Alvin Greene and his people suddenly realized that they can spit hot fire. So why not take the next logical step, and do a little Alvin Greene rap for the campaign? The video– complete with a family values theme, tea party anti-Obama hate signs, and a rusty sounding vocoder– might just be the thing to [...]

Alvin Greene is not ready for prime time television. This is one of the most bizarre situations I’ve seen in politics in quite some time.

Three Reasons Why Jim Bunning’s GOP Is Out Of Touch With America
March 4th, 2010 · No Comments · News, Politics, Republicans, america
Senator Jim Bunning, R-(KY): Last week, Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., asked to pass a 30-day extensions bill for unemployment insurance and other federal programs. Earlier in February, those extensions were included in a broader bipartisan bill that was paid for but did not meet Sen. Reid’s approval, and he nixed the deal. When I [...]

Harold Ford Is The Everyman

“Now I’ve taken a 45-day unpaid leave of absence from my job at Merrill Lynch. It’s not right to draw a salary when I’m out every day campaigning. Fortunately, I’ve still got a little NYU teaching job and some MSNBC, so for a while I think I can put food on the table. Okay look. [...]

Congratulations to Massachusetts State Senator Scott Brown, for winning the special senate election in Massachusetts. The seat was held by Edward Kennedy for almost 50 years before his passing last year. The win for the GOP complicates Democrats attempts at not only passing health care reform, but other policy issues as well. Is this a [...]
Chris Dodd: The Birth Of A Legacy
January 7th, 2010 · No Comments · Democrats, News, Politics, america
Christopher J. Dodd’s been a senator from the state of Connecticut for over 30 years. Growing up in Southeastern Connecticut, I recall Senator Dodd as an affable, yet towering figure. He was admired, and often emulated by those aspiring to replicate his success. A son of the nutmeg state, Dodd grew up in Willimantic, probably [...]
End Of An Era

I suppose the conundrum as been solved. Dodd’s done: With poll after poll showing Dodd trailing, it became increasingly clear that his candidacy was not salvageable. A senior Democratic official said Dodd’s long-rumored, and always-denied, retirement plans were “inevitable – like gravity.” Still, a source familiar with Dodd’s plans insisted late Tuesday that there was [...]

Death Panels Two, Old People Zero… This Health Care Thing Could Actually Be Happening
November 23rd, 2009 · No Comments · Democracy, Democrats, Health Care, News, Politics, Republicans, america
Well, now we got something! The Senate voted for the right to talk about health care reform over the weekend. That doesn’t sound right does it? Haven’t they been talking about this for months now? Anyway, Majority Leader Harry Reid (shown praying for baseball sized hail to smite his GOP adversaries) managed to cobble together [...]
