Chafee crossing party lines to endorse a Democrat. Wow. Of course the wingers will write this off as Chafee being a RINO, but it is still a big endorsements.

While supporting the thought of super delegates swaying the vote to Hillary: Don’t change the rules in the middle of the game – or, more accurately, don’t game the rules to change the outcome. Interesting idea. So why is it that Hillary is doing this exact thing when it comes to Michigan and Florida? Also […]

Because Senate won’t confirm all the people he wants. What this Washington Post article fails to mention is that a lot of them are held up because Bush wants one key person confirmed. There is a little mention of that person: Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.) chastised Bush for sticking with nominees who […]

I was just doing my nightly dose of eye bleeding browsing of the right wing dribble out there (hey everyone likes a good nightmare), when I noticed this at Red state: Update: For another entrant into the below-mentioned department of legislation, check out this oldie but goodie from 2006: a Democrat State Senator from Ohio […]

Last year when the netroots were going after Joe Lieberman for being a Republican in Democratic clothing, the wingnuts attacked us for it.

This was one of the best debates so far. I think all the candidates did good. It could have gone without the fight between Clinton and Obama, but Edwards became the star out of that. He shined tonight and showed what we need in a President. One thing I have a problem with is this […]

Of course the White House thinks their study is not credible: The White House possesses no archived e-mail messages for many of its component offices, including the Executive Office of the President and the Office of the Vice President, for hundreds of days between 2003 and 2005, according to the summary of an internal White […]

This will be an interesting case to watch The Supreme Court announced yesterday that it will review the constitutionality of the so-called Millionaires’ Amendment, which allows opponents of some self-funded congressional candidates to raise more money than federal law normally allows. The court’s decision would come in time to affect the 2008 congressional campaigns. The […]

To none other than John McCain: Sen. John McCain, trying to keep momentum in this state’s critical Republican primary race, brought in something unusual on Monday — an endorsement from the other party. Sen. Joseph Lieberman, the Democrats’ 2000 vice presidential nominee, said he was intending to wait until after the primaries to make a […]
