The O vs McCain

McCain is taking the gloves off, this is a hard hitting Ad, plays on the O as a STAR in Europe. The point being that is the old country, the USA is the new world. McCain has to define Obama as a Arrogant, Weak, Liberal. The ironic part is, the Obama Camp is helping, they are arrogant so is the candidate. The one man that can hand the Presidency to McCain is Obama.

The STAR

RCP Blog: Nice Memo from the McCain Campaign on the O, as Obama is a STAR, we drop all but that, the O is a STAR, therefore what ever he says must be true, and he can not be questioned. The O is beyond critics, he is the THE STAR. Read of the Day.

Obama on Israel and Iran

ABC News: Reports that Senator Obama, the Democratic Nominee has stated that Israel will attack Iran should Iran became a nuclear threat. Obama should start thinking if Israel hits Iran, Iran will hit Iraq, thus his policy of withdrawal will go through the window. As stated in previous post, the election in Israel will have profound results for the region.

Israel the Attack on Iran ?

JP: Reports on the news that Israeli PM Olmert will not run for re - election as leader of his Party and thus PM. The decision is interesting as his successor will have to choose between taking action over the nuclear planning of Iran or to accept a nuclear Iran. This internal election has massive external ramifications for the Middle East. Lets hope they choose a strong leader.

Death in Afghanistan

BBC News: Reports on the death of a British Soldier in Afghanistan. The total number of those killed in Afghanistan now stands at 114. This will be not be the last such report, Afghanistan is a hell hole, it will cost more deaths to turn the place around in the near future.

David Miliband, Next Leader ?

Guardian: A article by David Miliband on the future for Labour. Its odd that he praises Lady Thatcher but cant seem to praise his own leader. Mr Miliband wants the top job, this article can be seen as a direct attack on Gordon Brown, his policies and his leadership style. Mr Miliband should expect a call with a Scottish accent asking him for a meet soon to look at his future prospects, in other words the sack, this is the only chance for PM Brown to stay as PM. Read of the Day.

The Next Labour PM ?

BBC News: Reports that the Foreign Secretary, David Miliband, has set out his political stall to be the next Labour Leader and Prime Minister. PM Brown has a problem, this is fast becoming a drip by drip race to push him out, he has to take swift action, even sack Miliband and Harman. In less the PM takes firm action he might not get to the Labour Party Conference. The Blood is in the water, he either stops this hunt for his job or its over for PM Brown.
