Ocharma, Billary...
brought to you by the Mainstream Media.
Howdya like it?
I don't.
I refuse to allow corporate, media whores to decide who I'll vote for.
That's only ONE of many reasons I proudly cast my vote for John Edwards today.

As did I.
This nation is on her knees,..destroyed by this Administration, and Corporate America. Her tears have but just begun to flow,.. should Obama Hillery, or ANY Republican take office.
Hillary AND Obama are Republicans but most are too stupid to even notice.
Hey Mary: Meet my blog persona, KELSO!
Like you I was a Kucinich supporter. Unlike you, I didn't care for Edwards. You are absolutely right that HRC and Obama are Republicans, but HRC is a female Eisenhower and Obama is a dumber Volstead. I'm for Clinton. That doesn't make me a bad person with you, I'm sure. Apparently, that's not an accepted point of view on Nova-M.
What I do with my vote as you know is all irrelevant. I'll not be a USA citizen much longer. I haven't been a resident for a while.
I'm probably going to pick up this particular point on my blog tonight or tomorrow but George Packer in the NEW YORKER refers to Obama as some sort of "RFK" figure. I think the comparison is apt in the sense that RFK was a sadistic right-wing son of a bitch as an aide to McCarthy during the HUAC hearing and as Attorney General during the JFK administration.
Johnson's attorney general, Ramsey Clark, was a professional who was about 2/3 Kucinich and 1/3 Clinton.
I'm sorry RFK got assassinated and all and he would have been way better than Nixon was, but he, like Obama, was no one to be reassured by, believe.
Your friend,

I have been a strong John Edwards supporter since 2004. But, sadly, he is gone from our political choices, at least, in 2008.
Between Obama and Hillary, I find Hillary a much stronger, realistic candidate for our country.
Below is an excerpt from Jake Tapper, ABCNews, which reflects my worries about the Democratic contest:

UPDATE: Let me be clear: I'm not saying there shouldn't be enthusiasm in politics. I'm merely touching on the fact that some Obama supporters' exhuberance seems to be getting a little out of hand. Obama himself joked about this at a Hollywood fundraiser, as noted in Men's Vogue:
“When Morgan Freeman comes over to greet Obama, the senator begins bowing down both hands in worship. ‘This guy was president before I was,’ says Obama, referring to Freeman's turn in Deep Impact and, clearly, getting a little ahead of his own bio. Next, a nod to Bruce Almighty: ‘This guy was God before I was.’”
