These days it seems the race for the democratic or gop nomination is all about the points. A new poll out (according to CNN) has Clinton leading Obama by only 6 points in New Hampshire. While its good news for Obama, I have to wonder about the effect this constant polling has on the race for the nomination. Obviously numbers are changing ever

The nice thing about social media sites like Digg and Stumbleupon is that it is the masses that make the difference. They are entirely democratic, even if there be a party or two that sway their influence on the results every so often. Still it is fun using them and you are actually able to get to know some of the people as a result of their

Will Barack Obama throw the 2008 Presidential race to the Republicans? Will his Muslim roots matter? What about his inexperience? Will Democrats once again be split? Jane Devin asks the questions and points out that Obama may be the next Ralph Nader. What do you think? Will Obama's good looks, charm, and charisma be enough to overcome t

I have two concerns about a website that pays affiliates for social media votes:

1. Skewing page one content or, in the case of Stumbleupon, pages delivered. They are turning a social media site, which is supposed to be social and democratic in nature, into pages full of advertisements. Stumbleupon already allows some of this for the membe

Democrats do a lot of good for America. They focus on the country rather than the world and they make the economy better. But spreading democracy to camel riding people of far away countries is not their only goal in life. I am proud of the democrats. However I voted for George Bush.

ABC News projects that Illinois Sen. Barack Obama will be the winner of the Iowa Democratic caucuses. At this point ABC News does not have enough information yet to project who will come in second or third.

The Democratic Party of Japan has expressed their approval for the use of the Earth’s atmosphere for defense purposes. This was done through an outline of a bill on space they plan to submit in 2008. For a nation that preaches pacifism at every opportunity, regardless of the size of it’s military budget, I find this stance rather hypocritical

On the Democratic side, John Edwards, although never the front-runner, has been driving his party’s policy agenda. He’s done it again on economic stimulus: last month, before the economic consensus turned as negative as it now has, he proposed a stimulus package including aid to unemployed workers, aid to cash-strapped state and local governm

Why did I know that the very first thing out of the Democrats mouths would be wailing that it won't benefit those who pay no income taxes. This is an across the board TAX REBATE. It is not a hand out.

This doesn't look good for Ms. Pelosi. After the initial thrill of Ms. Pelosi's ascension to Speaker of the House, folks are not happy with her point of view regarding the Cheney impeachment matter.
