      Obama's Race Speech: Did He Win Over White Swing-Voters? on The Huffington Post

      Posted by Jeff from Huffington Post

      Barack Obama's Tuesday speech directly addressing the controversy over his former pastor Jeremiah Wright -- and addressing as well broader issues of race and politics -- was, by all accounts, a major success. The Illinois senator forced to the surface controversies that have plagued Democrats for decades, creating an opening for the party to promote its agenda with less danger of stumbling over wedge issues.

      Obama wins Mississippi; focus now on Pa.

      Posted by Jeff from MSNBC

      The Illinois senator had 1,596 delegates to 1,484 for Clinton. It takes 2,025 to win the nomination. With neither appearing able to win enough delegates through primaries and caucuses to claim the nomination, the importance of nearly 800 elected officials and party leaders who will attend the national convention as unelected superdelegates is increasing.

    • God-talk in the presidential election (or why evangelicals are voting for Barack)

      Posted by udamnskippy from Scholarsandrogues

      Evangelicals are not fundamentalists; many would resist the idea that they want to impose their worldviews on others. Many are now struggling to figure out how to live in a religiously and culturally plural culture, and Obama’s message not only resonates with their sense of integrity, but it also appeals to their desire to find ways to live together less divisively. I don’t think Barack has a prayer with the fundamentalists. But I think he’s definitely striking a chord among evangelicals.

      Some polls show that Clinton loses Ohio. In Ohio, Zogby shows even 45% between the two Democrats. A new poll executed for the Cleveland Plain Dealer by Mason-Dixon Polling and Research of Washington finds Clinton ahead.

    Official: Richardson to be commerce secretary

    I like Richardson and believe he has a meaningful place in this administration, but Commerce Secretary? What's the expertise? Do you agree? And if so, where do you think Richardson is better suited?

    Janet Napolitano, Homeland Security Secretary?

    if her decades of failing to secure the Mexico-AZ border are any indication, then she should do a real bang-up job securing the whole country

    Obama advisers: Bush era war criminals will walk

    I think it’s time to say no to this. If we supported Obama to bring about change, then we have to insist that’s what he delivers

    Obama's Transparent Presidency: Weekly YouTube Addresses

    Obama will cause more of a recession. He wants to implement all kinds of programs. The money has to come from somewhere. We already know he is going to raise taxes on the very companies that provide jobs to the people. In order for those companies to afford the increase, prices will go up. People will buy less. Employees will get laid off. Welfare will be at an all time high. With the US Gov handing out checks, there will be a larger influx of immigrants (legal and illegal) which will put even more strain. McCain would NOT raise those taxes and would create incentives to stimulate job growth which would obviously get the economy going. Can it be explained any more simple?

    The only fear I have is an economical fear. A total collapse of the world economy. I have absolutely no fear of any country’s military aggression. I do have a fear thatourr country is going into a severe recession or depression. The mismangement of our economy and our getting off the gold standard will be the cause of it. It will not only cause a severe reciession in the US but the world as well. It has already started… I am totally out of equities and are in all cash positions. Others would be wise to do the same. As far as Obama is concerned, he will will do a better job the anyone else who could have been selected.
