He is the new face of the Anti-War Movement. His appearance is timely, coming at the dark hour that ushers in new NATO policies of nuclear first-strikes. His advent is heralded by plans to increase the size of our standing army. And the new face of the Anti-War movement greets the latest [...]

I was not expecting my favorite of the three candidates on the Democrat side to drop out so soon, I really thought he’d go through Super Tuesday at least. I was wrong, though, and the former senator plans to announce his plans to drop out at 1PM EST today.

Now the question [...]

It is looking like the Democrats will have a brokered convention this August, too. The Republicans, of course, will probably have one so long as Romney keeps up some form of momentum.
The candidate John Edwards needs a brokered convention. He comes in a modest third in most of the races so far, and is expecting [...]

Barack Obama won today’s South Carolina primary by a large margin, managing 55% of the Democrat votes. This is bad news for Senator Clinton, as Obama has pulled further ahead in the delegate count. Meanwhile, John Edwards has yet to do better than a 3rd place finish. Why does he persevere? [...]

According to the latest polls, Democrat Presidential hopeful Barack Obama is 13 points ahead of rival Hillary Clinton.  Meanwhile, Edwards appears to be catching up to Clinton, possibly even getting close to second place.

At 3:48 PM CST, Romney is at 52.65%, while Ron Paul is at 13% and McCain at 12.9%. The others are far enough behind that they probably do not pose a threat to the top three. Only 38% of the caucus votes have been counted, but I have been watching the reports come in for [...]

Looking at a new Nevada poll, the former senator hit 27 percent. I am no fan of John Edwards but I dislike both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama and I have a little hope that Edwards would be the nominee in the end.

Former vice presidential candidate John Edwards has spent more time in South Carolina than Obama or Clinton in the past month. He won the state in the 2004 Democratic primaries. Could John Edwards win it again? It’s a possibility, but a long shot, I think.
Edwards is determined to make a stand here, but he said [...]
