Glasgow By - Election

BBC News: Reports on the shock defeat for Labour in the Glasgow By - Election. I will predict if the Polls don't turn around by Mid 2009 Labour will have a new Leader, those Labour backbenchers will smaller majorities will worry more about their future than that of Gordon Brown. It should be noted that if the Conservatives win the next General Election with a majority more than Labour had in 1997, the Party could be out of power for a generation.

Edwards Scandal Part Two ?

The Hill: Reports on the perceived John Edwards scandal, e.g the Mistress and Family. One has to ask would the former Senator, really have an affair while his wife has cancer and it has to be stressed that this alleged and that it has been denied. But as the article states one can forget Edwards for VP. It can be argued that there is plenty of perceived evidence, but as stated it has been denied by all, but its interesting why it has come out now, do I see the dark hand of the Clinton Camp. As stated in the past Obama needs help with white working class voters, Reagan Democrats, Edwards and his Two Americans was seen as a good choice, but this alleged and not proven scandal could make it harder for Obama to name him as VP. I would go for Governor Richardson for VP.

The Obama Speech in Berlin

The Times: Looks at the prospects for the Obama Speech. Has a look at the historical record of Presidential Speeches in Berlin. The Gipper was the best, the Wall came down two years later. Obama does not need the votes of Germany, he can not afford to lose votes at home. I will update when seen the speech and the reaction, correction, the Elite Media will say he is another JFK and Reagan and Sun King!

Update: To long a speech, tried to copy the giants of American Politics, JFK and Reagan. The arrogance before the fall, Obama could lose this election by himself.

Liberals and Terror

Newsweek: Reports on how the Democrats view the War on Terror. A interesting article on how the Democratic Party view the world post 9/11. The US Supreme Court has give the terrorists held in Cuba the same rights as American Citizens, the Bush Administration wants to prevent these terrorists from being released on the American Homeland. As the Liberal Left Wing of the Democratic Party now has power in Congress, they care more about the rights of the terrorist than of the voters in the United States. This could really be a good Issue for McCain, he has to point the finger at Obama, has to start real hard hitting Political Ads now, make Obama deal with the Issue, make him split from the Congress or if he does not show him to be weak when it comes to National Security.
