Wolf Blitzer ... are not his nine minutes of

fame up yet? He's parlayed his boffo reporting from Iraq in 1991 into ... a real nice tabloid-style reporting gig that gets more and more like a parody of a real journalist as time slowly marches on. I honestly can't believe he's not burned out by now on all this trash talk he has to do in the name of 'political entertainment'. He never appears to quite take himself seriously. Perhaps that's his secret to boob-tube success.

Rudy, it's been a beautiful ride but

we would all be hard-pressed to discover a more transparently

hypocritical shtick than your's, lover of Judi.

Why don't you two just take a long vacation down in Florida with the Trumpster and dream of things that might have been - if you weren't such dirt.

Did you and Bernie - and your boy-loving priest pal - ever think you REALLY had a chance?

Good luck with future speeches. I would pay dearly NOT to hear you.

Original article: The rubes and the elites

Hillary, you are not a lady, merely a creature of

your own twisted ego ... a toad soon to be lightly squished by your own unseemly air.

May you retire quietly and without emotional meltdown.

And for gosh sakes take your overexposed family with you.

Obama will win it all next week,

Thanks Hillary ... it's all because of you. Must be your secret strategy.

Please Walter,

I don't have any private access to Hillary so I don't know what she's like when having wine with a friend or shopping at Safeway.

I can only base my opinion of her/her character from that which she shows to the cameras ... and from the hours and hours (16 years of it !) I've seen of her in action in front of the lenses, I'd say she's about as genuine/sincere as a snake oil salesperson.

Basta with the softpedalling of Ms. Rodham Clinton. She's just another pol.

Original article: Does Madonna still matter?

Unseemly

would be a polite understatement.

What is this creature, self-titled 'madonna' ? I have always hated the fact she so blithely appropriated that single name ... and then proceeded to style such a skeevy public self.

Granted, a few of her tunes are easy to listen to ... but I've always - from 25 years ago - detested her, personally. And I am far from alone.

The M girl has always been a self-serving, 'narcissistic 'nothing thing.' Golly, what's she going to be doing when she's sixty ... warbling from Mars?

Bad enough that she pretends to be British - you're from Michigan, not Covent Garden ! Please, stop the incessant posing.

Come on woman, have a little self-respect and quietly go away.

No, Hillary is not a racist ...

... she's merely a champion panderer, reaching grandly for that lowest common denominator. The image she creates for herself in her worst, whiskey-downing moments is so utterly false and pretentious ... that she becomes a parody of herself.

No self-respect. And blacks, whites, browns ... greens and all the in-betweens (with half a brain) are not going to vote for someone who looks like a fake. Hillary has become a fake. Obama is 'for real' and in this primary election, that's enough.

What is Joe Biden ...

chopped liver?

For my money, he's eminently qualified to balance Obama's lack of foreign policy/Washington experience.

Jim Webb, yes ...

an excellent choice, probably at the very top of Obama's VP list. And by the way, he wasn't Asst. Sec. - he was THE Secretary of the Navy under Reagan.

Yeah, Krichster ...

you just look lazy here, reaching for a story 'cause your too tired to get up on your feet and find a real one yourself.

Take a cab next time, like I did two years ago in Beijing. You'll find the service friendly and efficient - and about one third the price of New York.

Hey, the Chinese aren't really all bad. Give them a chance, will ya.

Original article: It's Biden

Like I stated here many months ago ...

it's gonna be Biden. He's truly Obama's better half.

Go Barry/Joe!

Original article: Mean girl

This woman is damaged, inferior goods

Anybody who votes for her will surely do so with eyes and ears firmly closed.

Gen. Powell's statement was a thing of beauty,

clear as crystal and expressing so many points I've longed to hear from someone possessing an authoritative voice. It's shocking that his brief is the first of its kind this election cycle! Thank you, Mr. Powell.

It's just a shame this man has not spoken out earlier - and more often.

He always seems to play all that he does so ... 'safe'.
