Barack's speech on the economy...

The tide is turning.

Keep hope alive!

The Clinton political limbo dance continues...

One more time... "How low can you go?... Everybody! How low can you go?..."

Mike Wereschagin and David M. Brown write for the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review:

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, in a wide-ranging interview today with Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reporters and editors, said she would have left her church if her pastor made the sort of inflammatory remarks Sen. Barack Obama's former pastor made.
"He would not have been my pastor," Clinton said. "You don't choose your family, but you choose what church you want to attend."

Obama's lead in national polls has slipped since clips of the retired Rev. Jeremiah Wright began being played on national news programs. The uproar prompted Obama to give a wide-ranging speech on race in America a week ago. The Clinton campaign has refrained from getting involved in the controversy, but Clinton herself, responding to a question, denounced what she said was "hate speech."

"You know, I spoke out against Don Imus (who was fired from his radio and television shows after making racially insensitive remarks), saying that hate speech was unacceptable in any setting, and I believe that," Clinton said. "I just think you have to speak out against that. You certainly have to do that, if not explicitly, then implicitly by getting up and moving."

Desperate to shift attention away from her bald-faced lie about dodging bullets in Bosnia, Clinton shamelessly stokes the smoldering racial fires of the Jeremiah Wright controversy.

Headbangers for Obama!

J. J. French of the hair metal band Twisted Sister re-recorded their hit, "I wanna rock" (and assembled a make-shift video) as a tribute to Barack Obama...

I WANT BARACK!!!
