New campaign slogan: “Barack Obama: Slacker.”

One of our operatives in the Obama campaign let us know that Barack is taking a few days off this week. The slacker. Tens of thousands of people in Pennsylvania and other states are losing their homes to foreclosures and Obama takes a vacation. I told Harold Ickes, “Icky, I want a new campaign slogan … Read More »

In Pennsylvania, it’s the stupid economy, stupid.

Maggie walked in to my office today and told me to shut up. Just like that. No warning. No provocation. Just, “Hillary, shut up.” I said, “Maggie, did I insult you in some way? If so, I apologize for how you feel. I know that being a black woman, uh, um, an African-American woman of … Read More »

Traitor!

Icky gave me the bad news. Former New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson will endorse Barack Obama. On the surface it would seem as if Richardson has become a traitor, but I don’t think so. Bill owes his entire political life to the Clintons. We gave him everything he has. From his lengthy resume to his … Read More »

It’s no wonder that Florida is like Michigan

National polls are worthless pieces of garbage

America is obsessed with rankings, poll numbers, who’s number one and who’s not. We got word tonight about a new Gallup poll which shows me ahead of Barack Obama, 49 to 42-percent. All I can ask is, ‘How many delegates will that get me?” The answer is, “It depends.” But probably none. The primary election … Read More »

The lipstick on Bill’s collar

If there is one thing a woman knows, it’s her lipstick color. When a wife finds unknown lipstick on her husband’s shirt collar, it raises eyebrows. Mine are raised. I haven’t put an iron to a shirt in about 25 years or so, and wouldn’t know how to turn on my washer unless Martha Stewart … Read More »

Foreign policy is such sweet sorrow

Today is the big day. Today is the day I prove to the world that I know something about foreign policy. I’ve been practicing my big Iraq speech for weeks and it will be the single greatest speech I have ever given, if not the most memorable speech of American politics. The only problem is … Read More »

Vote again. I’ll pay for it.

The first thing I’m going to do when I get sworn in as President is to have the FBI bring me Howard Dean’s head on a platter. Without the rest of his body. I swear, Howard is cross dressing, closet Republican. No single person has screwed up the Democratic Party more since Michael Dukakis. Michael … Read More »
