I want to congratulate Joe Biden on becoming the vice presidential running nominee. Joe is a friend and colleague, a strong experienced leader and a devoted public servant. I look forward to not only seeing him in Denver next week but [...]

Woody Allen parodies Hillary

Woody Allen may be the best writer of parody – probably better than Jon Stewart or Steven Colbert. In this clip he is struggling with understanding lost love. The desperation of compromise, of willingness to assume any posture, struck me as quite similar to the methods of the Hillary Clinton campaign.
Senator Clinton cannot believe that [...]

Michael Moore, Larry King, and Hillary

Son,
Michael Moore continues to contribute to the dialogue in this country.  He was on Larry King Live and took calls from the public.
He claims that he will not vote for Hillary because of the Iraq War.  Moore has fundamental morals that guides his thought processes.

He is enlightening, compelling, and entertaining.

Hillary Clinton Super Tuesday Speech

Son,
Hillary Clinton gave an uplifting speech on Super Tuesday.  Clinton and Obama split the vote across the country – so this was not a forceful victory celebration.  But this was probably one of her better presentations as a candidate.
Clinton was eloquent, charming,  and her style was refreshing.  She spoke to the people, and she spoke [...]

The Legacy of Bill Clinton is Hillary Clinton

Son,
The unintended consequence of Bill Clinton’s life was in lending his charm, charisma, and personality to the very intellectual Hillary Rodham. Hillary will ultimately be the central legacy of the Presidency of Bill Clinton.

Thank you Bill Clinton.

Clinton-Obama, Democratic Debate, 1-31-08

Son,
For the first time ever we are watching a woman and an African-American debate for the nomination of their party for President of the United States. Wolf Blitzer has just introduced the candidates. There is a couple of minutes of photo-ops. The stakes are very high – with only five days to the Super Tuesday [...]

Clinton Ambushed Obama in Florida

Son,
Hillary Clinton played a nasty game tonight. She ambushed Barack Obama in Florida. How so? There was no open competition.
The Democratic National Committee chose not to recognize the Florida Primary because Florida chose to move the date of the Primary. The candidates had agreed not to campaign in Florida and to not accept any delegates [...]

Hillary found her voice, his name is Bill

Son,
When Hillary Clinton choked with emotion on the eve of the New Hampshire Primary many people saw her humanity.  Some say that this very personal appeal, this letting down of her guard, this emerging humanity, was the deciding factor in the vote.  She won New Hampshire.  In her victory speech she claimed that, “I have [...]

Bloggers in the White House? What is that about?

Son,
I’m not sure Hillary Clinton understands the narrative nature of blogging. But she does understand the value of interactive media – and the need for unedited content. She was asked a question recently – well, here is the video.

Obama has the national Delegate lead

Son,
This South Carolina primary election is really big.  The Obama campaign was hoping to win up to 20 of the 45 delegates available in South Carolina.  It looks like they will round up over 25 delegates.  Obama already had a couple of delegates lead over Clinton.
This clearly puts Obama in the driver’s seat.  The win [...]

Obama Wins South Carolina- AP says Rout!

Son,
This is a big day in American Politics. Barack Obama has won the South Carolina Democratic Primary. The Associated Press is calling this victory a rout. The white vote split three ways with Obama, Clinton, and Edwards.
What can this mean? Obama continues to show strength. He seemed to lose some steam after Iowa and some [...]

MSNBC Dumbs Down Demographics

Son,
The constant harping on polls by demographics is wearing thin. Chris Matthews and Tim Russert have to be two of the worst. The suggestion is that people can only vote for people like themselves. Women vote for women. Blacks vote for blacks. Matthews votes for Russert. This denigration of masses of people based on demographics [...]

Stewart on Nevada debate – know when to fold.

Son,
Jon Stewart is a great political commentator. His use of humor to point out the obvious that seems to escape the rest of us is unparalleled. I think we see these things but it takes a Jon Stewart to articulate for us what is the source of our uneasiness.

Democratic Debate – January 21, 2008

Son,
These folks are working hard to distinguish themselves from the crowd.  They have similar position on a variety of issues – so what is left to distinguish.  Leadership, character, honesty, courage…  This sounds personal – but I think there is purpose.
Obama has been doing well – and that attracts attention.  Clinton and Edwards both attacked [...]

Meet the Press – Jan 20, 2008, on Obama

Son,
Meet the Press has finally come around to having real journalist participating – rather than have Tim Russert looking for sound bites. This is actually a good discussion on the candidacy of Obama.

Bill Clinton Supports Hillary

Son,
Are you surprised?  Is anyone surprised?  What are the other spouses doing?  But this is Bill Clinton – former President of the United States.  Traditionally former presidents have not taken a position until their party nominee is selected – but this is just another example of the historical ramifications of a former First Lady being [...]
