I am not Sarah Palin - for which I thank ALL the Gods - but I am a pretty ferocious campaigner for what I believe is right and good in this life and Senators Obama and Biden fall into that category . . . more

I get a lot of emails, but I have to admit, the one I got today sickened me. It was from CommonDreams.org's News Center, and republished an article from The Independent, a United Kingdom . . . more

Just when I think politics is enough to make me sick, the Democrats rise above resentment, bitterness, competitiveness and rancor. At 4:48 PM Denver time, Hillary Clinton released her New York . . . more

Hey. I am not criticizing John McCain for wanting to spend the next four years with an ex-beauty queen with a silver tongue, as that is his style, but one has to wonder if Sarah Palin is the . . . more

First my bias. I love to read which makes it hard for me to be happy during an election year or even mildly misinformed. I am also an active Obama volunteer and have been making telephone calls . . . more

As many of you know, I am passionate about our country, but the United States of America has fallen on very sad times. The economic breakdown of late is merely the latest symptom of the moral and . . . more

I've got news for Ms. Clinton and her campaign staff. Just try to plunder my sister State of Oregon in the May primary. They won't fall for it anyway, and Obama will win that state. . . . more
