Are polls off due to the increased popularity in people having cell phones only? This is interesting, and the younger generation seem more into the cell-phone only way of living now. This is Obama’s key demographic also. Perhaps the pollsters need to reevaluate their way of polling. I guess they couldn’t run a poll asking […]
Right after Obama became the nominee, the polls had Obama ahead of McCain by only a couple of points. The media used that to ask why Obama wasn’t winning by more. Their argument was that people wanted change and the polls aren’t showing that with Obama. Fast forward a couple of weeks. Obama is now […]
Well when you are trying to save your career then that’s the case. Oregon Senator Gordon Smith is trying to align himself with Obama in his latest ad: To be fair, Smith has been an outspoken critic of Iraq, but the Obama campaign isn’t buying into this attempt of Smith’s to save his butt: Barack […]
Here’s the email the Obama campaign just sent out: Friend — The polls are closed in Kentucky and votes are being counted in Oregon, and it’s clear that tonight we have reached a major milestone on this journey. We have won an absolute majority of all the delegates chosen by the people in this Democratic […]

In other words, “screw what the voter wants“. I have been speaking to a lot of Democrats lately who are fed up with their party. From the waffling of the leadership in the House and Senate, to this entire delegate mess, they are tired of it. Something has to be done soon or the Independent […]
Currently Obama is ahead by 125 pledged delegates. The Clinton campaign is hoping to end the primary season only behind by 30 delegates. As near as I can tell that is going to be extremely hard to achieve. Going through numerous scenarios they might end up down 75-100 pledged delegates, but I wouldn’t be surprised […]
