HRC -2012 NY Senate - Primary Challenger- Count on it

Sat Apr 19, 2008 at 10:41:47 AM PDT

When bitter-to-the-end Hillary Rodham Clinton returns to her day job I hope she understands the enormity of the firestorm she has set off amongst Progressive Democrats this primary season and that it will last and continue to grow. Add yesterday’s revelations and believe me Hillary has a future opponent in all of us that will grow even larger - haunt her for a very long time to come and never go away. Her actions will have consequences for her that lead directly to her 2012 New York Senate re-election campaign.

2006 CA Race > Angelides/Beatty for Gov/Lt.Gov ?

Sat Nov 12, 2005 at 10:03:02 AM PDT

Just read a great piece from Nathan Gardels over at the Huffington Post.

A Phil Angelides/Warren Beatty combo would be the best ticket for California's future.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/...

Nathan Gardels is editor-in-chief of NPQ, the journal of social and political thought published by Los Angeles Times Syndicate/Tribune Media, which has 35 million readers in 15 languages through scores of the world's top papers. Gardels has numerous fellowships and is a well known lecturer.

See discussion and poll on the flip-side. Who do you like in 2006 California Governors Race?

I found his thoughts on not only how to defeat Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2006 very interesting but more so his proposed political union of a Phil Angelidies and Warren Beatty as just the ticket California needs to become once again the top progressive state in the U.S.

DSM Town Hall Meeting - Oakland, CA

MY FIRST DIARY - be kind please. Not a political pro or major activist by any means here...

Just got back from this event today and not sure if any comments about it have been posted yet.

I am sure that there were many Bay Area Kossacks in attendance. I am not sure what capacity is at the theatre - HUGE crowd - it was standing room only. Great TV/Media coverage. Can't wait to see it tonite. Here is what happened - on the flip side...
