On Wednesday’s CBS Early Show, co-host Harry Smith talked with former vice presidential candidate, and Hillary Clinton supporter, Geraldine Ferraro about Barack Obama’s VP pick: "And we have a special guest in the studio with us this morning. Geraldine Ferraro was the vice presidential running mate...for Walter Mondale just a couple of years ago...We'll see if Geraldine has some insight for us this...
from Jim Matheson of the Edmonton Journal, Former Oilers SportsNet colour commentator Ray Ferraro is going to work for TSN, replacing Glen Healy, who took a paying position with the NHL Players Association.

You're so right about Ridge, K-Lo. A pro-choice Catholic is always the very worst kind of pro-choicer to put on a national ticket. Kerry and Ferraro demonstrated why: The actions (or even the inactions) of the hierarchy always generate lots of talk. It is inescapable.

I think every other state is pretty much a foregone conclusion either for Obama or McCain, and I include Missouri in that, which will go McCain. If there’s a possibility of any of those states being dislodged in either direction, I [...]
If only McCain had see Obama's grassroot in action in those videos, he would probably be peeing in his pants right now. I say at least a 15% Majority win for Obama.
This is what instantly same into my mind when I read this story: Clintons Still Want To Kill Caucuses: The Latest Round The Clintons hate the caucus system, and they want to see it die.
