Understanding the Hillary Hate

As D and I watched the Florida returns come in Tuesday night, after a while D looked at me and said, “why do these people hate Hillary so much?”  I said, “Good question.” Everything that came out of their mouths was a slap in her face. While Wolf Blitzer praised McCain’s close win over Romney as [...]

You Dirty Liberal

Ahhh. Just when we thought things were so bad in Democrat land, I clicked on a MSM site to see Romney and McCain are now calling each other 'dirty liberals." Now, that's more like it. I'm feeling a little better about myself already. Because God forbid we have a leader that is A damn 'dirty [...]

What about these numbers? And Bill.

First of all, congrats to Obama. It's been a rough week in SC but we've all survived…as we will. Dems will be strong. Go Dems. Woohoo. But, what's up with the numbers? I just tallied the numbers on Goupstate and saw that 532,227 people voted today with 99% of the precincts reporting. That's more that turned out in [...]

Seeding Spartanburg is 3!

So the 'ole blog turned 3 today. Is it a birthday or an anniversary? I'm not sure considering it has been like a baby to me at times and something I was married to at other times. Regardless, it's just hard to believe it's been 3 years. Talk about the journey. I've come a long [...]

It’s Almost Over

So what have I realized this week? Besides the fact that I’m living in a dream world if I don’t think politics are dirty? Because…oh…they are. And I’m starting to see, in what I call one of my many “Primary Colors” moments of realization that I need to get a clue. [If you haven't watched that [...]

What’s going to be kinda funny…

is when Fred Thompson comes out and endorses John McCain. What a laugh that will be. Because that's been the 'talk' the whole time. That obviously many of Thompson's SC supporters missed (y'all should venture out from FoxNews from time to time and stop simply assuming that it is the Democrats that are your 'only' enemy). I frequently listen to [...]

Enjoy it South Carolina…

It's almost over. The polls for the SC GOP primary just closed and the results are coming in. It's exciting. But, once the SC Dem primary is over this time next week. Bye, bye South Carolina. We move back into non-existence because dangit…we're just RED. And Republicans or Democrats won't waste another second wasting any [...]

Talk to NPR’s Marketplace

I got an email in my box today from NPR's Marketplace. I listen to Scott Jagow every morning and did back when he was at the Charlotte NPR as well…he assists in giving me my morning smart fix. When I'm hungover or the kids have kept me up all night and my brain is slow [...]

The Tammy Poll

So last night, J and I were doing our traditional ‘Girls Night’ at Delaney’s when a couple of beers into the evening I said, “I’m going to poll these people and see who they are voting for in the upcoming primaries.” J gave me his “you are a damn nut” look. I get that a [...]

Thinking about it all

This past week has mostly been about defending the Democratic Party for me. I remain undecided although I must say I am leaning in a way that I doubt will change at this point. I never imagined that I would spend the weeks before the Primary defending the Democratic Party as a whole…but I have [...]
