Just a note… Up early, for an early flight this morning. I’ve also changed things so that email alerts don’t go out in the future for political posts, since those might be the most frequent topic for the next few months…
Barack Obama tried yesterday to regain his footing amidst a growing firestorm over [...]
At a private fundraiser in San Francisco last Sunday, Barack Obama said that people in rural Pennsylvania become “bitter [and] cling to guns or religion” because of economic problems and poor representation in Washington. The Associated Press is reporting on the story, which was first covered by The Huffington Post.
Hillary Clinton’s response: “‘Well, that’s [...]
What a day. All I can say is, wow. Wow.
It’s well after midnight, and I need to get some sleep, but I wanted to jot down a few things before I head to bed.
