Election 2008
It’s All About Them…
This morning I woke up with a renewed sense of purpose recalling that President-Elect Barack Obama was somewhere thinking through the next steps in this Brave New World, though it would be quite unfair to draw comparisons to Huxley’s great work. This morning I felt like I’d spent an entire night taking in some Soma [...]
Thank You John McCain…
I was beside myself when Barack Obama was declared the next President of the United States.
I am beside again watching John McCain giving his concession speech, and I simply wanted to say thank you John McCain for being eloquent and for being just. You stepped up and fought a strong race, and you didn’t win, [...]

It Began Last Night…
21 people in a Northeaster New Hampshire town that boasts a population of 75 stayed up late to cast the first official votes of today, and this morning CNN’s reporting that Obama won that town by a landslide – 15 votes for him, while McCain only picked up 6.
What’s the big deal you ask? Well, [...]
Too Little? Too Late?
Conspiracy Theorists Unite!
I’ve just sat here and watched some of the Saturday Night Live Presidential Bash on NBC, and just about fell out of my chair with an ad airing tonight where the National Republican Trust PAC is trying to rekindle the connection between Obama and Reverend Wright. The ad shows a profile of Obama [...]
After 23 Million Votes… Obama is Up…
It’s been quite some time since my last post, and most of you are probably wondering what the heck? so, I’m back, and happy as a kid in a candy store right now at the idea that over 23 million Americans have already cast their vote for this coming Tuesday’s election – including myself.
According to [...]
Obama? The Anti-Christ? Truth or Dare…
A good friend of mine, Dave, on his Techie Blog, Beyond the Bits, wrote an article worth reading, though I respectfully disagree with his second to last paragraph. OBama is the answer, and all we have to do as sane folk is stop listening to all the rhetoric and show McCain that we are not [...]
One To Go… Go Obama!!!
So, after finishing tonight’s Presidential Debate ABC News’ Channel 7 team had two groups of voters – one a group of students and the other a group of everyday New Yorkers. Each group was asked what camp they sided with before and then after the debate, and I wasn’t surprised by their positions before and [...]
The Electoral Map Begins to Shift…
According to NBC’s FirstRead,
After the conventions and the candidates’ VP picks, Obama still maintains a slight lead electoral lead, according to NBC’s map. Obama has 228 electoral votes to McCain’s 200, with 110 electoral votes in the toss-up column. The changes from last month, when Obama held a 217-189 advantage: Missouri moves from toss-up [...]
McCain… The New Change Agent…
I’ll let Barack Obama speak for himself, but listen carefully, and remember what McCain’s been saying…
So, what is McCain trying to shovel? Except for more of the same old same old? This is part of the reason why we have to shake things up this Fall and make sure that McCain DOES NOT win the [...]
