Franken Called Limbaugh a Big Fat Idiot, But Just Who Was the Idiot in Limbaugh's Latest Con?

Earl Ofari Hutchinson | Posted May 8, 2008 | Politics


Earl Ofari Hutchinson

Anybody who believes Rush Limbaugh's idiotic gas bag boast that he tilted elections in Texas, Ohio, Pennsylvania and now Indiana to Hillary Clinton deserves the word that Al Franken used a few years ago in the title to his best selling book to describe Limbaugh.

Limbaugh's Operation Chaos is the...

Clinton: Not Exactly The Great White Hope

Paul Jenkins | Posted April 26, 2008 | Politics


Paul Jenkins

Were Hillary Clinton the great rural white savior that her campaign is depicting, she would have had this thing wrapped up in, say, Iowa, or a couple of weeks after that. Her inability to dispatch a presidential neophyte such as Barack Obama in a Democratic primary is precisely because, after...

Throw Out the Rove-era Election Map For November

Daniel Nichanian | Posted April 10, 2008 | Off The Bus


Daniel Nichanian

An Obama-McCain general election match-up would ensure that the electoral map we are accustomed to changes; both candidates appeal to states traditionally abandoned by their respective parties, but they are also both dangerously weak among groups previous nominees have carried more easily. Clinton could also transform the map, as she...

Eminent Domain

Steven Denlinger | Posted March 29, 2008 |


Steven Denlinger

WHEN I WAS FIVE years old, I desperately wanted to learn how to read.

Part of this need was due to the house in which my family lived - an ancient lath-and-plaster construction my parents obtained when the State of Ohio declared eminent domain over a portion of land...

Limbaugh's Lying Voters Under Investigation

Ari Melber | Posted March 25, 2008 | Politics


Ari Melber

"Operation Chaos," Rush Limbaugh's campaign urging Republicans to vote for Hillary Clinton in Democratic primaries, has been very effective. It doubled Republican turnout in Ohio and Texas, boosting Clinton and prolonging the Democratic race. But in Ohio, it was also almost certainly illegal.

Ohio law requires that citizens genuinely...

The Day Hillary Clinton Knew She Had Lost

Paul Jenkins | Posted March 21, 2008 | Politics


Paul Jenkins

Earlier this week, Hillary Clinton was back in Michigan, a full two months after its "primary," pleading with the state legislature to allow a revote in the state. As she stood in downtown Detroit, it was becoming increasingly clear that there would be no do-over and she looked for the...

America's Twisted Marriage of Religion and Politics

Paul Jenkins | Posted March 19, 2008 | Politics


Paul Jenkins

Barack Obama's church-related quandary is just the latest example of American politicians' perilous dance with religion. In a presidential campaign infused like never before with the candidates' efforts to sell their religious beliefs as best-fitting an illusory mainstream, Obama hasn't quite pulled it off, although he is in a far...

Dear John: It's Now Time to Endorse Hillary

An Open Letter to Senator John Edwards
from Will Bower

Dear Senator Edwards,

I am not writing to you that I might sing the praises of one candidate or condemn the actions of another. You already know the faults and merits of Senator Clinton and Senator Obama more intimately...

Sacrament of Fear

Steven Denlinger

The novella 'Coming to Los Angeles: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love This City' concludes this week as a serial.

THURSDAY MORNING I AWOKE at 4 A.M. I lay there for a minute in the dark. Something felt off, and I couldn't sleep. Fear had reached into my...

Hillary's Inconvenient Truth

Dylan Loewe | Posted March 11, 2008 | Politics


Dylan Loewe

With recent rumblings of the possibility of a revote in Florida and Michigan, Hillary supporters are starting to sense the beginnings of a Clinton comeback. But there is little evidence that new votes in Florida and Michigan will be valuable enough to put Clinton back on a trajectory that leads...

The Case for Obama's Readiness

Dylan Loewe | Posted March 10, 2008 | Politics


Dylan Loewe

Hillary Clinton's success in Texas and Ohio suggest that questioning Barack Obama's readiness to lead may be a tactic that can resonate with voters. Though exit polling data from Wisconsin and other recent state primaries had suggested that voters saw Obama and Clinton as equally capable to be commander in...

Clinton's General Election Disaster in the Making

Paul Jenkins | Posted March 9, 2008 | Politics


Paul Jenkins

Of the many strange spins the Clinton campaign has sold the media, few are as troubling as the idea that she is the stronger general election candidate: pretty much all polling, sound judgment and anecdotal evidence point to the contrary, but we are led to believe that New York...

Absolute Samantha Power Corrupts Absolutely

Lionel Beehner | Posted March 8, 2008 | Media


Lionel Beehner

Thank God Samantha Power has resigned from the Obama campaign. Her style of honest, brash, off-the-cuff statement-making has no place in presidential politics. Political operatives should not say anything other than the talking points handed down from the campaigns' higher-ups. That is what we the viewers and voters want--not unscripted...

Bartering My Future

Steven Denlinger | Posted March 7, 2008 | Living


Steven Denlinger

The novella 'Coming to Los Angeles: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love This City' continues as a serial this week.

I got off the airplane at LAX, collected my bags, and eventually stepped through the sliding glass doors onto the sidewalk. Around me, frenetic travelers moved through the...

Dear Barack: Obummer

Steve Almond | Posted March 6, 2008 | Politics


Steve Almond

Dear Barack,

Obummer!

I guess I was a tad premature in counting out Hillary. In my own defense, I'd just come from Texas, and everyone seemed totally juiced for you. But the other side went negative, and managed to guilt trip the press in the bargain. Bottom line: a much...

Racism and Clinton's Victory in Ohio

Jeff Coryell | Posted March 6, 2008 | Politics


Jeff Coryell

I have four points to make about racism and the result in Ohio's Democratic presidential primary on Tuesday.

First, racism undeniably played an important role. CNN exit polling indicated that 20% of voters said the race of the candidate was important factor (undoubtedly a lower than truthful response), and...

Midnight at the Ping Pong Presidential Primary

Gloria Feldt | Posted March 5, 2008 | Politics


Gloria Feldt

Ping . Vermont's presidential primary with its 15 delegates split 9-6 is called as expected for Obama.

I'm watching CNN and thinking about my first and only Texas precinct convention, in 1972. I'd learned from the League of Women Voters how my natal state's Byzantine primary system worked, and I'd...
