SharonCobb (Free subscription) | 10/20/2008
VICE PRESIDENTS: THEY OFTEN BECOME PRESIDENTS by Bobby Braddock, contributor to SharonCobb.com. With so many good candidates in the 2008 presidential primaries, Democrats had a tough choice to make.

No Way, No How, Is Sarah Palin One Of Us.
SharonCobb (Free subscription) | 09/15/2008
By:Bobby Braddock , contributor to SharonCobb.com. One of the most phenomenal things I've ever seen on TV is the maniacal excitement of those in the American heartland who say they're for Sarah Palin because they can identify with her, that she's "one of us" or "just like me." Folks, I don't want a president who's just like me, God only knows what I would do in a world crisis. Is this what reality...

Our Response To Sarah Palin's Interview
SharonCobb (Free subscription) | 09/12/2008
Response to Sarah Palin's Interview by contributor to SharonCobb.com, Bobby Braddock . No, Sarah Palin. We don't want to go to war with Russia. Attacking a small country like Iraq has brought us enough misery; why would we want to go to war with a nation that has enough missiles to blow us to kingdom come? Even though Georgia provoked an attack from Russia with our blessing (we don't know when to quit),...

Happy Birthday Bobby Braddock!!
SharonCobb (Free subscription) | 08/05/2008
Country Music's best living songwriter is ** today. I'm not putting his age down because he looks and acts about 20 years younger than what his birth certificate says. Before I moved to Nashville in 1984 to pursue my music career, I had made up my mind to meet Bobby Braddock. I had studied his work, much like a thesis, although it quickly became apparent to me that I would no sooner be the next Braddock...

Some Of The Absolutes About Super Tuesday
SharonCobb (Free subscription) | 02/06/2008
Here are some absolutes: By guest writer: Bobby Braddock 1 When cable news says the race is still competitive in a certain state, they mean nobody is pulling 90% and hopefully you'll think it's a horse race and stay tuned. 2 When reading a presidential poll, to get an accurate reading, subtract three points from Barack Obama and add those points to his opponent. 3 Or better yet, polls don't mean shit....

Junior High Memento: George Jones' He Stopped Loving Her Today
CB Music (Free subscription) | 11/25/2007
For two and half decades, George Jones and his aged, heartbroken voice ruled the charts, but despite amassing one hundred and forty-three Top 40 hits, the musician was broke and battling both cocaine and the bottle by 1980. Three wives had left him, and music executives refused to book him, famously dubbing him No-Show Jones.' Than a three minute and nineteen second tear-jerker changed it all

Don't Miss One Of Country Music's All Time Great Songwriters This Saturday At The Country Music Hall Of Fame
SharonCobb (Free subscription) | 09/12/2007
When I moved to Nashville in the mid 80s, there was one songwriter I HAD to meet, and that was Bobby Braddock. Our first meeting was at Walgreens and was one of the funniest moments of my life. When you go see Bobby on Saturday, ask him how we met and why it was so funny. As a songwriter, I used to study his songs like a thesis. 'He Stopped Loving Her Today' is consistently voted the best country song...
