Remember all the “fun”, we had this year, wondering, wondering? Just in case you forgot, the City Edition has a great synopsis on many things labeled Obama: (more…)

“No enterprise is more likely to succeed than one concealed from the enemy until it is ripe for execution.”

– MACHIAVELLI

 2004 was a tragic year, for it was the year that the DNC Civil War started. Having been in the wilderness for years, the bridgehead was not reached, and ashen despair marked the brow of the Liberals. It was the year that the Liberals followed the Muse over to the dark side. Rather than fight Machiavelli, they added him to their email list. Rather than fight the Republicans, they decided to dump the whole shebang and throw everyone under the bus. In a effort to prevent the final death, they let the Great Bat in at night. (more…)

Although I had a dental appointment and missed it, it appears from Hillary’s website that a fine light, but strictly scripted web chat was had. Any public chat is not going to produce the words that most PUMAs would love to hear. We can’t know the details or what is really going on in “negotiations” in preparation for the Convention.

Those Darn Nit Pickers

The mind wobbles at this soap opera. Imagine for a moment that the story about Senator Obama’s Citizenship raises enough cry that the general media does take it up.

What happens next? (more…)

Sometimes Things Turn Out Unexpectedly

“Fancy rules over two thirds of the universe, the past and future, while reality is confined to the present.”

Jean Paul Richter

 In the late seventies, due to economic changes and events in my family, we found ourselves in a small town in Eastern Washington, where my husband had obtained a job. It was a fragile time. I had left college again as a consequence of this necessary move, just as I had nine months prior, left work in order to go to back to school. Our daughters had left their friends and community roots. My husband, after working as an urban planner, took a job as laborer’s foreman at a nuclear power plant. (more…)

This honorary role.

This keynote address. 

She will do it, and we will watch. We will understand that  as she speaks, she brings honor to herself, and she will attempt to heal the schism, because she must. To task her with this epic struggle can only be because, Obama and the DNC cannot touch this mess. 

News often is by timing and degree. Only a bit ago, a wave rose up, they will see it directed. They want her now to corral her own delegates and those others who agreed. How many now have signed their name? Only three hundred are needed. Pen in hand and honorary swirl will  place her in nomination. 

They want to shame her yet again, as though it is her mess. The DNC knows it’s not. The mess must be scrubbed, and the schism healed, or the party completely broken. Closing off each avenue will only increase wave pressure.

Clinton for vice president boosters–“Vote Both”–fold shop, realizing Obama tapping Clinton.

The “Vote Both” drive–staffed by loyal former Clinton staffers–folds, realizing that booking Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) to be a keynote speaker at the Democratic convention means she is not on the list to be Obama’s running mate.

The latest counter offer from Denver, relative to the placement of anticipated protesters  at(?) the DNC Convention, is presented. The ACLU says they don’t have enough information to comment. 

I’m telling you, 200 feet away from the delegates, or is it to be 400 feet away? 

Protesters, with bullhorns. 

Caged behind cyclone fencing. 

This is bound to be a heck of a scary sight for those poor nervous delegates- better push it back another 100 feet just to be sure we don’t stampede them!

I wonder what the occupancy limit, for 53,000 square feet of “protest” set aside area, is?  Can we equal Invesco?
