When Kamala Harris picked Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate, my heart burst with pride for my home state. As a daughter of Minnesota, it has been thrilling to watch how quickly the country has gone wild for Walz. Of all the refreshing qualities he brings to the ticket, making kindness cool again may be what this country needs most right now. Walz’s leadership success is a clear rebuke of the harshness towards the vulnerable that has, disturbingly, become normalized. Walz’s record from a lifetime in public service shows that respecting and uplifting those around us creates opportunities...

Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey (D) has called on President Biden to “carefully evaluate” his candidacy as concerns about his ability to win the election persist, despite his team insisting he won’t step aside. In a statement obtained by NBC News, Healey said Biden saved democracy by winning the 2020 election, and that this year’s is “the most important election of our lifetimes.” Healey was one of several Democratic governors to meet with the president Wednesday evening to discuss the future of the party after his lackluster debate performance a week prior that left many of his supporters in a panic....

Democrat presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Breitbart News this weekend that his wife, actress Cheryl Hines, has lost jobs in Hollywood for supporting his campaign. Appearing on Breitbart News Daily, the son of political titan Robert F. Kennedy (a.k.a. Bobby) said that cancel culture exists and it is “alarming.” “You mentioned fear just now,” Joel Pollak said. “I wonder if you share some of the fears many Americans have of the cancel culture. You spoke about your wife, actress Cheryl Hines, potential first lady. She’s a very talented actress, very funny. Has she faced that kind of fear?...

A statement of candidacy Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has filed with the Federal Election Commission indicates that he is poised to enter the 2024 presidential race as a Democrat. Kennedy, who is a nephew of Democratic President John F. Kennedy, had previously indicated the he was mulling a White House bid. "Help me decide whether to run for President," he tweeted last month, inviting people to donate money or volunteer. "If it looks like I can raise the money and mobilize enough people to win, I'll jump in the race. If I run, my top priority will be to end...

MSNBC host Joy Reid said Monday on her show “The Reid Out ” that black voters felt disrespected by Republicans choosing Georgia Republican Senate nominee Herschel Walker. Panelist and activist LaTosha Brown said, “Black people are upset. They feel insulted. They feel insulated that the Republicans would pick a candidate and because he was a ballplayer, that in some way, and if they planted this narrative that black men were not going to vote and are upset with the Democratic Party, those two things were enough to fool us. We’re far more sophisticated. There’s a certain level of feeling insulted,...

Feel free to believe that there is a glimmer of hope for Ohio Gov. John Kasich's bid for the Republican presidential nomination. If that gives you comfort or plays to your own preferences, be my guest. I certainly wouldn't want to make you uncomfortable. But even if you believe that, try also to understand that Kasich's campaign is done. You can stick a fork in it. He will not be the GOP nominee for president in 2016. Recent endorsements from two New England newspapers prove that. Kasich continues to plug away in New Hampshire, hoping that lightning will strike and...

Hillary Rodham Clinton pledged that her 2016 campaign would be better than her 2008 campaign. And it has been. She has hired the best and brightest of Democratic staffers. She has purposely downplayed her celebrity and has tried to personally connect with voters in Iowa and New Hampshire. She has focused on telling her personal story rather than trying to constantly answer the "is she tough enough to be commander in chief" question. And yet, here we are. Clinton is in the midst of a full-scale Democratic freakout due to her faltering poll numbers and ongoing questions about how she...

Yes, he really is running — as of today. -- Donald Trump will be announcing for president today, according to a source close to the Trump camp. Apparently, the conventional wisdom that Trump was just making presidential noises because he always does turned out to be…well….flat wrong. Yesterday, the Washington Post reported that Trump has released papers showing his net worth to be $9 billion. A release that is being made in anticipation of his announcement today. Apparently the conventional wisdom over the years that had people either insisting he wasn’t really a billionaire at all (as did a New...

