John and Kay-Bailey?  Why not! I can guess where Hillary’s voters will start swinging en mass:   Texas Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison’s long-shot prospect for vice president is getting a push from conservative and other pundits in the lead-up to next week’s Republican National Convention. The latest flurry of speculation online and on cable television […]

Two days down and Obama keeps slipping in the polls.  Now Rasmussen as McCain up one point as well. I fail to see how the Democrat Convention can be salvaged. If this continues I am wondering when the reverse coat tails will start to come into play and start destroying the Dems plans for expanding […]

Boy, stick a fork in the dems this year – they are done.  I could not get through Hillary’s speech, but through a glaring omission she pretty much torpedoed Barack for 08: I’ll amend this if I’m mistaken but on first read of Hillary’s speech text I see no clear, flat assertion that Obama is […]

Major Update Below: I want to add to my piece about how Hillary fell flat last night with her speech. Generally speaking there is no harmony in Denver, the theme coming across is dissonance, forced fronts and angst. Probably being fed by a combination of inexperience and buyer’s remorse. What struck me with the Hillary […]

OK, I hate conventions.  You get hour after hour of kindergarten level logic and sound bites parading as magical solutions to problems that are mostly self inflicted because people didn’t realize they need to work and prepare for life so they can have a good career and make and save money to live on. Both […]

Looks like my prediction about Obama sliding behind McCain was off by a few days. I predicted it would happen before the Dem Convention in the Gallup Daily Tracking Poll: But what comes up must come down, as we say in physics. And what this tells me is when attention does move from the Olympics […]

This story is good news overall, a group of idiots have been arrested on gun and drug charges with the claim they were going to attempt to assassinate Barack Obama during his speech: CBS4 has learned at least four people are under arrest in connection with a possible plot to kill Barack Obama at his […]

While I was waiting for Michelle Obama to speak tonight, I was reminded of Sherry Palmer in the first episode of 24. Sherry Palmer is a very strong, smart woman who knows how to play the political game. She knew which groups of people she could be a strong outspoken black woman and which groups […]

OK, give Michelle a big D- for her speech tonight. First off, she went way too quickly to the dead father analogy. I grieve for her and her family for the loss of a wonderful father (I can tell, she is a very successful woman). But don’t shove that down my throat as a reason […]

What is going to be the top of the news over the next few days at the Dem convention? Bill Ayers. That is now a given after the Obama campaign has released a really dumb ad attempting to distract America from a terrible association he has had, stomping all over the other ‘themes’ being trotted […]
