Next day buzz on Obama’s big race speech was basically drawn along party lines: Most Dems loved it (or at least thought it a mild success) while the right pounced on Obama for carrying out what they see as race baiting. You can say that it means the speech was uber-boffo and has the GOP […]

Looks as if the anniversary of beginning of the war in Iraq has made the war a valid issue again in the all-or-nothing Dem race. And Obama isn’t afraid to play up his built-in “I opposed it from the start, you (Hillary) followed the lead of Bush” angle. Like in this nice little web video […]

After David Axelrod and Susan Rice of Obama’s camp basically pinned Hillary as the Dem to blame in the wake of the Bhutto assassination, Hillary and her peeps are fighting back. In Obama’s world, HRC’s pro-war vote in ‘02 and her continued lukewarm support for the war in Iraq caused the U.S. to gaze away from building […]

Feeling pressure from Hillary’s mammoth 3Q fundraising and a stalled position in the polls (save for Iowa
