Four years ago John Kerry took the stage on a rainy April evening in Chicago. It was the day after the Illinois primary – the contest that put Kerry over the 50% threshold of Democratic delegates and made him nominee presumptive. He was there to campaign on behalf of the newly minted Democratic nominee to [...]
It’s very reasoned, very sober, very polite; all the women are well-groomed and the children are above average. The questions are respectful verging on rehearsed. (“How will you make America number one again?”; “You all can’t applaud that long!”) One cannot forget that it’s on the Hallmark channel, however. I keep expecting Dana Delaney, or [...]
Ghost World girl’s Obama robo-call here. UPDATE: In related news, the Obama campaign officially embraces the supporter-created “Yes We Can” video:
Won’t bother cutting and pasting the articles, but here’s a sample of the subject lines of all the emails I’ve gotten today from the Republican National Committee… today. RNC statement and research on Senate’s economic stimulus vote They Said It! Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) On Breaking Her Campaign Promise To Bring 200,000 New Jobs To [...]

The Trial Lawyers sent many, many checks to Edwards, and Obama is apparently up 6 points and climbing down here. I personally think that people are caught up [...]
Three ways McCain could still lose. (For more on the fuzzy math that would get Romney to a delegate fight, see here.)
Campaign confirms. T’script on the way.
I was there, and can’t figure out why people are making so much of it. It really wasn’t a big deal, just a sentimental moment. Meanwhile, Senator Clinton is fighting what appears to be a losing battle with a nasty cold. I wonder how much voice she is going to have left for her Letterman [...]
I wasn’t there with Hillary Clinton when she lost it today–I’m on the road with Obama–but I do know this: She worked at the Yale Child Study Center when she was in law school. This is one of the core commitments of her life. And, from personal experience, I know the amazing work that is [...]
