  • The 'Numbers guy'

    That would be Carl Bialik, who examines the way numbers are used and abused in a blog at the Wall Street Journal, crunches the numbers post-Pennsylvania. He does not in this post reach a earth-shattering conclusion different from conventional wisdom but it’s still an enjoyable read, especially when you consider he’s dealing in numbers. The…

  • 'All by Myself'

When I was young I never needed anyone And makin love was just for fun Those days are gone Livin alone I think of all the friends I’ve known But when…

  • Vintage New York Times

    Check out this story from The New York Times, circa 1916, about legendary Suffragette icon and former Rep. Jeannette Rankin, R-Mont., the first woman ever elected to Congress. On the other hand, the language is not nearly as shocking as you find in the paper’s coverage of race. Love0 Share Tweet Share Pin

  • A headache . . .

    . . . is what I got after reading this convoluted article by Professor Akhil Reed Amar on how Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, (D-NY), and Sen.

  • John "There will be other wars" Mccain

    Master Sgt. Andy Dunaway/U.S. Air Force, via Associated Press. Senator John McCain at Baghdad’s airport on Sunday. The presidential candidate arrived in Iraq for meetings with Iraqi and American officials. This should be an impossibility but slowly but surely you can see the swagger returning to Republicans. They can sense that victory is now more…

  • What must be said

    Transcript of Keith Olbermann’s March 12 “Special Comment” on Hillary Clinton’ s tactics against Barack Obama. Finally, as promised, a special comment on the presidential campaign of the junior senator from New York. By way of necessary preface, President and Senator Clinton and the senator’s mother and the senator’s brother were of immeasurable support to…

  • Pelosi speaks

    And what she has to say would not cheer Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, (D-NY). Asked about the possibility of the so-called “Dream Ticket” of Clinton sharing the ticket with Sen. Barack Obama, (D-IL) in the fall, Pelosi said: I think that the Clinton administration has fairly ruled that out by proclaiming that Senator McCain would…

  • A true nation

    I am losing hope. For us as a country, whether we could ever truly become a nation. Will we always remain divided? I know what the lure of history holds for Sen. Hillary Clinton, (D-NY). At one time I wanted it for her, too, that she becomes the first female president of the United States.…
