Dems 2008: Fear and loathing over Florida, Michigan and super-delegates [Karl]

The Democratic angst over the Michigan and Florida delegations grows as more people ponder the possibility that neither Sen. Hillary Clinton nor Sen. Barack Obama will lock up the nomination before the party’s convention. Dan and Carin flagged the growing dispute about the Michigan delegation this morning. The Michigan Democratic Party said Friday that Sen. Hillary Clinton will get 73 pledged delegates, while 55 delegates will be uncommitted since Sen.

YAF Hosts Coulter; delightfully sticks finger in the eye of CPAC

Coulter’s speech can be viewed in its entirety here. One line that sticks with me: “If [the conservative grassroots] had a month, we could have educated primary voters” — and McCain would never have gotten the Republican nomination. But alas.

State of the Nation, Address: The Sequel [Dan Collins]

From happyfeet, channelling BJ’s comments from Jeff’s post of yesterday: Fred Kaplan pimps the “resurgent Taliban” lie to service a wholesale revision of the historical record… The real problem goes back still further. When the United States helped kick the Soviet army out of Afghanistan in the 1980s, we left soon thereafter – the goal was to defeat the Russians, not help the Afghans. And so the Taliban filled the

Something Skanky in the State of Michigan [Dan Collins]

Michigan’s delegates have become a kind of slush fund for Hillary, it seems.  Carin’s on the case.

Barack Obama’s presidential campaign aides stepped up their effort to force Democrat Hillary Clinton to release her tax returns yesterday, to shed light on the sources of income that enabled her to loan $5 million of her own money to her presidential bid.While Obama made public his tax return last year, Clinton’s top advisers have maintained that they will only

Pandermonium [Dan Collins]

Howard Kurtz on the Shuster kerfuffle: In case there was any doubt, using a prostitution metaphor for the daughter of a presidential candidate is not a good career move. MSNBC suspended correspondent David Shuster yesterday for an undetermined period for making a disparaging on-air remark about Chelsea Clinton. Meanwhile, officials in her mother’s campaign raised the possibility of punishing the news channel by boycotting future debates. While filling in as

Allahpundit is Courtney Love [Karl]

That’s what Little Miss Attila was hearing at CPAC. It would explain the whole secret identity.  And the crush on Kirsten Powers. All the more reason to cast Scarlett Johansson.

McNamee Says He Injected Clemens’ Wife

Well, she is pretty hot, I guess. I don’t know if I’d go public about that, though.  They say he takes steroids. 

Happy PW Birthday [Dan Collins]

happyfeet! Happy belated birthday, bmoe! 

Archmoonbat of Wankerbury Surprised By Negative Reaction to Serial Idiocies [Dan Collins]

The Archbishop of Canterbury was facing demands to quit last night as the row over sharia law intensified.  Leading bishops publicly contradicted Dr Rowan Williams’s call for Islamic law to be brought into the British legal system. With the Church of England plunged into crisis, senior figures were said to be discussing the archbishop’s future. One member of the church’s “Cabinet”, the Archbishop’s Council, was reported as saying: “There have
