Today Jim Gilmore barely got the Republican nomination for the open senate seat. 65 votes! Steadily I think Virginia is going to become more like us over here in Maryland. And Mark Warner has his first campaign ad up:
Obama will win Virginia on Warner’s coattails.
That’s sort of beyond bitter.
I am bitter and I am clinging to my gun!

* I’m glad to see the party finally standing up to the Clintons. Florida and Michigan both get their delegates in with penalty, supported by Obama and opposed by the Clintons. The Clintons no longer control the party.
* Harold Ickes is clearly among the more odious of the Clinton goons. The way he threatened the [...]
To most of us this is accepted knowledge, but not the Clinton campaign. Furthermore, delegates are what determines the party’s nominee. Always has been.
Without objection.
I haven’t been watching this thing in full – even I am not that boring – but I’ve now seen Harold Ickes have his butt handed to him twice. First was up against Rep. Robert Wexler, and later against Sen. Carl Levin (who seriously has issues with the Iowa-New Hampshire monopoly – and I agree [...]
Watch one of America’s two major parties get all up in detailed political procedure.
Edicts like this remind me why even though I have some form of religious leaning, I’m not a member of an actual church.
The Vatican issued its most explicit decree so far against the ordination of women priests on Thursday, punishing them and the bishops who try to ordain them with automatic excommunication.
The decree was written [...]
Dan Abrams treats Bill O’Reilly’s insane rant from last night perfectly on tonight’s edition of Verdict.
Slapped down.
Sen. John McCain said he’ll no longer use pictures of himself and the top U.S. commander in Iraq in fundraising materials after being criticized by Wisconsin Governor Jim Doyle and others.
The presumptive GOP presidential nominee was criticized by Sen. John Kerry and Doyle for e-mailing supporters a picture showing him shaking hands with Gen. [...]
There is a Wifi network in my neighborhood that pops up on my computer called “Escobar Network”. Every single time I see it I think “the family of deceased drug kingpin Pablo Escobar lives in my neighborhood, and they have Wifi”.
Every time.
Our subway system here is pretty good, but one of the problems is that if I want to go from my part of Maryland – Takoma Park/Silver Spring to somewhere like Bethesda, I have to go through Washington D.C. to do it. This makes no sense. By auto that’s about 15 minutes drive, but because [...]
Denver Broncos Cheerleaders are in Denver. Hmmm.
And by we, I mean me. OliverWillis.com is one of the blogs officially credentialed to cover the Democratic convention in Denver. I’ve never been to a convention (a political convention, that is, I’ve *ahem* been to a comic book convention or 10) so this should be pretty cool.
I’m thinking [...]
Voters are strongly rejecting conservative ideology, not just the GOP brand. Of course disasters brought about by conservative principles on both the international (Iraq) and domestic (Katrina, the economy) fronts will do that for you.
Clearly this is good news for John McCain.
(Also, conservatives still have convinced themselves that “earmarks” are the reason they lost in [...]
