The bill does have a veto proof majority in both houses, so it might get overturned. The big question – will John McCain show up to help insure the veto gets overturned, or will he miss it and try to claim victory if it succeeds? This is what he did on the original vote – […]
January? (h/t Oliver Willis) I have been involved in some elections over the years, and I want to give John McCain some advice. This will come at no charge. The final two months of an election are the make or break period. I would suggest you save all your money and efforts and put them […]
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 […]

It’s looking more and more like Obama could come out the winner in pledged delegates. With every victory we get closer to needing an answer on the super delegate question. Rachel Maddow said last night that if Obama wins the pledged delegates and the Super Delegates give it to Hillary then there will “be torches […]
I certainly hope not: The images in the Basra police file are nauseating: Page after page of women killed in brutal fashion — some strangled to death, their faces disfigured; others beheaded.

That […]
