Whats new?

Erica Jong is so radical! Supporting Hillary? What a strong feminist position to take! No one embodies the feminist values of warmongering quite like Hillary.

According to the first article, Obama could be more appealing to Republicans if he was a Republican. Amazing insight.

His father was a black man and his mother was a white woman, I think he understands dealing with difficult situations. Most likely he has dealt with a few in his life.

wtf a pig just flew past my basement apartment, KO going to have a diffacult time on his worst persons with turd blossom and billO sharing time on Faux.

That article about Obama not being able to hack it is more of the same. I get the point about not being able to institute universal healthcare without going back on his word, but the author ignores two important social points on that matter.

1) Americans aren't as naive as most would have you believe. They understand that there is a need to break a few ideological eggs to make a campaign promise omelette. People will be happy if he delivers and largely ignore the process that made it happen. It's easy to forget not EVERYONE follows the political process as closely ass we here in the blogosphere do.

2) Obama has been deified to the point that the general grumblings of a few Villagers will not slow down his shooting star. I'm no blind fan of the man, but I think that his optimism is such a rare thing in the politics circle, it will work for him when the noise machine goes after him. And really what do they have that holds any water? If they had something, they would have tested it by now. What did they try to float previously? Smoking Obama, Swimsuit Obama, and (the spectacularly failed) Muslim Obama. Then they got bored with being proven wrong and turned full attention on Hillary. Why? (and this is where the author got it completely wrong) Because they have YEARS of dirt on Hillary. They can bash Hillary in their sleep. Frankly, to me it seems Clinton is the one with the Noise Machine problem. But you'd have to step back and look at the bigger picture to get that, something the author has regretfully failed to do.

Glad to see Cenk over at The Young
Turks getting notice! I don't understand why more progressive types aren't supporting their daily webcast and commentary during special events - tomorrow's Super Tuesday coverage holds the promise of a little more off the cuff commentary than the Networks will provide. Guests the MSM ignore and straight from the hip talk. What's not to like?

Ain't no weak sauce here!

Wait, David Broder's implied there are no differences between the Republicans and the Democrats - unless it's in the Republicans' favor! Surely he can't be wrong! ;-)
