All Obama all the Time

Mmm. I'm trying a small bottle of Shakers Rose flavored vodka-
it's quite delightful straight up or with some Quinine Water.

These parodies are getting better all the time:



This one is from Billionaires for Bush.

As the Obama candidacy moves on, we're starting to
see a few memes forming- a big one is Obama as the
center of a cult, and Obama as Hitler. But that is the fun
of this campaign- it throws everyone off balance, even
the haters. Imagine building this huge agitprop machine
because you're expecting to run against another Clinton,
when whoops, something unexpected happens.

...........................................................................................

Here's a real surprise- an advisor high in the McCain campaign
says that if Obama is selected to be the candidate for the Democrats,
he'll drop out rather than campaign against Obama.

I've never seen such devotion in a Republican before...

More unsurprising- a record number of Republicans in
the House will not stand for re-election. If the Democrats
can elect a President- he or she will have a good working
majority to get things done with.

Minnesota Monitor, as always, has some good political
stuff. The big story is an analysis of the campaign. Unless
there is a crushing defeat on one side or another, both Obama
and Clinton may not have enough delegates to win. DNC
chairman Howard Dean will not allow the Florida or Michigan
delegations to be seated at the convention, and he will also
want to avoid a floor fight at the convention. This may all be
decided quietly by the Super Delegates prior to the convention.
Interesting stuff- read it carefully.

Clinton may still take it- but her campaign has been stumbling
badly lately- this Atlantic article takes an inside look as to why-
interesting stuff.

Or, to put it more Rudely, this year's Kerry...

...........................................................................................

Not Obama related at all- a few Minnesota State Legislators
float the idea of a statewide single-payer health plan.
*Sigh- if only*. It could happen if Gov. Timmy is out
of state campaigning as McCain's VP. That's the only
real reason for his footdragging, on everything.
