Senator Jesse Helms

New York Times: Reports on the death of Senator Jesse Helms, a tough Conservative who helped in the Reagan Revolution. Although one might not agree with a lot of his policies, his early support for Reagan shows that he could see a great leader for the Republicans and the United States. The Democrats have Kennedy the Republicans had Helms.

McCain, Obama and Iraq

The New York Times: Interesting article that looks at how Iraq will affect the Campaigns of Obama and McCain. On the Obama side how the success in Iraq means that he has to change policy to win the centre while McCain who won has supported the War from the start but was critical of the management has to make the issue work for him during the next few weeks and months. This is a very fair article by the Liberal New York Times, but also shows how Iraq is working, they might left wing crackpots but they are not stupid. The politics is simple, if McCain can define Obama as weak on National Security and not willing to change, thus Iraq, he will win the election, the intelligent liberal left, as represented by the Times wants to give Obama a get out clause, change the rules thus move to the centre and remove one of the pillars of the McCain Campaign.

Obama and the NYT

The New York Times: Is not happy, Obama has moved to centre as fast as he can, from Iraq to the Supreme Court. The Obama Camp take note, what makes the Liberal New York Times unhappy gets you closer to the White House. After Obama has been to Iraq have him change his policy, the troops stay, the Liberal New York Times will go through the roof, good, and Obama will be in the Oval Office.

Obama on Iraq Redux

Fox News: Reports on the confusing messages send out by Obama, Fox reports that Obama has to have a second news conference to clear up the impression that he was changing views on Iraq. But if he has a deadline for leaving Iraq why bother going to the country, why listen to the Commanders on the ground. As with wiretapping Obama has to stand up to the liberal left of his party, he has to become a hawk on national security if he wants to win the election. The Liberal Left have not had a great idea about Foreign Policy since JFK. If Obama moves on Iraq then he would regain the previous support he had from the right even from this page.
