It’s been along and grueling campaign for President, with many twists and turns, ups and downs. Only now are people, the voters, beginning to realize something about me that the media and political pundits just haven’t figured out. I never quit. Never. A course may change, a challenge vanquished, but I never quit no matter … Read More »
The summer of my discontent
March 30, 2008
Why the Democrats chose August for a political convention is something I will never understand. It’s all Howard Dean’s fault. Once I’m President the first thing I’ll do is to send that noisy little mouse man back to Vermont. He should have stayed a chiropractor and never become involved in politics. He screwed up the … Read More »
Saturday Night Live Redux
March 29, 2008
I just finished watching Saturday Night Live. Again. It was a repeat of a few weeks ago when I was host. Well, not really host host, but I was the star attraction, along with that cute little girl from the movie Juno. SNL really came through for me this year. Win or lose, I want … Read More »
‘Relax… the game’s not over’
March 28, 2008
It’s the fourth quarter. It’s a close game. Anything can happen. Why should I drop out now? That’s what I told supporters in Indiana. Bill went to Pennyslvania and said basically the same thing. The game is not over. Granted, it’s a long shot, but strange things happen in politics. Look at former New York … Read More »
“A warm bucket of spit.”
March 27, 2008
John Nance Garner once said the Vice President’s job wasn’t worth a warm bucket of spit. I’m not so sure about that. As Barack Obama inches closer to the Democratic nomination for President, I have to think about the future. A black man, an African-American in the White House may present some unexpected opportunities. After … Read More »
Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory
March 26, 2008
I’m more than a little worried about the recent poll results. John McCain is surging ahead of me and Barack Obama. How could this happen? Bill says I peaked too early, probably sometime back in November or December. He says Barack has peaked, too, but McCain has not. Politics is full of ups and downs, … Read More »
Fibber in Chief
March 25, 2008
Alright, so I embellished the facts a little. I’m a politician. It’s what we do. The YouTube generation will be the death of politicians as we know them today. For the past year I’ve been telling people everywhere that helped broker peace in the Balkans, flew into an airfield which was under sniper fire, and … Read More »
What did Rudy do with the money?
March 24, 2008
Barack Obama and I have raised more campaign money than any presidential candidates in history. Out in Pennsylvania, Obama brought in over $350,000 in February, almost twice what I brought in, which was still far less than Rudy Giuliani brought in, and he’s out of the race entirely. Mark Penn was posting the numbers on … Read More »
