    Or, at least, to the Bush Justice Department, it could be.  (If it was a Democrat's website, that is.)I got such a chuckle out of Josh's item about McCain's website giving "Golf Gear" similar billing with his "Decision Center" and...

    There have been multiple, awkward attempts to appeal to Hillary supporters for the sake of party unity, including one by yours truly that was interesting, if not successful. All of them were doomed to failure for two simple reasons.The first...

    By wws on Wed, 06/04/2008 - 10:00pm |
    One of the most beautiful moments of last night in St. Paul was after Obama's speech, after he had done the rope tour and was heading out of the arena proper. An Obama-of-tomorrow boy -- seven or eight? -- was...

    Oh, Sure, Blame Obama

    By Ripper on Wed, 06/04/2008 - 3:57pm |
    There are limits to what Obama and his supporters can do to achieve party unity. The onus, however, is on Hillary Clinton and her supporters.Hyper-aggrieved Clinton partisans here tend to blog that 1) it's time for unity even if Obama...

    Hillary's Non-Concession Speech Revisited

    By dijamo on Wed, 06/04/2008 - 12:53pm |
    Hillary took her speech last night to speak for the 18 million people who've supported, campaigned for her and care passionately about her goals. If you take a look at the segment of the speech "What does Hillary want?," it...

    By Ripper on Wed, 06/04/2008 - 3:16am |
    Hillary Clinton proved tonight she loves nothing so much as herself.Rather than admitting defeat and laying down arms, she spit in Obama's eye and dared him to cross her private army of followers.After a few obligatory sentences of conciliation, she...

    By kgb999 on Mon, 06/02/2008 - 11:28pm |
    Sorry about the title.  This isn't really about Obama or Clinton.  This is about a little love and what it takes to get some around here - for someone without the name Obama or Clinton.  Apparently, the first step is...

    Soooo, Does This Mean That McCain IS For "Capitulation"?

    By azpaull on Mon, 06/02/2008 - 4:47pm |
    I left the office earlier to the sounds of a McCain "sr. policy adviser" on MSNBC saying that Obama's Iran policy is "premature capitulation." First, it is obnoxious and obnoxiously wrong. But, second, is she suggesting that McCain is for...

    Pfleger Was Wrong and Owes Hillary a Public Apology

    By Ripper on Fri, 05/30/2008 - 11:27pm |
    I continue to support Barack Obama, but what's right is right. Much as it pains me to defend a woman who repeatedly has manipulated sympathies of gender and race throughout this campaign, basic intellectual honesty compels me to side with...
