  • This Is Just Plain Dumb

    At a Clinton rally in Waco, TX, Wesley Clark inferred that because Hillary happened to be in the White House while important decisions were being made, she is prepared to be President. I guess that means that every staffer and visitor that has ever happened to be in the White House while an important decision was made is now completely prepared to lead the country. Man, I better get over to the White House for a visit so I can start a very promising political career.

    Wait a minute . . . what are the chances that Dubya would actually be doing anything important during my visit? Maybe this brilliant plan is doomed.

    Probst for President 2016!

  • One Million and Counting

    I was one of the first million people that donated to the Obama campaign. How about you? I can’t wait to get my t-shirt so I can wear it down in good ol’ super-conservative God’s Country – I mean South County. I wonder if I’ll get the same looks I get when I wear my Cubs hat around here. Can’t wait!

  • Wait, Is That A Phone Ringing?

    By now, I’m sure many of you have seen the new ad from the Clinton campaign spreading fear across the country by showing sleeping children with the phone ringing in the background saying that Clinton is the only one that can save your children from the terrible ringing phone.

    But who’s really going to pick up the phone? Well, my man Barack Obama of course.

    Check out the Obama campaign’s response. I think Barack wins this argument hands down.

  • Barack ‘n’ Roll!

    Last night’s primaries in Wisconsin and Hawaii were Barack Obama’s 9th and 10th victories in a row. I don’t know about you, but that’s one heck of a winning streak if you ask me. Barack is certainly on a roll, and his message of hope and change seems to be reaching people. What’s funny to me is that the Clinton campaign is pretty much ignoring that any of these victories (or losses in her case) have even occurred. The people are speaking very clearly now, and they’re saying that they want someone that will inspire us to all do and be better than we are today, and that’s what I call a great leader.

    Tomorrow’s debate from Texas should be quite telling. Will it be the love fest that we saw in the last debate? I highly doubt it. Hillary will go after Barack with everything she’s got, and she will look like a desperate fool in front of the enter country (and world). I still hold out hope that it will be a debate of ideas, but I fear that it will turn personal and very ugly. I’m sure we’ll all be watching to see what happens.

    Barack ‘n’ Roll, baby!

  • He’s A Hope Monger

    With each new speech, he gives me another reason to support him.

  • Today’s The Big Day

    Well folks, today is voting day for people in twenty-four states including Illinois, Missouri, and California. No matter who you support in this primary election, please get out there and vote to make your voice heard.

    If you’re still undecided, check out Barack Obama’s website to learn where he stands on the big issues facing our country. I think you may find yourself checking his name on your ballot if you take the time to get to know him.

  • Change in Plans

    Well, sometimes life throws a wrench in the best laid plans. Both of our kids got sick yesterday and did not improve enough today to go to the Barack Obama rally. My wife did go tonight with a friend, and I’m going to ask her to post her thoughts about the experience. She has called a couple times, and it sounds like a rock concert. She says there are 20,000 people at the Edward Jones Dome. I have to admit that I wish I was there, but hopefully, I’ll have another chance during the general election.

    For all of you in Super Tuesday states, get out there and vote on Tuesday. This election is so important, and you want to make sure your candidate of choice has the best chance to make it to the general election. For me, that candidate is Barack Obama.
