Unruly Indicators

In a 3.17 USA Today/Gallup poll, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton has 51% vs. Sen. John McCain's 46%, and Sen. Barack Obama nudges McCain 49% to 47%. That's Hillary's discredit-and-bomb-Dresden strategy, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright and a nation of brilliant people. But how does this square with the CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey putting Obama at 52% to Clinton's 45% among nationwide Democrats? The usual mixed numbers, lack of trust in pollsters.

Not to mention the likelihood of Pennsyvania lunchbox Democrats favoring Clinton by a decent margin. All of which means...nothing. Except that Obama has to hit out of the park tomorrow, or else.

One-hundred percent of Hollywood Elsewhere readers questioned in a new CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey favor the immediate discontinuation of any further information about current Clinton, Obama and McCain poll numbers, or any other such opportunistic research birthed into existence by some overpaid campaign-running bloodsucker squarely fixated on influencing superdelegate preference through the mass manipulation of public perception regarding their candidate's supposed popularity in general election.

It's always amusing when I hear conservatives decry Democratic 'identity politics', amusing because the GOP is all about 'identity politics', it's just that there's only one identity at issue: White Anglo Saxon Protestant(Ostensibly Heterosexual).

Well, yeah, bombing Dresden served no real military purpose. But then again, we did it and we won the war.

And got at least Slaughterhouse-Five for it...

The article compares tomorrow's speech to Mitt Romney's (lame) attempt to whitewash Mormonism. Boy, that's pretty funny. I hope Barack (we're on a first name basis now,thanks to H-E) knocks it out of the park. He should be able to, and God knows the country needs to hear it. "Lucky he's black," (Ferraro). Of all the ignorant . . .

As Chris Rock says on the great advantage of being black in America, "I'm RICH and ain't none of y'all white people wanna trade places with me."

I'd get behind any leader who'll call out the Chinese for their brutal and repressive actions towards the Tibetan protestors. Where's Bush to stand up for human rights? We should boycott the Olympics. Anyway. If Obama stepped up...

Oh, Jason, don't even bother. Somebody that far sunk in the fever swamps isn't worth fighting with. (He said, imparting a lesson he's certainly failed to heed himself.)

Here's the clip from Wright I disagree with: "He doesn’t fit the model. He ain't white. He ain't rich and he ain't privileged."

Let's see, half-white, household income of $900,000 a year and a meteoric rise through Ivy League law school and Chicago politics... Reverend Wright ain't been paying attention.
