McCain won’t get the nomination. He can only win in states where Democrats, independents and the media can influence the election, such as IA, NH and MI, or other open primary states. You’re right.

I would listen to two comments from Brit Hume in two minutes than an hour of CNN.

Brit has had his moments. But, he's either given up or lost control of the newsroom. Waiting for two minutes from Brit is no longer enough of a reason to help Fox's ratings.

It 's the latter, actually. When you have a liberal democrat as a reasearch-assistant & lose control over your staff, well.

Not to mention the war that’s broken out between the unions in Nevada:

Black Leaders Question Clinton Remarks

I think that 's a calculated move by the Clintons. If any Republican came close to this, he would be forced out of politics (remember Trent Lott?). MSM & Sharrpton, Jackson gang will benefit from this, besides Clintons.

Divide & Rule works for them.

Speaking of which...a test of how tought Russert will be on Hillary. Will he ask her “Shouldn’t those workers have a chance to vote?”. When she tries to remain neutral, will he push her? The very parties bringing the lawsuit were at the Dem meeting where these caucuses were approved...they voted FOR them. Now they suddenly want to squash them, the day after the culinary union denied Hillary the endorsement she’d assumed was hers.

Tim’s questions on this will be telling...and hopefully interesting.

I think you hit the nail on the head with this one. Hillary will try to destroy Obama while trying to put the blame on Republicans. That worked to a degree in the past but I hope these efforts will be exposed with todays rapid responses on the web.

Morning Morgan hope the force is with you today.

I have never ever seen such a mums the word campaign by the drive-bys before. They must have put the word out that anyone who mentions Fred's name will be fired.

Can we add FreeRepublic’s traffic to the list as a way of contrasting?

Sharpton was on last night with Geraldo. He was as neutral as one can be.

I imagine he and Jackson (and many black leaders in SC) see this as a way to profit. Which campaign will throw the most money at them to either endorse or remain neutral? .

Morning rodguy911. The Sunday Thread could be a good one today IF some hard questions are asked on the shows.

Sorry to hear you’re tired. Perk up, it’s going to be a long day today. LOL

NYTimes headline - "Iraq Eases Curb on Ex-Officials of Baath Party".

Even worse... their editorial

Great catch John but the msm/dbm declared Iraq lost over a year ago and haven't changed their minds,at least the talking points from the DNC have not changed yet.

Only rat candidates are allowed to even mention the surge.

Evidently,the only thing that will get you fired faster from the failing DBM corporate jobs is to mention the success of the surge and now as you point out political successes as well in Iraq or that Fred Thompson is still alive and well. Either statement will get a drive by "journalist" fired immediately.
