New York Times April 16, 2008 By JEFF ZELENY The battle between Senators Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama over whether Mr. Obama belittled voters in small towns appears to have hardened the views of both candidates’ supporters and stirred anxiety among many Democrats about the party’s prospects in the fall.

That’s Broomfield Councilman Dennis McClosky giving the thumbs up at the Eco-Cycle ‘Hard to Recycle Round-Up’.

Right now we are […]
It’s Obama, stupid: Carter and Gore to end Clinton bid DEMOCRAT grandees Jimmy Carter and Al Gore are being lined-up to deliver the coup de grâce to Hillary Clinton and end her campaign to become president. Falling poll numbers and a string of high-profile blunders have convinced party elders that she must now bow out […]
And the bad news keeps on coming for Bob. What’s amazing is there is no real damage control coming from the Schaffer campaign. Their whole approach seems to be refuse to talk about it and it’ll go away. That approach worked so well for Allen’s “Macaca moment” that I can see why Dick Wadhams is […]

UPDATE: The Rocky Mountain News reports after the jump. Most of you have seen the new 527 ad released in support of Senate candidate Bob Schaffer, a nicely produced feel-good spot called “Thanks, Bob.” Well, the liberals at Progress Now found some other people who wanted to “Thank Bob” for the cameras too. The result? […]
