Negative Ads Work. We Have Work To Do.
Tue Aug 19, 2008 at 08:02:50 PM PDT
Democrats are hand wringers, we are.
Many want to win so bad that every tick, tip; view of a poll gets everyone going.
Me, I don't care about the horserace, which is for the cable desk clerks.
I care about the state polling, which is still soft now, and the ground game.
This is what won Obama the Democratic Nomination, it will bolster him across the final line, but we cannot continue to have these negative ads go unanswered or unchallenged.

Obama Campaign: Get off vacation mode and get back in the saddle.
Sat Aug 16, 2008 at 07:31:50 PM PDT
Yes. I watched the Rick Warren Forum and a few thoughts.
Obama looked rested, glad for that. He needed a vacation to refuel his mind, body and soul. Glad. Now, let's get busy.
Two things happened tonight and everyone know that I am a Barack Obama supporter, but a realist, none the less.
McCain has learned how to manipulate answers and Obama need to burnish his answers, decisively.

Media Stop Using "Exotic" as a code word for "Not American Enough"
Mon Aug 11, 2008 at 09:47:05 AM PDT
I blasted Cokie Roberts in yesterday's weekly, "This Week With Barack Obama" because she deserved it.
She put that red-herring, smoking gun word usage out that Obama is vacationing in some "exotic" place, called Hawaii and that he needs to go to Myrtle Beach, which implies "more American".
I have held my tongue on the media using this word exotic, coding for "Obama is not American" enough, but not anymore.

America, A Question: What Do You Want?

OK.
I had a home emergency and our able, reliable central air decided to demise. To join the "air conditioning sky".
Yes, we tried everything, but to no avail had to replace the unit.
So, the icebergslim household have been hot as hell, dog not happy, staying in the lower level with the fan blasting, until our replacement unit arrived today.
Damn, wish I was back in the UP in Michigan...anyway, now I got to pause and read what the McCain Camp has hoped and wished for.
Obama plays the race card. Jump, please.

Obama and Supporters/Advocates, "Don't Sit On Your Laurels...."
Tue Jul 29, 2008 at 07:16:26 AM PDT
I am confident in the abilities of Barack Obama.
I know that he intends to run an issue based campaign, one that many Americans are not used to. I know that he will stand and let the public know his viewpoint, how he feels about the issues and if he differs, that is ok. We all don't agree.
But, and I mean but, for John McCain going negative, early, don't sit on your laurels.
