Hillary Clinton’s victory in West Virginia has anchored her resolve to stay in the presidential race. Yet, as far as the presidential nomination, she is a woman without a hope. There is not a clear legal path with her nomination for president in the Democratic Party. She has been putting a large amount of her [...]

Last week, John McCain was almost poetic as he recounted the importance of the Constitution.

“Why don’t we hold these Wall Street money brokers responsible for their role in this recession?” demanded Hillary Clinton at the Jefferson-Jackson Day Dinner. Even Senator Clinton can’t resist the rhetoric potential posed by fraudulent money handlers as she seeks to curry favor with working class voters. Much of America wants banker-types to pay and [...]

A reasonable case can be made that many Americans, including voters at the booths, feel overwhelmed, shell-shocked and mystified by the past that stands out in recent memory.
