"As a senior White House aide, Emanuel was one of President Bill Clinton’s favorites. Emanuel has been close to both of the Clintons."

Ol' Rahm better keep a close watch on his six. There are dozens who didn't and are now looking at the grass from the wrong side.

McCain's performance? Seems to suggest that there is no core belief, only performance. Most politicians perform anyway.

McCain dings candidacy

Fixed it

[snarkpup]

The McCain performance that sticks in my mind was his debate with Bush and Alan Keyes during a primary race several years ago. He was hurling childish insults like a four-year-old. This convinced me that, independent of whatever his politics are, he has some sort of mental or emotional disorder.

It doesn't matter who you vote for, you're still going to wind up with a Politician.
- Will Rogers

An honest politician is one who stays bought.
Distinguishing between political parties on a basis of their respect for rights is rather like distinguishing between motorcycle gangs on a basis of their taste in beer. - Doug Caprette

"Hello," lied the politician.

[E]lections amount to no more than choosing between the scum that floats to the top of the barrel and the dregs that settle to the bottom. - L. Neil Smith

Giving power and money to Congress is like giving liquor and car keys to teenage boys. - P.J. O'Rourke

Compromise is: getting rid of your principles a little bit at a time. - Patrick Lear

Undermining Hillary

"Jerome Corsi, co-author of the 2004 campaign book `Unfit for Command' attacking Sen. John Kerry’s war record, joined up Tuesday with the organization intended to similarly undermine Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton in the 2008 campaign.

"TheVanguard.org is intended to be a right-wing version of the leftist MoveOn.Org. It was founded by Silicon Valley entrepreneurs, including Gil Amelio, former CEO of Apple and National Semiconductor.

"Coming on board Feb. 16 as TheVanguard’s full-time editorial and creative director will be Richard Poe, who has served as editor-in-chief of FrontPage Magazine. He has been described as the conservative movement’s leading expert on MoveOn.Org’s strategy in bringing together disparate elements with a common viewpoint."

Romney is picking up support for President among House Republicans, headed by former Speaker Dennis Hastert.

This is a prized endoresement in the wake of L'Affair Foley?

I came back from church last sunday in time to see the last part of McCain's appearance on MTP. He was definitely down in the dumps.

I think Obama can beat Hitlery but only if he fights hard. If he does a Bill Bradley (aka 2000) then he will be crushed by Hitley's Henchmen.

There's only one contender in the Republican field announced whom I'd vote for, and that's Duncan Hunter, and he doesn't have a chance. Rudy's likeable, but his political views and the policies he would implement don't cut it. I despise McCain and I LOATHE Romney. Once upon a time I liked Brownback, but he's become an idiot, so scratch him, too. So far, we don't have a decent candidate who can raise enough money to get elected.
