Yeah, He did.
Hillary is remaining mum and has moved on to Texas. I think at this point, that she hasn’t got a prayer in hell of getting chosen.
I can’t honestly say that I’m bothered by that, really. She would just be an extension of Bill Clinton.
Time to call it a day Hillary.
Meanwhile, on the G.O.P. side, John McCain did very well.
My question is, why the heck does Huckabee keep hanging on?
You can’t fix stupid, I suppose.
To try an hang dirt on Obama. Take this for instance.
The good part, Also known as a lie:
What was especially noteworthy about his Virginia speech were the diversions Obama took from the prepared text. Because of Obama’s improvised moments, this speech was different than the usual fare he offers.
[Obama:] “Now I understand some of the excitement doesn’t have to do with me. I know that whatever else happens whatever twists and turns this campaign may take, when you go into that polling place next November, the name George Bush won’t be on the ballot and that makes everybody pretty cheerful. Everyone’s happy about that. The name of my cousin Dick Cheney won’t be on the ballot. That was embarrassing when that news came out. When they do these genealogical surveys, you want to be related to somebody cool. So, but, his name went be on the ballot.
“Each of us running for the Democratic nomination agrees on one thing that the other party does not–that the next president must end the disastrous policies of George W. Bush. No more Scooter Libby Justice! No more Brownie incompetence! No more Karl Rove politics.”
I agree with John Cole:
BTW- Has Dean ever heard President Bush speak? With or without a teleprompter?
Hear Hear, The man is inherently a dumb ass. At least Obama can string a sentence together without sounding like an idiot.
Sounds like Dean is just pissed because his party has got two idiots running….again.

The Story: For Clinton, Bid Hinges on Texas and Ohio (Via New York Times)
“She has to win both Ohio and Texas comfortably, or she’s out,” said one superdelegate who has endorsed Mrs. Clinton, and who spoke on condition of anonymity to share a candid assessment. “The campaign is starting to come to terms with that.” Campaign advisers, also speaking privately in order to speak plainly, confirmed this view.
Seeing she’s made this campaign about racism, I don’t look for her to do very well at all.
She made some serious mistakes on this campaign and now she is paying for it.
I hope Obama spanks her behind.

Egad.
Hate Springs Eternal by Paul Krugman (Via NYT)
In 1956 Adlai Stevenson, running against Dwight Eisenhower, tried to make the political style of his opponent’s vice president, a man by the name of Richard Nixon, an issue. The nation, he warned, was in danger of becoming “a land of slander and scare; the land of sly innuendo, the poison pen, the anonymous phone call and hustling, pushing, shoving; the land of smash and grab and anything to win. This is Nixonland.
You see the problem with writing articles like this. It gives the right what they want, Democrats fighting amongst one another. Which is quite childish.
This is, about as bad as, turning it into racism. Which is what some of Hillary’s surrogates did.
Now it seems, that it is the Blacks against the feminists, which again, is quite stupid. Sure, it makes for good blog fodder. But it does nothing to unify the party.
What it will do, is possibly turn the democrat convention in November into another 1968 convention, and really, we don’t need that at all.
If Hillary gets the nomination, she will be an open target. All the Republicans have to do, is to pull the "Peter F. Paul" card. They will play that for all it is worth. They will point out ALL of the facts regarding that situation and what they cannot prove, they will make up and distort. They will also use the MSM, to promote that from running taps, 24/7, to destroy her campaign.
If Obama gets it, unless he gets more specific on his Policies, they will hold that against him, they will use the closet Muslim rumor against him. They will use his lack of experience against him.
Either way, it’s going to be a hard, nasty, long battle to get the White House away from Republicans. Anyone that thinks that it’s going to be a cakewalk, has got a couple screws loose.

The Big News item today. Obama cleans up.
The inevitability factor is beginning to set in.
Hillary, I’m sure, will fight this all the way to the convention and her feminist friends will gripe a blue streak, when she looses the nomination.
How would I feel about a Black President?
Honestly? I have very mixed feelings about it.
I believe it will knock down some very old and well built walls of stereotypes down. I believe it will go quite a long ways of healing this Nation of some very old scars from mistakes made by our Nation’s forefathers.
On the other hand. I’m not too keen on Obama’s supposed far left Political leanings. After all, I am right of center, in case some of you forgot. 
Socialized Medicine, Entitlements, which will eventually bankrupt our Nation or at worst, continue our dependence on foreign currency. Which one day, will cause us some serious grief.
The thing I fear most, is that the Conservatives will be a retreat out of the House and Senate. Thus creating a total Liberal Congress. This combined with a Liberal White House, would be disastrous. I believe in checks and balances.
I believe that a Nation that leans in too much of a Political direction, without the balance of an opposing Political view. The idea here is, no one Political Ideology has all the answers. I am a big enough person to admit this.
What I do not quite understand is, why are some conservatives now taking the mentality of "We’re doomed, doomed!". I think if the Conservatives would stop trying to compare the Presidential candidates to Ronald Reagan and look at them for their own qualities. They might be able to capture more of the mainstream.
Just my opinion.

This video send chills up my spin. The Same chills I get, when I watch this video:
Yes, I did watch the debates last night. It did seem like they were less interesting in hurling digs at one another, and more interested in pointing out differences between one another.
They were also interested in pointing out differences between the Democrats and the Republicans, especially on matters of foreign policy. While I think that McCain would be a great President on matters of Morals, and Right to Life and the like, McCain’s Foreign Policy would be a disaster. 100 years in Iraq. You must be kidding.
McCain says he would reign on spending, Funny, didn’t another Republican President Candidate say that back in 2000?!?! 
Look what that got us! 
Hopefully super Tuesday will select us a nominee and we can get the business of getting a candidate for the White House.
So, says the Chicago Tribune.
And, of course, it’s Hillary’s fault. So, says the Blogging World.
How dumb.
"Black women are being raped daily in Darfur, Sudan, in the Congo and in Sub-Saharan Africa. That doesn’t make news," "One 18-year-old white girl from Alabama gets drunk on a graduation trip to Aruba, goes off and ‘gives it up’ while in a foreign country, and that stays in the news for months!", "Maybe I am missing something!" Rev. Jeremiah Wright
Read all about it, Right Here
I ask you now, Who is really the one making this election about race?
I hope this story catches on. This sort of thing is totally uncalled for.
I mean, I’m no racist, but this sort of thing is why there’s division among the races in this country.
Obama should either condemn these remarks or distance himself from this Church, once and for all.
Presidential Candidate Barack Obama has gotten an endorsement, from the daughter of one the most important political figures of our time.
Quote:
"OVER the years, I’ve been deeply moved by the people who’ve told me they wished they could feel inspired and hopeful about America the way people did when my father was president. This sense is even more profound today. That is why I am supporting a presidential candidate in the Democratic primaries, Barack Obama." – CAROLINE KENNEDY
It seems by reading the Blogs today, that some do not understand the great significance of such an endorsement. In the World of Politics getting a endorsement by the daughter of President John F. Kennedy, is basically like getting the endorsement from the head of the Roman Catholic Church.
This is just what Obama needed, a nod from the old guard, someone from the old school to say, "Yes, we approve". It’s a feather in his cap and he will be able to take that to the White House.
It’s going to be exciting race.
