Over the weekend we got an email from our friend in Wisconsin asking, "Why does Washington have a caucus and a primary? I don't get it. How does this work?" more ›

As a brain-dead "undecided," we were naturally curious when we heard the Implicit Association Test people had set up a Presidential Candidates Test. It takes about 10 minutes, and purports to measure your neurological affinity for Clinton, Obama, Huckabee, and McCain (or little pictures of them). more ›

Kim: I tried for about five minutes after Iowa to convince myself I could and would get behind an Obama candidacy. I will vote for whomever earns the Democratic nomination, but I just honestly don’t get what the big deal is about Obama. I’ve been a Hillary gal from the beginning, and that hasn’t changed. The best thing I can say about Obama is that he makes inspiring speeches, that make me feel good about myself in a “I can do it!” sort of way. Like a pep talk before a ballet performance (sorry, yall, never played sports). But, I don’t think that’s enough. I think it’s important to be lifted up, but if you’re then left hanging, you just fall back down. His proposals and plans are either bad, or are copies of Hillary and John Edwards’. I really, really hope he doesn’t get the nomination, because I’m so happy to be excited about an election cycle and to feel optimistic about it; and I think I would hate to lose that feeling of excitement about real long-lasting transformation. I’m sure his supporters will jump on me for that since he’s supposed to be the change candidate, but I’m not buying it. Hillary has great plans, she has alliances and friends on both sides of the aisle (important for getting things through congress) and I don’t doubt for a second that she gets the weight and breadth of everything that comes across a president’s desk. John Edwards looks great on paper, but I just don’t like him. more ›

Complete with CES laugh track. Kind of funny, but maybe not worth the laughs it gets... Hey, if Bill were staring you in the face while you were watching this you'd laugh too. more ›

We Washingtonians don't get our chance to caucus until February 9th, and it was always unlikely that the Democratic nomination was going to be in doubt by then. more ›

The oddest thing about watching last night's Iowa caucus coverage along with the Sonics game is that we had one TV tuned to TNT, and one TV tuned to CNN--and Chuck Norris was on the latter one. more ›

No. But that doesn't make this factoid from a political campaign article in today's any less disturbing: more ›
