Thank God for Glenn Beck

Mrs. Clinton received another impressive victory last evening in Kentucky, winning with a huge margin and continuing to expose Senator Obama's weaknesses. While he would go on to claim this election is over as he has won a majority of pledged delegates, Mrs. Clinton will surely remain competitive until at least May 31st-what could be the culmination of this seemingly eons long primary election.

May 31st-the day the Rules and Bylaws Committee of the DNC will convene to hear the cases of Florida and Michigan. If the seats are admitted would it completely alter the dynamic of the contest?

That question has become irrelevant; the media has all but written off HRC from any possible chance of winning the nomination for the simple reason that she is not as liberal as Senator Obama. The rhetoric Obama spews relentlessly at every stump speech is exactly in line with the suppression type ideals that the liberal media holds so dear.

So what does all this have to do with Mr. Glenn Beck?

Mr. Beck is one of a mere few professional and credible commentators within CNN. He is not afraid to tackle the larger issues which the rest of the electorate seems to be ignoring. As I mentioned earlier, suppression is a key theme within the Obama camp. This is because BHO is an elitist hypocrite who panders to his moveon.org liberal base and refuses to engage in real issues. Whenever an attack is hurled his way (he gives us so much material though) he turns his back on the mainstream saying he will not play the "politics of the past".

Just recently on Good Morning America BHO said the following:

"If they (GOP) think that they're going to try to make Michelle an issue in this campaign, they should be careful because that I find unacceptable, the notion that you should be attacking my wife or my family."

Excuse me Senator, but when an individual decides to step into the political arena and deliver stump speeches and town hall meetings, they are certainly open to ridicule and criticism. This man does not want to abide by the rules; and the list of topics which are verboten in this campaign is endless. Here are just a few things BHO has deemed not worthy of discussing...

~Michelle Obama"for the first time in my adult life I am proud of my country"
~Relationship with Tony Rezko (Chicago slum lord on trial for fraud and extortion charges)
~Having the wrong Reverend Wright as his mentor (A +20 year companionship)
~Association with Bill Ayers (Terrorist member of Weather Underground)
~His middle name
~Holding him accountable for serious foreign policy gaffes

Also it is commonly held knowledge that this man loves throwing his nearest and dearest under the bus doesn't he? Was it not BHO himself who said this just two short months ago:

"I can no more disown [Rev. Wright] than I can disown the black community. I can no more disown him than I can my white grandmother... a woman who once confessed her fear of black men who passed by her on the street, and who on more than one occasion has uttered racial or ethnic stereotypes that made me cringe."

This is a very disturbing trend; one which could hold severe repercussions. Mr. Beck has been referring to Senator Obama as 'Chairman Barack'.

For the sake of this country it is our obligation to the principles of democratic process to ensure these issues are thrust into the spotlight. We know this is a responsibility the liberal media will surely ignore.

Yet Another 'Last Stand'

Today voters in West Virginia will go to the polls to add another chapter to this already prolonged primary season. Pundits are labeling this as Mrs. Clinton's "last stand" (I think we've heard them say that before).

Irrefutably, Mrs. Clinton does need to win West Virginia by the huge margins preliminary polls have been showing. The average gap in most polls conducted in the Mountain State has her up by thirty points. One element of the West Virginia primary that goes in her favor is that unaffiliated and independent voters are allowed to endorse a candidate. Registered Republicans are barred from voting but the aforementioned groups, where Mrs. Clinton is gaining in popularity, may participate in the process.

Everyone knows that it is incredibly onerous for Mrs. Clinton to make the argument to the super delegates that she is the more electable of the two remaining dems. However by winning big today, she can exploit a weakness that has been plaguing the wrong Reverend Wright's protégé for months: his weakness in country areas. Rural voters are not saying "Yes We Can" to Senator Obama, they are lining up in droves to oppose his candidacy. Except for the states where there is a significant African American population (North Carolina's 22% for example) Senator Obama continuously comes up short. The task is even more daunting in Appalachia, where Obama's negatives are considerably higher than other regions of the country. Senator Clinton's argument to the DNC has to be that if she loses the nomination then this entire region would convert into 'McCainiacs' come November.

We are getting closer to the end and a growing number of prominent Democrats want to see a conclusion to this chaos by June. A big win tonight and another strong showing next week in Kentucky might provide her with the necessary momentum to last until convention time.

While the Maverick is certainly enjoying the show being put on by these two, he should not bask in it for too long.

Right now either candidate defeats him in a head-to-head match up.

Invincibility

That is the most accurate characterization of Barack Obama's campaign.

As of this writing, he is holding nearly a twenty point lead in North Carolina and is within five points of Mrs. Clinton in Indiana (In the interests of full disclosure, the state had previously been called for her but is now listed as "too close to call". Either way, very bad news for Hillary's team).

Obama's is a campaign that has been able to shake off scandals and controversies which would have surely dismantled a lesser candidate; yet the "Yes We Can" mantra pioneers on.

Senator Obama is a formidable opponent. The GOP had better be ready to throw everything in their arsenal at him come November.

But not so fast Senator: regardless of the disappointment tonight's contests inevitably bring Mrs. Clinton, the primary season has not yet ended. She will not bow out Wednesday morning in a show of party solidarity the way in which the honorable Governor Romney did nearly three months ago. She will instead relentlessly persist the Democrat Party leadership resolve the gridlock occurring in Michigan and Florida before deciding to get out of the ring.

