Uncle Tom ?

Fox News: Reports an African - American supporter of Hillary Clinton was called a Uncle Tom for supporting her over Obama. This is a disgrace you don't support someone because of the colour of their skin, you support a candidate what ever their ethnic, gender character because they speak to your concerns. If the story is true, the Obama has to have a word with his supporters, he cant annoy the Clinton supporters any more, he needs them what ever their colour or gender.

The Democratic Convention


Lets see what the Media is reporting from the Convention.



Washington Post: Reports that the Senior Advisers to Hillary Clinton are going to miss the speech by Senator Obama. I have problems with Senator Obama but he did win fair and square, this dissing by the Clinton Camp is bad, is shows that there a deep divisions between the Clintons and the Obamas. The truth is out there, the Clintons want Obama to lose the 08 race.


Politico
: Reports on the bad blood between the Clintons and Obama. The Article notes that former President Bill Clinton is not happy with the Convention schedule. Bill Clinton should be grateful that he is allowed back to a Democratic Convention, the Party Establishment made sure he survived in office, he owes the Democrats, grow up Bill, your not the President any more, Obama if he wins will leave you out in the Cold.


Two Satellites for Russia

The Times: Reports that the Russian Parliament has voted to recognise the two Georgian provinces of South Ossetia, the province that started the War between Russian and Georgia and Abkhazia as Independent states. The Russians have won on the ground, in less NATO is ready to place troops in Georgia and march up the Russians with an order to leave they will stay on Georgian Soil. If Russia wants to play this game, lets hit them hard on the diplomatic front, the Ukraine in to NATO, NATO bases on the border between Russia and Ukraine, the Russian fleet under the eye of the USA Navy. If they leave their base in the Ukraine they don't come back in to port. In Georgia place NATO troops and planes right up the noses of the Russians, counter every move they make with further action, make them blink like they did in 1962. Lets make Putin wish he had given the two provinces in full to Georgia. Lets show the Russia bear that if steals honey it he will get a sting that will make him think again before taking action against a Democracy.

Lieberman for VP ?

The New York Times: William Kristol a Conservative writes in the Liberal New York Times that McCain should pick his friend Senator Lieberman as his VP. This would be a bold move, McCain would become the change agent, Lieberman was the VP to Al Gore in 2000. Lieberman has supported the War in Iraq, this has cost him on the political front, this move would be a great move, it could blow the Obama/Biden ticket out to the water. The question is would McCain dare take such a bold move in the 08 race.

Obama vs Clinton

The New York Times: Reports on the division with the Democratic Party between the the Clinton and Obama supporters. A minority in the Clinton Camp are never going to forgive or vote for Obama, if McCain can get this minority either to vote for him or not to vote then McCain could win the 08 race.

Democrats for McCain



A great Ad by the McCain Camp, shows that McCain has appeal to Democrats. Also meant to show the problems between Obama and Clinton Supporters. A great, fun Ad.

CNN Poll after Biden Pick

CNN Poll: Reports that the Biden pick has not helped Senator Obama. The Poll finds that Obama and McCain are tied at 47%. The Convention is another chance for Obama to seal the deal with white, working class voters, also to retake the lead among older women voters from McCain. The Obama Speech has to hit the ball out of the park, otherwise this will be a very long campaign for the Democrats.
