Thinking About Bill
There are rumors that the New York Times is not going to renew Bill Kristol's contract. I just pray they're not true.
Okay, all the arguments have been made. And I am ready to declare a winner in the 2008 race. The Internet. Because this year, the laptop has replaced the television as the must-have election night device.
There are rumors that the New York Times is not going to renew Bill Kristol's contract. I just pray they're not true.
Though today is yet unknowable, let us for a moment imagine that when we wake tomorrow it will be a new day in America.
A vote for Obama will increase the velocity of the economy. Rich people will sell and buy assets like it's going out of style. This is good for everyone. And they'll pay taxes on the sales.
To make a long story short: Historically, gamblers have proven better election forecaster than polls. As an expert told me, the betting markets will be quickest to react to news coming through today.
Today America is going to produce the greatest civil rights demonstration in the history of the world.
The Middle East is divided between disbelief and excitement as well as apathy. Many can't believe that America will indeed elect a black man with African roots and a Muslim father as president.
Before you vote for John McCain I would like to have a small one sided non-argumentative conversation with you as a person who also cares whether this country continues to grow and flourish or not.
Obama has managed to prod optimism out of millions who felt run down, run over or simply ignored by a politics that took many of their children to war and too much out of their paychecks.
In the first local election held -- Dixville Notch, New Hampshire -- Barack Obama won over McCain 15-6. Obama is the first Dem to win that contest since 1968.
The goal of these videos was to shed light on the election in contested states. Now, like so many others who have worked their hearts out, we all call it a day and hope that change arrives tomorrow.
We might know who our next president is by 8:05 PM EST on Tuesday night. This has been such a long time coming for those of us who have been fighting the Bush administration for all of these years.
All over the U.S. people are voting, trying to vote and working to protect their vote. In 21st century America, this is no easy feat. When it comes to voting we are a banana republic with computers.
We watch millionaires and paid Republican hacks appear on television yelling "Socialist!" at Obama as if the Bolsheviks are coming to rape our daughters.
The Mormons' donations are well known. But little attention has been focused on two of the proposition's biggest individual donors.
In a couple of days, crowds of thousands will be gone, and McCain will have to face himself. As will the party. Until then, the rallies are their mutual escape.
Though Obama cannot solve all our problems, he is a reason not to throw in the towel and move to France. It is pretty clear right now that Obama supporters far outnumber McCain supporters.
If "Yes" should eke out a victory today, it is only a matter of a few years before this blot on the California constitution is repealed.
