Casting doubt on Obama's "politics of change", which he himself has called "overheated and amplified." Is Obama's move toward the center a reflection of progressive values? Is Obama's move toward the center a losing strategy?

As the national party conventions approach, it is interesting to see how the media pushes and pulls the last two remaining Presidential nominees.

Part of the Military Commissions Act seems to eliminate the right of habeas corpus. “Countdown” examines in a special investigation.

Unity or Disaster

Today Senator Hillary Clinton pledged her "full support" for Democratic presidential nominee Senator Barack Obama. Needless to say that there's little else to do with one's back against the wall, it is good to know Senator Clinton can look past her harsh words in months past. To do anything else would have been political suicide.

Hillary Clinton: Taking a Sledgehammer to the Glass Ceiling

Like any ardent Clinton supporter, I was prepared yet bitterly saddened by the final conclusion of the Democratic primary. Never in my life had I knocked on more doors, called more people, or attended more rallies.

I have admired Hillary for years. In fact,I wrote my free thought college admissions essay on Hillary and the lasting power of sexism.

Its hard to wake me up on a Sat before noon- but today I made an exception. I was there in person to see her launch her campaign, and even if I couldn't be there in person today, I was going to be an avid TV viewer.

Edwards Endorsement BIG

Yesterday former Democratic Presidential nominee John Edwards endorsed Barack Obama for President. This recent development is particularly meaningful in sending the message to Hillary Clinton that it is time to throw in the towel. The continuing Primary race is bad for everyone in very real ways. First off, Democratic polticians cannot publically berate each other and expect the public to believe later that they will function smoothly when this is all over. The nature of debates thus far has made it impossible for an Obama-Clinton ticket to seem at all good for the country. On the same note, I would entertain the idea of an Obama-Edwards ticket which I've been calling for since the start of the race in 2007.
