Check this out; a Huffington Post has a story (above) that Bill Clinton "would not turn down " an official post in the Obama White House.

Oh Bill, Bill, Bill...
Will you never stop your egotistical ways? Don't you know that your wife is the Clinton Star and not you...

Bad Lieberman; go stand in the corner

Lieberman could be ousted from the chairmanship of the Homeland Security Committee, but only if the dems gain 4-5 more seats in the Senate, according to the Politico news story. (See above)

Why not make him Vice Chair? That would settle him down, as his BFF McCaine didn't give him the veep post on the Republican ticket.

Speaking of Denver...John Lee asked me last night "Did you cry?"

Yup, I did. And I think there were lots of other peoople in the stadium cried, as well. There were 80,000 of us. Someone had to cry!

Here are the two main feelings that I brought back from the DNC Convention-
The bridges between the racial divide were made stronger.
I looked around the audience full of people cheering, crying, hugging and saying "Amen!"

Anyone want to do this with me? Bake Sale

Tue, 10 Jun 2008 18:04:01 -0600

Dear MoveOn member,
Winning the White House is going to take a lot of dough. So on Saturday, June 21st and Sunday, June 22nd, we're organizing "Hungry for Change"—the largest bake sale in history—to fund a massive campaign to send Barack Obama to the Oval Office. Every extra cookie and brownie we sell means more organizers on the ground, more creative ads, and more Obama voters at the polls on Election Day. Can you help?

Evita!

Tue, 03 Jun 2008 21:24:22 -0600

Hillary Clinton continues to show the world her true persona: Evita Peron.

Eva Person, the first wife of Argentina's dictator-President; Juan Peron,fought publicly for the popularity of her misused and unheard masses. Evita is viewed historically as a manipulative, egotistical woman, who helped to decimate the wealth and standing of her country.

Through a planned campaign she abused her power to be seen as bountiful and charitable while in fact she helped to rob the country financially, and destroy her enemies.

To the State Party; Unity can be ours...

It has been one and a half weeks since the State Democratic Convention.

Most of the hurt feelings and confusion about the “line out” process and election results have become less painful, with most people moving towards working for specific local and national candidates.

I read a letter to the editor in the Salt Lake Tribune a few days ago. It was written by a 19 year old man who had driven up to the State Convention in Salt Lake City, to participate in his own bid for National Delegate, and to participate in the State Convention itself. He was discouraged on many levels. He voiced some of the feelings that I am sure other participants felt after the State Convention was over.

From the beginning, Hillary Clinton has campaigned as if the Democratic nomination were hers by divine right. That's why she is falling short -- and that's why she should be persuaded to quit now, rather than later, before her majestic sense of entitlement splits the party along racial lines.

Southern Dem warns party to avert disaster
Jonathan Martin, Mike Allen
Wed Mar 26, 5:50 AM ET

Democrats are increasingly nervous about their party’s protracted nomination fight, and some prominent figures are publicly warning that the party needs to act fast to avoid disaster.

Chief among these voices is Phil Bredesen, the two-term governor of Tennessee who is uncommitted to either Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) or Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.).

In an interview this week with Politico, Bredesen said flatly that if the contentious slog continues until the Democrats’ late-August convention in Denver, the party would have a vastly diminished chance of recapturing the White House. [...]

Bredesen also joined House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) in warning that superdelegates should not overturn the outcome from primaries and caucuses.

If Obama were denied the nomination by Democratic insiders after winning the party’s popular vote, Bredesen said, “There would be hell to pay in the party for a long time to come.”
