It's a pleasant Saturday afternoon here in Manhattan. It's Labor Day weekend and I've been reading the news and blogs about the ridiculous pick of Sarah Palin as potential VP of the United States. Weather here is mid-70's and I should be going outside soon to enjoy the weather. Why am I not? I'm glued to news about Gustav.

Netroots Nation was pretty cool for me, having not attended Yearlykos before and having never stepped foot in Texas either. There were some great panels, excellent film screenings, valuable networking time and an overall vibe that should result in a big win for Obama this fall and other important wins on the local and state level.

I am convinced that by tomorrow night's evening news, the Obama campaign will have announced a number of new superdelegates. Plus I heard one of the folks on MSNBC say that his campaign will release his April fundraising numbers which are supposedly sizable. We all know, except the delusional, that Barack Obama will be our nominee.

I just watched the portion of 60 Minutes that featured Obama and Clinton. They were asked about chances going into Ohio and Texas (with a pretty good overview of Ohio) as well as some issues like the Obama Muslim false story, if Hillary will withdraw from the race if she loses Texas or Ohio, among other things.

I'm one more voice, one more vote for Barack Obama tomorrow morning. I'm here in New York City. I can take pride in the fact that I may have swayed a couple family members to vote the same -- after a couple dozen arguments, debates and many-an-article forwarding. I gave more money than I should have. I put up fliers yesterday. I did a little fundraising online. I blogged. I commented. I talked. I hosted debate parties. And tomorrow morning I'm getting up early and casting my vote for the next President, Barack Obama.

Well it ain't pretty in the global markets today. In a matter of hours, the NYSE will open. We will find out what is going to happen here in New York, but one thing rings true. The economy is at risk: recession is looming, and overseas markets are taking an enormous hit. This will effect everything. For without a solid economy, the mighty United States loses its power.

Kucinich Demands and Pays for NH Recount

From AP:

CONCORD, N.H. (AP) - Democrat Dennis Kucinich, who won less than 2 percent of the vote in the New Hampshire primary, said Thursday he wants a recount to ensure that all ballots in his party's contest were counted. The Ohio congressman cited "serious and credible reports, allegations and rumors" about the integrity of Tuesday results.
Deputy Secretary of State David Scanlan said Kucinich is entitled to a statewide recount. But, under New Hampshire law, Kucinich will have to pay for it. Scanlan said he had "every confidence" the results are accurate.
In a letter dated Thursday, Kucinich said he does not expect significant changes in his vote total, but wants assurance that "100 percent of the voters had 100 percent of their votes counted."

Sadness from the Assassination

For some reason the assassination of Benazir Bhutto today affected me. A real people's leader, promoting and fighting for true Democracy, her killing is truly sad. I guess this is life on Earth. Depressing and shocking events continue to happen each every year, really every day if you are receptive to it. I live in New York City and I can get upset virtually everyday by seeing the numbers of homeless stranded on the city streets. There's also the tough realities which also matter to me: animal cruelty, the destruction of the environment, disease, hunger, and all those other causes for which I feel frequent guilt about not helping to reduce. But staying on message here...

Eleven days from now, Iowans will gather all over the midwestern state to hold caucuses for their state's nomination. With polls dropping everyday, celebrities and newspapers endorsing candidates, and the media and its pundits making predictions, it still is a clear toss-up. Anything can happen eleven days from now.

I'm not sure what effect Iowa's big paper will have on any undecided voters, but there remains less than 24 hours before their endorsement is revealed. I've a feeling they're going to go with Senator Barack Obama (but maybe that's because I'm supporting him). Maybe they'll continue their support for Edwards as was done in 2004. Or maybe the three women editors will decide to choose Hillary. Maybe they'll pick one of the "second-tier" candidates to shake it up. No one knows until tomorrow but we can speculate.

Well folks, the tightening of the race has two sides in my opinion. First, is Hillary's decline. Second, is the rise of Obama. People tuned in (figuratively and literally) this fall and began to think for themselves. They began to know Obama, and they liked him. They took a closer look at Hillary (and listened) and started to get that not-so-fresh feeling.
