Cheney Predictions

Does anyone care to make a prediction or two on how many timesCheney attacks John Kerry? I mean this team of positive candidate's has to show how positive and optimistic they are and how great their plans are by going negative on Kerry.

Lisa Allen: Victim and Pawn?

Lisa Allen, local judge and Mike Allen's wife has spoken out on her husband's affair. Her views were understandable about what her husband did to her, but what I seem to miss is her rage that Allen lied to her twice. She found out about the affair, Allen said it was over, but it did not end. When did she find out it did not end? The article paints the other woman as the one Lisa Allen blames, not so much Mike. That simple fact sounds like she made this PR run to help her husband's defense against Collins. That I think makes her a pawn. Did Mike Allen put her up to the PR tour?

Flip-Flopping

I guess George believed we could win a war on terrorism before he believed we could not win a war on terrorism, but now he is back to believing we can win a war on terrorism.

GOP Convention Follies

So far we have gotten lots and lots of attacks on Kerry from the GOP speakers. Well, I guess the positive party sees attacking someone as a civil thing to do. Please remind the GOP that if they are going to claim to be the positive party that they might want to live up to it.

Also Rudy Giuliani put his foot in his mouth:

"That is what the Republican Party does best when we are at our best, we extend freedom."

Well, except if you are a homosexual, an atheist, a woman, an immigrant, a Muslim, or poor. Well, on second thought you are free to be poor all you want, just don't expect a society that will help you, unless you give yourself over to a religious group.

Republicans extend freedom as long as you comply with their dogma. Be a non-conformists and you might as well be from France in their eyes.

The funny part is that a large number of Conservative Republicans would not disagree with me that much on what they stand for. Some will, and do so very badly, but far to many feel otherwise.

And Now The Other Shoe

Steve Fritsch at the Blue Chip Review is reporting that two other women are claiming to have been sexually harassed by Mike Allen. One of the women even works for a local U.S. Congressman.

Please keep an important fact in mind: Steve is a Republican, so this is not out of left field. His sources are likely very direct.

When this hits the mainstream press, will anyone care to start a Mike Allen resignation countdown clock?

Still No Plugs For Local Bloggers

I guess Ray still sees us as small fish.

Will Allen Resign?

The drum beat is starting to strengthen. All we need now is a local version of Barry Goldwater to tell Mike he needs to step down. What happens if he does? What would happen come November's election?
