In a moment of masochism, I checked out Politico’s Superdelegate page. Here was something that struck me: American Samoa has six superdelegates; Arizona has eleven.
That’s right. Arizona has nearly 90 times as many people, but barely gets twice as many supers as American Samoa. American Samoa has about 67,000 people, a bit fewer than Apache […]
This hit my e-mail box mere moments ago…
May 8, 2008 (Washington, DC) — MrSuper.org is a website which was created in March to debunk myths, offer insight and answer questions about the 2008 Democratic nomination process for President. The author, who has been posting under the pseudonym “Mr. Super” will announce his identity today.
The site […]
After reading this about Hillary Clinton’s chief strategist Mark Penn, there are some other bits of advice that he might need before embarking on his next competitive endeavor:
Those pieces that look like horses can jump over other pieces
A flush beats a straight
The goalkeeper can use his hands
You can’t strike out on a foul
Those big dots […]
Ah, funny thing this politics.
The line from many pundits (and two Barack Obama supporters I talked to) is that Obama may not want Hillary Clinton to drop out yet.
The reason is her lead in West Virginia and Kentucky, two of the states which vote next week. Obama being beaten by active candidate Clinton in those states would be […]
The Tucson Citizen used to have an editor named Peter Bronson. His editorials were usually in that faux populist territory now also occupied by Bill O’Reilly and company. The thesis espoused in every one of his pieces was “Democrats are effete know it alls, as opposed to Republicans who are all working stiffs that throw […]
This is from Josh Marshall at Talking Points Memo:
NBC just reported that Hillary Clinton is holding no public events tomorrow. We’d earlier reported that she’d cancelled her morning show appearances. But that’s not that surprising. There’s not a lot good to talk about. But canceling all public appearances, if that’s what they’re saying, is a […]
The polls are closing in North Carolina and Indiana, so I guess that means all of this gets resolved tonight, right?
Do I have to weigh in on this gas tax holiday nonsense?
First off, doesn’t Hillary Clinton notice that she is agreeing with both John McCain and George Bush (who is “entertaining” the idea) on this? Wouldn’t that be an indication that this is not such a great idea? She’s agreeing with McCain, who admits he doesn’t […]
I read today that Barack Obama has secured the endorsement of Paul Kirk. The reports all say that Kirk was a former chairman of the Democratic Party. Of course, long time readers of DC Comics know that Kirk was The Manhunter. The cover-up of this is further evidence of the MSM Conspiracy.
No word yet on the […]
I was talking to a Barack Obama booster the other day, and he noted that if he had been struck as a Hillary Clinton delegate, he’d be ticked off given how many folks who got left on their list couldn’t be bothered to actually show up to run.
I was taken aback by a couple of names they […]
