    Heavily edited and x-posted from my blog Tonight was a big win for Obama. Yeah, I'm bummed that he didn't win CA, but not surprised. As I'll keep repeating, the voters of CA are incredible morons and supremely moderate. They never want to try something new. Uninformed stick-in-the-muds is my "polite company" term for the majority of our voters.  Read more >

    Indulge me a bit in posting on "old news", but there's a discusion going on in the blogosphere about the Senator, with the basis in feminism. On BooMan Tribune, Arthur Gilroy has decided that women, particularly left-leaning, blogging women, hate Clinton because:  Read more >

    I know dog whistle politics. We've watched the GOP hone it to a science, that's no longer a "dog whistle", but rather an air raid siren when they use their code words to signal the religious right, racists and money people. We know this.  Read more >

    Well, Sen. Obama locked up endorsements from the local NV chapters of Culinary Union Workers and the SEIU. That's certainly good for the Senator, but I am scratching my head as to why these labor organizations did not back Edwards. Edwards, who has been running for president since '04, has been fine tuning his campaign to position himself as a champion of labor. Obama...I don't know what he'll do for labor, specifically.  Read more >

    Aw...I feel so bad for this person. I've always had a soft spot for people who look like they're being left out. I always try to find ways to include people. Probably because of my own being different that I do it. Growing up, I never had female friends. In school, it was because I was Muslim. At the mosque, it was because I was black. It also didn't help that I was younger than most people in my classes. Somehow, it never really affected me. I never has an urge to belong with my peers or coworkers.  Read more >
