Election Thoughts

Tuesday, November 4, 2008

- Contrary to what every pundit and analyst and campaign supporter has told us, this is NOT the most important election in American history. Every election is the most important – or to be precise, the next election is always the “most important.” The only one that matters – the only one that is important – is the one that is next on the calendar. - Biden is from Delaware – the first state. McCain is from Arizona (mostly),...

Election 2008

Tuesday, November 4, 2008

And so it ends. Election 2008 draws to a close today – barring any Florida ’02 scenarios. It has not been a normal election year in Montana, as our state has seen more attention lavished on it by candidates in search of our three electoral votes than in (?) any previous election. Conspicuous by his absence, of course, is John McCain, but I don’t think that people inclined to vote for McCain would withhold their vote for that reason....

Diebold versus ACORN

Tuesday, October 14, 2008

If the 2008 Presidential election is close – and I think it will be – then it sure seems like it’s going to come down to Diebold versus ACORN, doesn’t it? The Diebold conspiracy hasn’t been as prominent in recent months, but the ACORN stuff sure has exploded into the headlines.

Political Support

Thursday, May 15, 2008

- If you’re a political junkie, you can see which of your neighbors have donated to which candidates. For example: according to the HuffPo, Cheryl Crawley, our new GFPS superintendent, donated $350 to Barack Obama. On the other side, Amy Astin, who used to work for Rep Denny Rehberg, donated $500 to Mitt Romney’s campaign, according to NewsMeat. - The keyword in 2008 seems to be “superdelegates.” So how many does Montana have, exactly, and who are they?
