Some of the dimmer lights in the blogosphere aren’t quite understanding the concept of oversampling for subgroups as NBC/WSJ did for the African-American sample in their latest poll. It’s fairly simple. There is a general sample of 700 respondents with 11% African-American and 75% White respondents. Looking at their subsamples, there are 520 white respondents […]

This blog is older than the Iraq War so, unfortunately for me, if you go back to that time I was in favor of this godforsaken war. I really have no excuses. The only one I ever tried after figuring out how stupid I was really that dumb, was that I figured even the Bush […]

It hurts you too: As expected, one of the two major Democratic candidates saw a downturn in the latest NBC/WSJ poll, but it’s not the candidate that you think. Hillary Clinton is sporting the lowest personal ratings of the campaign. Moreover, her 37 percent positive rating is the lowest the NBC/WSJ poll has recorded since […]

What’s stunning to me is that as many of us have spent time trying to point out that a big portion of the right wing noise machine is not credible and shouldn’t set the agenda after watching the Clinton’s get cut up by it for 8 years, Clinton is now embracing those sources as reasonable […]

Martin Marty on Wright: In the early 1960s, at a time when many young people were being radicalized by the Vietnam War, Wright left college and volunteered to join the United States Marine Corps. After three years as a marine, he chose to serve three more as a naval medical technician, during which time he […]

Hillaryis44 compares Reverend Wright to Tawana Brawley. That’s special. According to Taylor Marsh, it’s horrible to talk about lynching on Easter. Because a day that celebrates the resurrection of Christ who was put to death by bleeding him to death with the giant stakes driven through his hands and feet is a day that shouldn’t […]

It should be now with the Clinton Campaign fundraisers threatening Nancy Pelosi that they will withhold donations to the DCCC if she doesn’t change her view on the SuperDelegates. It’s not theoretical whether the Clintons will burn down the party if Clinton doesn’t get the nomination, her supporters just said they would destroy the party […]

Please remember that no one has ever gone broke by underestimating the American Public That’s not enough, madam, we need a majority! Response to a woman who called out to him: “Senator, you have the vote of every thinking person!” during his 1956 campaign, as quoted in Anatomy of the Cuban Missile Crisis (2001) by […]

NRCC hits him and rightfully so. Hurckes, a man of no small ego, is not merely Dan Lipinski’s chief of staff, earning $107,224. Nor also just a paid consultant to Bill Lipinski’s dubious foundation, the All American Eagles, which brags about helping kids but mostly helps fund friendly candidates. Hurckes also is a trustee of […]

Greenberg keeps up the attack on Bean. Let me be clear here. I disagree with Bean on policy towards Serbia. However, her views aren’t anti-American. So, Bean has natural reasons to support the Serbian position and receive money from Serbian Americans. Swami takes no side for now on the ancient, underlying dispute, but he […]

Rod Blagojevich. So what do they appear to be ready to do? Nominate a guy in the 11th who has given Rod $23,000. The entire rap on Halvorson is that she is close to Emil Jones and thus Blagojevich. By choosing this clown (who also has some issues with minority contracting fraud), that entire […]
