Dodd on Ending the Primary and the Media’s Role In Prolonging It
March 28th, 2008 · 1 Comment
Via TRex, my guy Chris Dodd is speaking out with an eye towards resolving the Democratic nominating process.
Look, we’ve got five more months to go before the Democratic convention at the end of August and, candidly, we cannot go five more months with the kind of daily sniping that’s going on and have a candidate […]

No, Not Really

Marc Ambinder asks:
Can you imagine, or envision, a Democratic/Netroots’ based Senate challenge to Clinton in four years?
No, not really. For there to be a primary challenge of Hillary Clinton, there would have to be a Democrat willing to run against her. Hillary Clinton probably has the highest name ID of any Democrat in America not […]

Calls on Clinton Beginning…
March 7th, 2008 · 3 Comments
I’m sure it’s happened elsewhere before this, but my RSS reader has produced two calls for Hillary Clinton to drop out, in the interest of her inability to surpass Obama’s pledged delegate lead, likely inability to pass Obama with super delegates, and a desire to focus on defeating John W. McSame.
Bob Cesca is a big […]

Answers Needed

Scarecrow at FireDogLake wants Obama and Clinton to answer some important questions before they take office.
1. Given that the Bush/Cheney regime has been the most lawless and destructive of Constitutional safeguards in our lifetimes, what do you intend to do to bring those who flouted the law to justice? If nothing, how do you expect […]

Wow: Texas Will Be in Play
March 6th, 2008 · Comments Off
Burnt Orange Report brings the good news - Texas will be in play in the general election.
Survey USA has just completed massive nationwide, state-by-state polling of match-ups in the presidential race. While both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama would rack up winning scenarios nationally, what is most stunning is that Texas, yes-Texas, is a swing […]

Florida & Michigan
March 6th, 2008 · 1 Comment
Over at TAPPED, Mark Schmidt has a sensible solution to the Michigan and Florida delegate situation, though it comes from an Obama standpoint. The short version is that Obama should let Florida’s delegates be seated as is in exchange for a new caucus in Michigan. This would give Clinton a gain in delegates that wouldn’t […]

Today’s Pie Fight
March 6th, 2008 · Comments Off
The delegate tallying in Texas from Tuesday isn’t even finished and already the Clinton and Obama campaigns have resumed nasty campaigning on a line that will guarantee even more nasty campaigning in coming days and weeks.
I’m with John Aravosis - Clinton was right in 2000 when she criticized Rick Lazio for not releasing his tax […]

More Debates
March 6th, 2008 · 4 Comments
It occurs to me that now that the Democratic nomination process is likely to continue in earnest for at least another seven weeks, Clinton and Obama will probably be compelled to debate each other at least once or twice more. I can’t say that prospect excites me.

Looking Forward At the Democratic Nomination
March 5th, 2008 · 4 Comments
It’s the morning after Whatever People Finally Decided To Call It Tuesday. As the polls consistently showed going in, Clinton won Ohio, withstanding late tightening. She also won the Texas popular vote; though many polls showed Obama taking a small lead, it was (as far as I recall seeing) always within the margin of error. […]