As I wrote in this very column on February 20th "...never underestimate the lengths the Clinton Machine will go to when it comes to stealing an election".

Those words certainly hold true today.

Advantage: Hillary

Mrs. Clinton's performance in a two-part interview on The O'Reilly Factor was masterful.

She looked completely at ease; a stark contrast to Senator Obama who has been quite defensive as of late. She was comfortable, articulate, and seated across from Mr. O'Reilly, actually came off as a warm individual.

Her answers were brave and adhered to the rules of being inside the "No Spin Zone". Bill confronted her on the issue of sanctuary cities and she stood true to her platform of not cleaning them out; citing instead that it is more important for illegal immigrants to report crimes rather than having the authorities check their visas.

The rogue nation of Iran even denounced her yesterday after her rather intrepid and Reagan-esque remark that if provoked the United States could "obliterate Iran". (This is another example of how unpredictable this election cycle has been; I just compared a member of the Clinton clan to the father of modern conservatism)

In any event the inexperienced politician from Illinois has a lot to fear at this moment. He has lost a sizable lead in North Carolina, a state he was favored to win handedly. And the polls in Indiana are looking pretty grim as well.

Senator Clinton courageously accepted Bill's invitation for an interview. Senator McCain is appearing on Mr. O's program next week; yet Obama has remained conspicuously silent.

What else is the wrong Reverend Wright's protégé hiding?

The Pendulum Swings Again

Hillary Clinton's biggest supporter may in fact be the wrong Reverend Wright. In the last several days this paltry excuse for a preacher has set upon a personal vendetta to destroy Senator Obama's candidacy; delivering barn-burning stump speeches that ensure to keep his name on the front pages.

Now the reverend justifies his glorified media tour as nothing more than defending his name as well as the honor of his church. A common line he delivers in his interviews is regards to how many homeless individuals have benefited from contributions to the church-whether it be from soup kitchens or clothing drives. But for a man as articulate as Wright can be at times, he is noticeably tacit when it comes to addressing the million dollar mansion the church is building him.

To add more dismay to a struggling Obama campaign, the always entertaining Al Sharpton has been blasting the Senator for his reaction to the Sean Bell verdict in New York. The New York Post today has Sharpton accusing Obama of attempting to "grandstand in front of white people".

The African American community is too complex, and too diverse to attribute all of its beliefs and ideologies onto a select few individuals. However, the mainstream American electorate will flock en masse towards Senators Clinton and McCain if they fear an Afro-Centric ideology in the White House.

And just how serious is Mrs. Clinton about her chances of winning this chaotic primary? Well Wednesday night she will be appearing on the Gospel According to William (Known as The O'Reilly Factor to non-believers) for the very first time.

Be sure to Tivo this one.

Clinton News Network Running Out Of News

While we are about two hours away from polling places closing in Pennsylvania, CNN had a story banner at the bottom of the screen entitled "White Men: Racist or Sexist?"

Now I have known for years that this network lacks both ethics and professionalism but this might be a new low. Nora Ephron is a Hollywood writer (When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle) who also happens to be quite an active liberal. Activism is perfectly acceptable but I have a problem with CNN passing off a nonsensical article published on the Huffington Post website (run by another liberal crackpot) as legitimate news and to give it actual airtime and debate is laughable.

This network's primary objective is to deliver a headline without any expansion of the substance. This is a network that exists solely for shock value and should not be regarded as a bona fide news outlet. They will go to great lengths to avoid analyzing a story because facts are irrelevant to them in the race for higher ratings.

They could not accept that Caucasian males potentially may cast their vote in favor of McCain so they lead with a story about a C-list celebrity and her incompetent ramblings on a far-left blog. In the very article they chose to report, Nora Ephron actually contends that these men are attracted to the Maverick "particularly because of the Torture Thing." I would hardly categorize spending five and a half grueling years of abuse and maltreatment in the Hanoi Hilton as "the Torture Thing".

CNN's authenticity ought to be called into question more often.

And as for Ms. Ephron; stick to the screenplays sweetheart.

Obama's Fatal Slip-Up

In Pennsylvania today, Senator Obama was addressing a crowd trying to gain any last second momentum ahead of Tuesday's crucial primary. The reception was warm and optimistic until the Senator drastically diverged from not only the message of his campaign but essentially the entire liberal strategy for November.

The stress of campaigning in such a battle-ground state surely affected his reflexes otherwise I do not believe he would have allowed such a gaffe. Politicos are saying a win is not enough for Mrs. Clinton, it needs to be a blowout. The issue of elect ability in the general election is one of the most constant themes in her White House bid. Senator Clinton alleges Obama does not have the wide-ranging appeal she possesses and would potentially keep the GOP in power. She certainly has evidence to support her theory: Senator Obama is just now starting to recover from his "bitter" insult to middle Americans.

But last week's infamous remark is about to be replaced by the fatal line uttered today in Reading, Pennsylvania. Obama said "Either Democrat would be better than John McCain. And all three of us would be better than George Bush."

The liberal community has branded John McCain as some sort of Bush clone, alleging a campaign victory for the Maverick would result in a third Bush term.

And now the front-runner for that party's nomination has publicly acknowledged that there are very distinguishable contrasts between the two.

We've had a few solid days since Barack Obama's latest controversy. This will surely shake things up again.
