Man is this going to be a fun campaign season.
Any thoughts on a “Gilmore Girl” ad?
 

Over the weekend I was one of the many parents (according to today’s news) who doled out cash and time to spend a little over and hour and a half sitting in a movie theater with their child. The catalyst that caused this to happen was the opening weekend of the much awaited (at […]

When I heard the news last night that Secret Service protection has been extended to Barack Obama it sent shivers up my back. Jill Miller Zimon at Writes Like She Talks already mentioned this on her page today, but as soon as I heard it last night I was thinking the same thing. […]

In more ways than one.
Senator Barack Obama’s presidential campaign announced his fundraising tally for the first quarter of 2007 and it is beyond an assault on perceived Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton. It is a definitive sign that he is now on top of the heap.

This landmark event (aren’t landmark dates of remembrance usually on like the 10th, 20th, …50th, etc…) which seriously does deserve more than a casual annual mention on the first Sunday of each March […]

I’ve posted a compilation of some of the live blogs from last night’s Obama event at Tri-C over on The Silent Majority. My thanks to tablemates Anthony Fossacecca of Blue Ohioan and Jill Miller Zimon of Writes Like She Talks for their camaraderie, to Jerid Kurtz of Buckeye State Blog and Jason Haas of […]

The cramps in my fingers are dying down and I’m going to try and make ryhme or reason out of last night’s Obama event and live blog by combining everyone’s live posts onto a page on the Silent Majority.  For the moment I’ve got my weekly 24 update to post.  Check in this afternoon for an […]

The crowd’s milling out , but the Senator’s still shaking hands.  I’ll post game the event tomorrow. 
The best part of this whole thing was the interaction with my fellow bloggers.  Reading one another’s posts and then responding.   This is a great free form forum to exchange ideas.  We need to do more of this.
Ta, ta for […]
