I just read this on the BOR, which linked to the Texas on the Potomac blog (link). Yikes! I hardly know what to say or think about this. This is more news than diary.

Libertarian presidential candidate wants to remove both John McCain and Barack Obama from the ballot in Texas and has filed suit to eliminate the major-party candidates from consideration by Texas voters.

His argument is that the Democratic and Republican parties technically violated state election law by failing to deliver written certification of their nominations by 5 p.m. 70 days before the Nov. 4 election.

So I was looking into Hillary's big state "strategy" and found the following quote from "a post-Super Tuesday memo from Mark Penn" at this link:

As super-delegates consider which candidate to support, they will be looking at which one candidate has a base and can win the big states, including the crucial swing constituencies. We believe the impressive wins in NY, CA, MA, MI, FL, NJ, AZ suggest that Hillary is the one who can motivate a strong turnout in November.

Follow me over the fold:

In last night's ABC Debacle of Brotherly Love, Obama was asked by an unemployed PA viewer why he refused to wear a flag pin:

NASH MCCABE, VOTER: Senator Obama, I have a question, and I want to know if you believe in the American flag. I am not questioning your patriotism, but all our servicemen, policemen and EMS wear the flag. I want to know why you don't.

Report from Precinct 152 (Central Austin)

Just returned from celebrating our successes achieved through spending all day at the Travis County Expo Center to vote for Obama delegates.

I know Kath25 made her report, but my comment on her thread was going to be quite long for a comment, so I thought I'd post this as my first diary instead....so go easy on me, OK?