Awaiting press conference. "FOX NEWS CONFIRMS RICK SANTORUM TO SUSPEND CAMPAIGN"

Within the ever shifting landscape of the Republican presidential candidate pool has been a constant that is both the best and the worst kept secret of the 2012 general election cycle. That secret is whether or not Sarah Palin will throw her hat into the ring as a candidate for president this time out. As I have written in my previous pieces, “Revelation: The Arc of the Candidate,” “Sarah Inches Closer,” and “What Really Makes Sarah Special,” I believe her running for president in 2012 is and has for some time been a fait accompli.Ceteris parabus, fortis fortuit brava That’s...

In front of roughly 200 supporters gathered at a cold, windy Northerly Island, former U.S. Sen. Carol Moseley Braun formally announced her candidacy for Chicago mayor Saturday. “I just want to serve,” Braun said. “Government is about the people’s business and my life’s work has been dedicated to making government work for all of the people.” In her 24-minute speech, Braun said that opponent Rahm Emanuel’s television ads about Chicago needing to decide whether to be a great city or a second-tier city “pose a completely false choice.” “Chicago will always be a great city, because its people will tolerate...

UPDATE: Gov. David Paterson was loudly booed this afternoon when he was introduced to drop the ceremonial first puck at the outdoor hockey game between the Syracuse Crunch and the Binghamton Senators. The governor, who earlier announced his candidacy for election to a full term, took to the ice at the outdoor rink assembled at the New York State Fairgrounds in Geddes around 1:25 p.m. The game was supposed to start at 1. Thousands in the fairgrounds grandstand booed so loudly that the governor's words were indistinguishable over the public address system set up for the first outdoor American Hockey...

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. – John McCain sought to change the course of a campaign moving decidedly in Barack Obama's direction Wednesday night in the third and final presidential debate. With less than three weeks until the Nov. 4 election, the 90-minute debate focusing on the economic crisis offered the Republican senator from Arizona what could be one of his last big chances to persuade voters to give the race another look. Polls show Obama, the senator from Illinois, with a clear lead nationally and in several key battleground states. McCain was keenly aware of the stakes he faced after two debates...

CHARLOTTE, N.C. --Wading back into the Democratic presidential race, billionaire businessman Bob Johnson said Monday that Sen. Barack Obama would not be his party's leading candidate if he were white. Johnson's comments to the Charlotte Observer echoed those of former vice presidential candidate Geraldine Ferraro. She stepped down as an adviser to Sen. Hillary Clinton last month after saying Obama wouldn't be where he is if he were white. "What I believe Geraldine Ferraro meant is that if you take a freshman senator from Illinois called `Jerry Smith' and he says I'm going to run for president, would he start...

http://boortz.com/nuze/index.htmlFriday, September 21, 2007  NEWT ... A CANDIDATE?  Newt Gingrich said that he might still consider throwing his hat into the ring if he can raise $30 million by November. After our American Solutions workshop on the FairTax next week, he is going to spend the month of October seeing if he can bring that money in. By November 1st, he will decide whether or not to run. Remember what I said on the air the other day? A caller asked me what I looked for in a presidential candidate. I answered that I wanted someone who really...

Fred Thompson’s forthcoming announcement that he will seek the Republican nomination for President will push pollsters and conservative kingmakers to increase their scrutiny of the former Tennessee senator. As an unofficial candidate Thompson dominated polls throughout the summer season of presidential campaigning. A September 5 Rasmussen poll found Thompson polling 23% among likely Republican primary voters. Thompson was only a point behind Republican front-runner Rudy Giuliani.

Fred D. Thompson, the soon-to-be-official presidential contender, has come under a good deal of criticism in New Hampshire this week for scheduling his formal announcement for next Thursday morning and thus skipping the Republican debate in Manchester on Wednesday night. But that does not mean that television viewers watching the debate will not see him. Campaign officials said Friday that Mr. Thompson had bought a 30-second spot that would be televised nationally on the Fox News Channel, the network carrying the debate, just as viewers are tuning in at the onset. One campaign official familiar with the decision said the...
