OK

This makes me want to pull every last strand of hair out of my head. If there was ever a case of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory this has to be up there:  On election eve, I was watching Telemundo (I don't speak Spanish, but I was browsing...

OMG I’m dying!!! This HuffPost commenter had the most hilarious slap down of Drumpf for his blaming of protestors for violence at his rallies:  Michael Newel Trump should realize: When you have one stubby little finger pointed at the prote

While I am encouraged by the President's latest poll numbers, I simply can't breath a sigh of relief until this thing is over. This is the first Presidential election to happen post Citizens United, ...

I don’t think we fully appreciate just how lucky we are to have this man in our party. In terms of political talent, President Obama is like a blue diamond. Democrats were demoralized under George W. Bush. Today we are on top of the world thanks —...

There are more Democrats than Republicans in America, but Republicans control all branches of government today primarily because of these two reasons: 1. Republicans are incredibly adept at cheating — Republicans are ruthless and immoral when it...

I was so pissed by the Benghazi witch hunt against Hillary last year, I started a petition on change.org just to vent my feelings against Congressional Republicans. To my surprise the petition garnere

According to Wolf Blitzer, poll was conducted among registered voters. Just announced live on CNN.

This was long in coming:  March 15, and Daily Kos transition to General Election footing Thank you Markos!  United we stand. Democrats 2016!! 

When someone hates you because of who you are, there is virtually nothing you can do to make them like you. President Obama came into office naively believing he could win over the hearts of Republicans by bending over backwards and placating them at...

Happy Birthday Hillary Clinton! 68 years of solid experience for America. You will get my FIRST EVER vote in a U.S. Election next year. I can't wait to pull the lever for you! Here's an idea for a ...

Just as they confirmed Biden's victory last week, Reuters have confirmed a strong victory for Obama in his second debate against Rmoney. More over the jump...

Now this is real treasonous. You have to read this yourself to believe it. Trump is in open collusion with the Russians. He is proudly embracing his status as a puppet of Vladimir Putin.  The New York Times: DORAL, Fla. — Donald J. Trump said...

The Huffington Post:  President Barack Obama is enjoying some of the highest ratings of his second term in office. A new Gallop Poll out on Thursday shows that 50 percent of Americans surveyed approve of the job he's doing in office -- his highest

In all the dramatic talk about minting Platinum coins or invoking the 14th Amendment if House Republicans make good on their threat to sabotage America by not raising the debt ceiling, how come no ...

There is nothing sweeter than Democratic love: In unusually candid remarks, President Obama privately told a group of Democratic donors last Friday that Senator Bernie Sanders is nearing the point where his campaign against Hillary Clinton wil

Hillary caught me by surprise with this. Her closing statement capped another stellar debate performance. I just love how quick she is on her feet. Who could have thought of a more timely and rel

The left still lacks a reliable voice in the mainstream media. While MSNBC no doubt has progressive pundits in its prime-time lineup, I wouldn't necessarily classify them as a reliably liberal ...

It’s a concept that has been floated by some on the left, but it’s often discussed in the context of a long-shot progressive fantasy. However, at a campaign event today in Deocorah, Iowa, Hillary

The Sanders revolution limps along for another day, but it will not recover from its wounds. The win in Michigan is like a shot of morphine to mask the pain, but it does not cure the ailment. According to Dr. Aritmetic: the prognosis is dire. A painf

This has gotten to a point where Democrats need to call this guy out. This dude is fucking ridiculous. There is nothing wrong with been a passionate Bernie supporter, but H.A. Goodman’s continued vitr

Are you fucking kidding me? Are people on Daily Kos  seriously complaining about Republicans and their racist-xenophobic-misogynistic short-fingered-vulgarian Frontrunner been attacked?  This is precisely why I come to this site. As a partisan...

I felt a little under the weather after my fantasy Democratic ticket for November: Clinton-Castro, seemed increasingly unlikely to become reality. I posted a diary about this, and in comments I keep hearing this name coming up as an alternative:...

A cunning strategist at the GOP-TP-DarkMoney coalition rubs his hands with glee at the prospect of facing an underfunded Bernie revolutionary experiment candidacy in the general. "This is so ...

