In a decision that I can only describe as chilling, the Supreme Court has opened the doors for corporate capital to pretty much buy whatever it wants.
While I don’t think that money was the issue for Coakley on Tuesday, truth’s comment on the race is telling:
Here’s the stat that brings it all home: After the [...]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know. You know what the worst part of it is?
That this guy was there with his friend Jerry Jones – and that he had a good time.
He should NEVER have a good time.
And speaking of folks who should never have a good time, of course Dick Cheney is perennially on my [...]
Well, this Monday the leaves are bursting out of clenched buds and the silohuettes of the trees are taking on that lacy, early-spring look. The new greens are woven in with reds, still – and the tulips are coming into their own as the daffodils fade … and birds are trilling and mating as their [...]
Good January Morning! It is bitter, bitter cold here as dawn etches the horizon’s edge with wan light. Here’s a sunset photo shared by HollyCornblog yesterday … the sunset light hitting the hulking wreck off the Cape May, NJ shoreline. (It makes me think of the cold, dark havoc and destruction wrought by the Bush [...]
Tomorrow at 6AM we’ll start the next leg of the Olympic tournament journey. There’s not a lot in the way of soccer news in the interim. The WNT Blog is a good place to track the USWNT’s travels and preparation for tomorrow’s showdown with Canada. An upbeat and determined Canadian squad is looking for a [...]

I continue to be impressed with HAO’s play – and was also very glad to see Mitts playing more like her old self. Hope A-Rod gets her scoring started against New Zealand … and then [...]

… and the US is looking better. Here’s Boltgirl’s analysis of Wed’s game …
22nd minute and too much boom ball, still. But overall better … and Brandi sounds happier, too!
PS John Edwards? Oh my god … the haircut really did reflect something significant about his soul …

This article and election map on the Huffington Post argues that Obama is going to win handily in November – not even close. Boy do I hope this is true!
And the projected win is in the context of media bias slightly favoring McCain … according to a study referenced in this recent piece by James [...]
In what could well be their biggest challenge to date, the USWNT face Sweden in Sweden for the first time ever! (Check out the USSF article linked above – there are lots of interesting tidbits to peruse!) They’ll play just below the Arctic Circle (!) at Norrvalla Stadium in Skelleftea. The last time the USWNT [...]

Well, round one is done! A strong showing for Obama and Huckabee … which will make the NH primary all the more interesting. Will they solidify their positions, or will there be more shifting and jockeying before this is done? My money’s on the latter.
I liked Howard Fineman’s analysis and agree with the message of CHANGE that is [...]
It’s nearly Solstice and we’ve had some major snow here in NH for this early in the winter. December 20th and the paths we’ve shoveled have 3-foot mounds on either side of them. Amazing! (Lately I’ve had a daydream of putting my head down, racing through that maze of snow-mounded paths, and scooting a quick/crafty route right around [...]
