The CD-2 Online Debate

We have a multitude of in-person debates where the candidates all stand up on a stage and answer questions, one at a time. We have a multitude of questionnaires where the candidates all answer questions submitted to them. But never before have we had an on-line debate. The advantages of an in-person debate is it […]

This is what is wrong with our foreign policy…and our economic policy….

both of which cause unfathomable misery, death and destruction. It’s very un-Christian! This from the two-time Medal of Honor winner Major General Smedley Butler, USMC: War is just a racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside group […]

COLUMN: Was Ross Perot Right?

Was Ross Perot right about the North American Free Trade Agreement and its effects on workers and immigration? That is the subject of my newest nationally syndicated newspaper column out this past Friday. This is a key question in the wake of Hillary Clinton trying to laugh off the topic at the last presidential debate […]

Was Ross Perot Right abouy NAFTA?

Note sure this got posted. During the Dem debate in Las Vegas, Wolf Blitzer asked Hillary whether Ross Perot was right about NAFTA. She just laughed and said all she recalled were the charts and had only a vague recollection of NAFTA. Well, was Ross Perot right? The text below appeared in David Sirota’s column […]

Jared in Iraq

For those that missed it (and apparently a lot of you did), Jared Polis is in Iraq. I have been writing this post over the last several days because I see so many facets to it and I wanted to hit them all. 1) Lets start with what Jared learns from this trip. He clearly […]

Giving back for Thanksgiving!

Electability

With less than two months to go till the primaries, many voters are tuning in to the political show and are questioning Senator Clinton’s inevitability.

Giuliani Supports Collective Bargaining!

During a stop in California Tuesday, Republican Presidential Candidate Rudy Giuliani was asked his opinion on the Writers Guild of America strike. I settled several difficult labor disputes when I was the mayor and the best way I did it was to not have much of an opinion on it and not get too involved […]

A Blogspot Book

After our twin boys were born in Boston, my husband and I moved back to Tampa, primarily so I could stay home with my children. And also so my mother could provide free babysitting every weekend. For the rest of her life. Ten minutes into my new gig, I realized the key to emotional happiness […]

Obama gets Rocky Mountain High!

Barack Obama’s Colorado Campaign Coordinator sat down with Colorado Confidential for a Q&A. Here are some excerpts from that interview. Why Colorado? For a few reasons. One, the whole Rocky Mountains is emerging in political importance, and especially trending blue. I think Sen. Obama’s message is resonating with those independent voters in the Southwest and […]

The Fierce Urgency of Now!

From MSNBC Nearly one in three people at last night’s Jefferson-Jackson Dinner was an Obama supporter. The campaign brought 3,000 supporters to a dinner that had 9,000 attendees. They also made sure to have a representative from each of Iowa’s 99 counties in attendance.  When asked if all of the Obama supporters attending the event […]

A Liberal’s Dilemma

Every Veteran’s Day, my family and I thank the men and women in our lives who’ve served this country. We call or visit, expressing gratitude for what they’ve given all of us. Our first Veteran’s Day in The Springs, we now have another option to add to our annual tradition. This Saturday, beginning at 10am, […]

As the Pueblo Chieftain reports: Both Sen. Ken Salazar and Rep. Mark Udall intend to press ahead with getting Congress to adopt the recommendations of the bipartisan Iraq Study Group as the best way to withdraw U.S. soldiers from the fighting there – despite recent casualty reports showing that violence against American troops has dropped […]

If I ran the zoo

Miss Ive asked us to put up or shut up (she said it much nicer than that) and asked what we would do if we were running the Republican party. So here is what I would do. Tell everyone to vote Democratic. No wait – just kidding. Ok, serious answer below the fold. 1) Pull […]

“A noun and a verb and 9/11.”

MSNBC Tells Gravel to Go Jump in a Lake

Former Alaska Sen. Mike Gravel and his supporters were furious that he was not included in last night’s Democratic Presidential debate. In response, Gravel held his own online debate (no link yet available to that). Gravel is perhaps best known for his bizarre rock in the lake video, which we discussed here last month. With […]

The website Politico has an interesting look at which online forms of communication work best for Presidential candidates: To get some small read on that online activity, Compete.com, a company founded in 2000 that measures and analyzes Web traffic, studied the habits of hundreds of thousands of online political readers. The nonpartisan, for-profit company uses […]