Something about the firebombing of the GOP office in North Carolina doesn’t sit right with me. From the moment I heard the news, I found it a bit odd. The more I dig into the details, the more my suspicions are confirmed. Everything around this event...

The Democratic Party is like a grieving widow right now. We are in a very vulnerable emotional state following Hillary’s shock loss to Trump. People are looking for an out… something to help relieve the pain. Some Democrats have decided that pushing...

From Politico: Forget the public national polls showing Mitt Romney pulling even with Barack Obama among women, according to senior Obama advisers steeped in internal data: Obama enjoys a “...

Shouting “No More Wars” at veterans onstage at the Democratic Convention is not only idiotic, it’s moronic. Our soldiers don’t make the decision to go to war. These men and women put their lives on the line to serve our country. Supporting the...

The writing is on the wall for the Sanders Revolution — regardless of what happens in New Hampshire tonight. Let he who hath eyes to see take heed.

This is no ordinary "Souls to the Polls" GOTV effort. Here is what Reuters had to say: This weekend's voting drive carries special importance as it is the only Sunday included in the state's ...

Already confirming what we know. I know this is not really a diary but I have to get this out there a.s.a.p. From Reuters: The energetic Biden claimed a seven-point victory - 42 percent to 35 ...

There is real evil in this world. One of my favorite channels on television is Investigation Discovery -- more commonly known as ID. Watching the various crime series on ID has really opened my eyes ...

I hope not. I find the prospect of a Clinton-Castro ticket very exciting. I can hardly think of a better dream ticket for Democrats going into November (well perhaps with the exception of Clinton-Warren which is just as exciting). That is why I felt...

First a little background on myself: I am a 27 year old black male. I've always been interested in politics, but I've never actually voted. The reason I've never voted is not due to apathy, it's ...

I am very excited about this vote, so much so that I posted this ringing endorsement of Hillary on my Facebook page:  Today, April 19th, I will be casting my very first vote in a US Election. I will be voting for Hillary Rodham Clinton in the...

I wanted someone more exciting, but I’ll accept her choice. I hope Kaine doesn’t depress enthusiasm among Sanders supporters too much. I already see them complaining online. We need a landslide victory in November, not just a win.

I happen to love Debbie and I’m proud to say it. Bernie Sanders is determined to destroy the Democratic Party. She is the only one brave enough to stand up to him. The overwhelmingly majority of Democrats have rejected Bernie and chosen Hillary....

This is one of the most epic comments I’ve ever read anywhere online. It was posted by user soxared040713 over at the New York Times in response to an Op-Ed by David Brooks rationalizing the collapse of his beloved Republican Party.  In this one comm

I woke up to an email alert from Hillary’s campaign. I usually ignore these emails because I get bombarded with them on a daily basis and they’re usually soliciting donations. However, I am glad I took the time to read this one. It certainly made my...

There is an anti-establishment wave sweeping across the American political landscape. This is undeniable. It has captivated both parties. On the GOP side, the establishment has been nearly decimated.

Did anyone else hear that? I'm a guy but it hits me personally. I can only imagine how a woman feels to hear those words uttered live on national television towards someone who is on the brink of breaking the ultimate glass ceiling. 

I'm black and I'm an ardent Hillary supporter as you all know, but this bullshit has got to stop. #Black Lives Mater, you made your point at Netroots Nation. This tactic of targeting and shouting ...

There is a reason why Republicans hate Hillary Clinton. She is an uppity woman who doesn't 'know her place'. She refuses to back down and SHE ALWAYS FIGHTS BACK! Somehow she finds a way to survive ...

As a black American, I feel compelled to rebut this diary by Crashing Vor. While I believe the diarist is well-intentioned and makes a solid argument, I strongly disagree with his/her thesis that racism doesn’t underpin the unprecedented Republican hate a

I posted this over on my Facebook page and I'd like to share it here: After mourning Trump's victory, I took the opportunity to think things through and I suddenly saw a big silver lining for Democrats. Politics is like a game of chess. Trump's...
