Washington Post: A very interesting article by the WP, Hillary Clinton is starting to recall Ronald Reagan in 1976, he went to the Convention, similar position, but he had the popular vote but was over Hundred delegates behind. The 1976 Campaign of course lead to victory in 1980 and a great Presidency. The question is can Hillary Clinton win at the Convention, Obama will try to create a force field around Florida and Michigan, the usual line you cant change the rules while the game is on, in other words Hillary your a loser.

Money Talks and Walks!!
The Politico: Reports that the Clinton Machine has a problem it cant spin, its low the green stuff, not grass but the dollar. Its not paying its bills, how much more money will Hillary Clinton have to give to her own Campaign, correction how much of Bill Clinton's money will he allow to go down the drain. When will she release her tax returns, will those tax returns show how much Bill has earned, and more important form who and who has given the Presidential Library. It wold be ironic if Hillary Clinton was forced out of the Campaign by money worries, it would also be fun, politics is ruthless no cup of tea and biscuits but don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Dallas,Texas win for Obama Again!
Dallas News: By the Lords of Kobol, Texas is still counting its votes, Obama is ahead in the Caucus system, but it is a mess. If it was not serious it would make a good send up for a Hollywood movie. Get J.R Ewing in there of Dallas fame, he is a fictional character but to be honest would take his word over the shambles of the Democratic Process in Texas.

Hamlet Speaks
The Boston Globe: The former Governor of New York, Mario M. Cuomo, wants Obama and Clinton to show leadership, sorry but from a man who could not make his mind up if wanted to be on the Supreme Court of the United States, give me a break.
Update: The story of the US Supreme Court Job can be found in a great book by George Stephanopoulos, All Too Human, A Political Education. Worth a Buy and Read.
The Democratic Mess
National Journal: A very good article that shows how the Democrats are playing in the hands of the Republicans, raised more money, but who are they attacking, fellow Democrats. While McCain can define himself the Dems are helping the Republicans with the attacks on each other, Judas etc. Must Read of the Day.
Judas Remix
Washington Post: Mr James Carville ( Clinton Cadre 1 )goes to defend his remark that the New Mexico Governor Richardson is a Judas for his support of Senator Obama, and also adds that he is a Traitor to boot, it seems that he agrees as he writes in the WP with " .....Matthew Dowd is right: Had it been the Fourth of July, I probably would have called him Benedict Arnold ". It seems just because Bill Clinton placed him in high office, he owes life loyalty to the Clinton's, that is a Jesus complex!! But one piece of news in the article was this comment, " I know that a former president of the United States who appointed someone to two Senate-confirmed positions is entitled to have his phone calls returned. " Did Governor Richardson not have the courtesy to speak to the Former President, don't see the Gipper having to put up with that or being happy, but then Clinton is not Reagan, Reagan's Vice - President won the election and Obama considers Reagan a transforming President compared to Nixon and Clinton.

New York Times: Reports on the background for the Casey support of Obama. As stated previously I see this as a trend, expect more endorsements.
