Files under General | May 6th

The Drudge Report says:

FLASH: It looks like Hillary’s last, best chance of closing delegate gap is slipping away tonight. With clock running out on her, if she couldn’t make up ground this week, it’s impossible to imagine scenario where she could…

Well, this is the end.

TWO MORE PAPERS GO FOR OBAMA

Files under General | Apr 14th

Two leading Pennsylvania newspapers go for Obama.

The (Scranton) Times Tribune endorses Obama:

For Pennsylvania Democrats, the best answer in the April 22 primary is Barack Obama.

The (Allentown) Morning Call says:

Sen. Obama offers that vision to a nation that, like President Lincoln’s, is divided.

It is not about to set out on a literal civil war, but Republican and Democrat, young and old, conservative and liberal have much to fight about and are at each other’s throats with little provocation.

Finding common ground is the key, and Sen. Obama is better able to do that than Sen. Clinton.

She has become a polarizing figure, an image that stems in part from the bitter partisanship of Washington during President Bill Clinton’s administration.

It was not for nothing that the journalist James B. Stewart called his book about the politics of those years ”Blood Sport.”

That rancor was not primarily Hillary Clinton’s fault, but it is real, it persists, and her campaign so far has not dealt effectively with quelling it.

MARK PENN JUMPS FROM THE SINKING BOAT

Files under General | Apr 6th

Mark Penn, the pollster and senior strategist for Hillary Clinton, left the campaign today after it was disclosed that he met with representatives of the Colombian government to help promote a free trade agreement Clinton opposes.

“After the events of the last few days, Mark Penn has asked to give up his role as chief strategist of the Clinton Campaign,” campaign manager Maggie Williams said in a statement released this Sunday.

Well … another key Clinton adviser leaves the sinking boat.
