Friday Free For All..Election 2008
Posted in All Black, Black Links on November 9, 2007 by biglooJOIN OUR NEW Political Black Black Pages Today Network MySpace GROUP!
Since this whole internet “thing” looks like it might stick around for a while, I decided to create a MySpace Black Pages Today/Political Black Group. What are we (i.e., you and me) going to do with it? I have no idea yet, but it’s yet another way for all of us to network. While you’re at it, feel free to add me to your Friends list so I don’t develop self-esteem issues.
NORTH CAROLINA Polls : A new WTVD-TV/SurveyUSA poll gives us an early snapshot of next year’s gubernatorial primaries. The Democrats: Lieutenant Governor Bev Perdue – 47%, State Treasurer Richard Moore – 38%. The Republicans: attorney Bill Graham – 26%, State Senator Fred Smith – 24%, former Supreme Court Justice Bob Orr – 15%.
In a major coup, former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani (R) scored the endorsement Wednesday of influential televangelist Pat Robertson. A 1988 White House hopeful, Robertson runs the Christian Broadcasting Network and is the former national president of the Christian Coalition. The endorsement of Giuliani came as a surprise to leaders in the Religious Right movement, who warned for months that many Evangelical conservatives would back a pro-life third party candidate or stay home in November if the pro-choice Giuliani is the Republican nominee.
MSNBC’s Chuck Todd reported on current polling trends he’s seeing in surveys prepared for NBC/Wall Street Journal. Here are some excerpts: “General distrust of government is not a new phenomenon; it has been the fuel for electoral upheaval for decades. But it’s important to note that there may be evidence of a much angrier and anxious electorate than either party is preparing for in 2008. How angry are you?
Democrats Betraying 2006 Voter Mandate on Iraq and Immigration
Posted in All Black, Black Links on May 23, 2007 by biglooIt looks like the Democrats will have a short rule in DC. They talked tough about ending the war last year while campaigning, but it looks like the desire for political comfort won out over real action, after the Democratic Congressional Leadership’s capitulation on Tuesday to the Bush White House on Iraq War funding. Pelosi, Hoyer and company can try to bull us as much as they want, wrap it in thick rhetorical trimming, and spin, whining and lying, but they shamefully lost their nerve this week on the single most important political issue facing our nation today.
Democratic leaders seemed to have forgotten they recaptured majority status largely on angry voter backlash to Bush’s blood letting, failed and seemingly never-ending military occupation of Iraq. Also the Immigration bill compromise will come back to haunt Democrats in 2008. We should send all those idiots from the CBC(Congressional Black Caucus) home over this bill.
Its becoming increasing clear that current Democratic leaders don’t have the guts to be real leaders, and will be out of office after the next elections.
