hannity and Colmes.
Sean Hannity opens this segment by showing some video of another Obama-supporting minister (and Illinois state senator) James Meeks.
According to Hannity, Meeks has been “criticized by the gay community for calling homosexuality an evil sickness.”
And who […]

Q: At what point does a christian leader become a christofascist asshat?
A: When he aggressively pursues a hate-filled agenda that attempts to suppress and censor anyone who doesn’t have the same beliefs
The perfect example of a christofascist asshat is Richard Land> Land typically focuses on important issues like trying to take away reproductive rights […]
