Barack Obama used his victory in South Carolina to change the dialogue with the Clintons in the presidential race. He has taken Hillary’s and Bill’s attempt to use the race issue and replied with a clever move. He has basically called their bluff. And Ted Kennedy’s endorsement of Obama has ratified the Illinois Senator’s strategy and candidacy. So far, to summarize: Move One was when Obama arrived as a new candidate. Move two was Hillary’s comeback that she is more experienced. Move three was when Obama pivoted off her experience message and said he was the voice of change. Move...

Sunday, April 22, 2007 Here's what the Supreme Court said Congress could prohibit in last week's Gonzales v. Carhart decision. Here's what the Supreme Court said is not included in a woman's constitutional right to an abortion: A abortion doctor extracts a baby, feet first, from a mother's womb down through the birth canal until only its head remains inside. The abortion doctor plunges the tips of his surgical scissors into the back of the still-living baby's skull, inserts a suction device into the opening and vacuums out the baby's brains. The abortion doctor then proceeds to completely remove the...

Right wing stepping up war on Hillary Clinton Monday, June 20, 2005 By DICK POLMAN PHILADELPHIA - These are dark days for the conservative activists who despise Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, and they're itching to brighten their mood by taking her down. Much to their horror, she appears to be shedding her 1990s image as a leftist Lady Macbeth, winning plaudits as a hawkish senator who talks about God and breaking bread with many of the same Republicans who impeached her husband. It's gotten to the point where a Fox News poll last week found that her national favorability rating...

CBS News anchorman Bob Schieffer warned Saturday that if Hillary Clinton is elected president, her judicial appointees are likely to be radical extremists - and Republicans won't like it one bit. Arguing that the Senate threshold for confirmation of Supreme Court nominees should be 60 votes, Schieffer told WABC Radio's Mark Simone: "If Hillary Clinton is elected the next president and you have a Democratically controlled Senate, conservatives better understand that she can nominate someone who's pro-choice, pro-gay rights, pro-gay marriage and against the death penalty." The CBS newsman predicted that Mrs. Clinton "could nominate someone like that and be...

Deep-blue New York could become a red state in the 2008 presidential election, a new poll reveals. The state voted for President Bush over Sen. John Kerry in the 2004 election, 58 percent to 41 percent. But if the 2008 election were held today, New Yorkers said they would vote for former New York City Republican Mayor Rudy Giuliani over Kerry, 49 percent to 42 percent, with the rest uncertain, according to the Fox News Poll. Giuliani also had a 2-percentage-point edge over the state’s own Democratic senator, Hillary Clinton. Even Sen. John McCain beat out Sen. Clinton in the...

Secretly recorded audiotapes that helped drive the prosecution of Hillary Clinton's one-time finance director David Rosen have prompted investigations into the fund-raising activities of other top Democratic figures, a newspaper familiar with the contents of those tapes reported on Friday. Ted Kennedy brother-in-law Raymond Reggie agreed to wear a wire for the FBI in 2002 while facing bank fraud and conspiracy charges in another case. It was Reggie's tapes that captured Rosen making incriminating statements about his role in an August 2000 gala fund-raiser for Mrs. Clinton. But according to the New Orleans Times-Picayune, Reggie's tapes have helped instigate at...

HILLARY GETS IT. Hillary Clinton says she's against illegal immigration. And she would fine employers who hire illegal aliens. Pundits say the New York Democrat is using this hot-button issue to position herself for the 2008 presidential election. It's a way to hit Republicans from the right. Polls show huge majorities of both Republicans and Democrats oppose illegal immigration -- and are frustrated that President Bush won't do a thing to stop it. But this issue does not belong to the right. Or it shouldn't. Illegal immigration hurts most liberal causes. It depresses wages, crushes unions and kills all hope...

Hillary Clinton has moved to the centre in preparation for 2008. It's become a cliché — so self-evidently true that it shows up not merely in editorials but in news articles as well. One of the reasons it's so uncontroversial is that it seems innocuous, even flattering. But, in fact, the "Hillary shifts to the centre" line isn't innocuous at all. It's crucial to the campaign that conservatives will wage against her in coming years. That campaign is likely to revolve around character. In the 1980s, Republicans demonized Democrats as ultra-liberals. But once Bill Clinton moved the party to the...

There was a chill in the air last week when ex-president Bill Clinton joined Time magazine's chief editor, Norman Pearlstine, onstage at Manhattan's Time Warner Center to discuss the events of the day. "There were no pleasantries, no welcoming comments," noted the New York Times. "And at certain points, Mr. Clinton looked peeved." The reason? As Clinton waited in the wings with Pearlstine to come on stage, he confronted the media honcho over a recent Time column by Joe Klein, the Times said. Just days before, Klein had trashed the idea of a presidential bid by Hillary Clinton as a...
