in So, When Will Patti Solis Doyle Be Called ‘ Judas’? on Jack and Jill Politics
They won't call her Judas.
1. She's not much of a heavy weight like Richardson

2. She's a woman, a rather attractive one at that. Carville won't sling mud at women, I don't think (look at who he's married to).

3. She wasn't that effective in terms of managing the campaign. Remember she got fired, and she had a reputation for watching telenovelas. I wrote about it here:

4. It's pretty much over for Hillary, so there's no need to lash out. Solis Doyle has already taken much of the slack in terms of being one of the token "brownies."

in Media Coverage Masks McCain’s Martin Luther King Racism on Jack and Jill Politics
Wow, I didn't know that he had said that re: MLK and RFK's assassinations.


Lately, he has taken to advertising on anti-immigrant websites, so this kind of hate isn't anything new.

in Much Respect To Bill Richardson on Jack and Jill Politics
I caught this too.


Great comparison with Carville and his Republican wife. Seriously, Richardson stood by Bill Clinton in the face of Lewinsky and impeachment. Even Bill Clinton isn't completely loyal to Hillary. Since when did the Clinton machine become the Clinton mafia family?



I can only hope that Bill and Carville lose it again in public and that someone catches it on tape.

in Obama’s Latest Defenders: Mike Huckabee and Fox’s Chris Wallace? on Jack and Jill Politics
I saw this clip with Huckabee too. He did sound perfectly reasonable for once. :)


I think that people forget the context of how the black churches have evolved. When I was in undergrad, I had a professor talk about the black churches and how they really were the only outlet for blacks in the times of slavery and segregation. The mainstream media has neglected this history, and I don't expect that they will visit the context of Rev. Wright's comments beyond the youtubes.

in Bill Richardson Endorses Obama on Jack and Jill Politics
Rikyrah,


Well, team Clinton has taken to lashing out against Bill Richardson since this endorsement hit. I blogged about it on my site. Feel free to cross post it, if you want. I think it would be great if we could get some black-brown cooperation in blogsphere.



While I like Richardson, he didn't do a good job of gaining votes. Obama needs a VP who will bring him votes. I do think that Secretary of State Richardson has a nice ring to it, no?



On the fashion tip, the beard definitely makes him look more ethnic, but I have always thought that Bill Richardson had nice coloring.

in Bill Richardson Endorses Obama on Jack and Jill Politics
I'm so glad to see that you guys posted this here. If you haven't heard Richardson's endorsement speech, you can find it on Obama's site. It was great. I loved the part where he discussed how Obama saved him by prompting him in a presidential debate instead of throwing him "under the bus."


Now, I hope that Richardson will go out and actively campaign for Obama in the remaining states and in the fall.



I believe that there can be successful black-brown coalitions!

I think the motorized roller blades are by far way better than these ugly clunky looking things. They may use gas, be a little bigger and heavier. BUT they can go up to 40mph or more and go 100 miles on a single tank of gas.
