Well, I am not sure what Barack Obama is thinking, but he is snubbing a lot of very heavy hitters in the Democratic party and is sure to make a ton of enemies doing it.
So who has he told to NOT come to the convention?
1. Kwame Kilpatrick – this was predictable, but he is an [...]

In the emails and memos the Atlantic recently uncovered from inside the Clinton campaign comes a little memo from Clinton’s chief strategist. Mark Penn spoke about the weakness of Obama in all the battleground states and how only a 5pt swing towards McCain would result in a crushing defeat for Obama in the General Election.
Well, [...]

In a follow up to my piece about Obama failing the 3AM phone call test on the Russia/Georgia conflict, it turns out McCain is stepping up and telling Obama; “I got this one.”
According to TPM McCain has announced that he is sending his top 2 people to Georgia, Graham and Lieberman…
From TPM

I don’t know the particulars or the details… all I know is that the camera equipment used to make the PUMApac documentary has been stolen.
Thankfully, the tapes are still in safe hands, but this is putting a big dent in the project and delaying future filming.
If you can, help HERE with any donation you can!

Go ahead… guess.
If you guess… you might be right Wright!
Yep, our old friend Reverend Jerimiah “Gawd Damn America” Wright is going on a book tour to promote his new book, and when did he choose to do it?
That’s right… October.
He is going on tour in the worst possible month for Obama, but it is sure [...]

On the heels of the reports of ACORN voter registration irregularities in New Mexico brought to light by GRL at Insight Analytical comes a new report about irregularities in New Orleans and the surrounding parishes (aka counties).

Liberal Rapture has a fantastic article on a new organization called “Accountable America.”
Liberal Rapture has the following to say about them…
A bunch of Obama whores named Accountable America is about to start a real s**tstorm. This group sent out a warning letter that, in essence, says that donors to the GOP will be dragged through [...]

Doesn’t anyone in the media find it odd that Obama raised in a year what it took Clinton several years to build?
Doesn’t anyone in the media find it odd that the party elders like Kerry and Kennedy would back an unknown newbie, even though their constituency was clearly held the opposite view?
Doesn’t anyone in the media [...]

This post is a perfect example of why I love this blog. Joe hits it out of the park on this one and shows the complete stupidity of the Obama camp, the DNC and the kool aid drinkers also known as Obamatrons.
These people called the people that don’t support Obama liars, racists and worse… told [...]

In a very interesting move, AT&T has signed on to sponsor and help pay for the woefully underfunded DNC 2008 Denver Convention just weeks after the party’s presumptive nominee voted for the FISA bill that gave the telecommunications companies immunity from civil action, which could have cost the industry untold millions.
I am not saying that [...]

The LA Times reports a new very interesting little tidbit… Hillary bought a website with a very interesting year attached to her name… 2012. Could it be?
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2008/07/hillary-clint-4.html
Sometimes a website name is just a website name.
Maybe the move by a company that’s worked closely with the former first lady is just what it seems: yet another [...]

Barack Obama is not the only one revising their website. Oprah Winfrey seems to have gotten in on the action.
Last year, Oprah Winfrey came out and endorsed Barack Obama, calling him “The One,” an allusion to either Jesus or to Neo of The Matrix. I am not sure which.
And so, Oprah lost a good portion [...]

The DNC is getting worried. The party is not uniting behind their hand picked choice they chose to shove down out throats… The DNC’s fundraising is horrendously short of goals, and even with the “windfall” fundraising that Obama had in June, they are falling behind John McCain and the RNC. And in a year that [...]
