The big story in Iowa today is the Clinton attacks against that nice Barack Obama. No fewer than six editorials can be found today decrying the attacks, and not one friendly. Hillary has lost the media, for whom she was darling for so long. What happened of course was that the polls have caught up... Sign in to see full entry.

Monday, December 3, 2007
Several points to consider before Iowa on January 3. 1. Rudy Giuliani has a national lead with what they are calling. "firewall" states, like Florida and California where he leads by thirty points, that no other candidate in his party can match. 2. Mitt Romney had purchased face/name recognition in...

"You Don't Have Relationships, You Take Hostages"
Realclearpolitics.com averages show Mr. Obama less than a percentage point ahead of Hillary in Iowa. But the average takes polling data from November 2. There has been a nine-point drop in the Clinton lead nationwide. This shift is credited to the second two weeks of November. Now, if this trend is... Sign in to see full entry.

CD: "Losing Iowa Won't Hurt Her"
Poll: Clinton's lead shrinks in New Hampshire This was Tuesday's headline on the CNN ticker. There is exactly two months until the New Hammpshire Primary. Is that enough time for the veneer to come off the Clinton Make-up Machine? Or, as one Blogit! Pundit has stated -- ok it was Corbin Dallas --... Sign in to see full entry.

Hillary Slides in Iowa
According to an ABC Poll, Barack Obama benefits from an increase in voters looking for fresh ideas over experience and strength. The new poll of likely caucus voters holds 30% for Obama and 26% for Mrs. Clinton. Should this trend continue for the next six weeks, Obama will go to New Hampshire with a...

What Is Needed Is a Lesson in Clear Thinking...
A pretty amazing thing hapoened today on FOX News Sunday. After making the point that none of the Democrats in the debates were admitting to the reality on the ground in Iraq, Brit Hume was interrupted by Juan Williams, Yellow Dog Democrat Extraordinaire. Brit was saying that the candidates at the... Sign in to see full entry.

The Post Debate Top Ten List...
I think we can objectively deduce the following vis-a-vis the presidential campaign to date: 1. The Dems aren't going to be able to stop Hillary. 2. Jonathan Edwards is a fool and a coward. A fool for making the same mistake Bob Dole made meatballing four credible and scandalous charges at once. The... Sign in to see full entry.

The Knock-Out Punch in Tonight's Clash of the Titans in Vegas...
Ihave just read the best one-liner to be used tonight on Hillary. It's a gloves-off knock-out punch ascribed to Rutgers Political Science professor Ross K. Baker: "One absolutely devastating accusation that could resonate is that she is gullible --she bought into two false story lines, one from her... Sign in to see full entry.

Week Three and It's Officially a Media Frenzy
But who is keeping the water churning? 1. Supposed stumble at the debate caused by Hillary's refusal to support, or say that she doesn't support the New York Governor's plan to give drivers' licenses to illegal immigrants. 2. Immediate firing back at the boys piling on, as if a speech at Wellesly... Sign in to see full entry.

A Conversation About Barack Obama...
I confess that in my secret life I have hated Tim Russert. I found him time and again leaning left and unfairly implying with his eyebrows that the GOP was like the mafia. But after the performance of his career a week ago at the Philadelphia debate, I gave him another look. I watched "Press the... Sign in to see full entry.
