kudos

i should really be studying tonight..but i cant help to do a postmortem to a gigantic step Democrats have taken in IN and NC.
while my opposition to Clinton is clear, i must admit she has shown that she is a fighter despite many odds against her. her interview with Fox clearly showed that she […]

Obama has won!

Finally..after a long gruesome battle, Obama has won the Democratic nomination. The rules are clear: the candidate who has the most delegates win. Obama now commands an insurmountable and impossible to overtake lead in the pledged delegates. No politically realistic scenario can deny his being at the top of the ticket. Unless of course, he’s […]

she’s human??

while ignoring her flip-flops on Iraq war and NAFTA, the recent Bosnian trip scandal finally shed a glaring truth about the ‘person’ who will do almost anything politically convenient to win!
HRC finally admitted that she misspoke, but what a remark it was:

“So i made a mistake..that happens..It proves that I’m a human, which you know […]

diggin a deeper hole

remember HRC arguing on ’semantic’, pressing Obama to ‘reject and denounce’ Farrakhan’s comment at the Democratic debate? Well being double-standard like she always is, she at first, ‘regret’ that the racist remark was made by her supporter, Ferraro and more recently ‘reject’ the comment. we are waiting for her to ‘denounce’ it given that her […]

Not just another fight..

On the back of Wyoming’s victory, it’s important to understand why Democrats need to settle the nomination fight now.
Everyone knows that there are no ’sameness’ in this election cycle - nearly all old rules in politics are already thrown out of the door. From the fund raising phenomenon, participation of young voters, to the unpredictability […]

Lucifer concede please!

I gave my greatest respect for Lucifer’s campaign in defying the calls of many to let go of her dream. Yes, she won Ohio, Texas and Rhodes Island. Does she have a convincing case to go forward?
No.
Because simply the maths dont add up! Democratic Party is apportioning delegates based on candidates’ share of the primary/caucus […]

Yes We Can!

But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope.
Genius!

Merry Xmas….

Ho ho ho.. Merry Xmas everybody…
It has been quite a year and while the upcoming last days of 2007 will be spent at work, i’m savouring every moment now i’m back in Melbourne.
Pre-boxing day sale reconnaissance has been amazing with my first-time experience in the 24-hour Chadstone madness. You can complain all you want […]

RUDDslide

OMG….not only Johny has lost the govt, he has lost his own seat - creating history in itself…..this is by far the most satisfying election result in a long long long long time!!!
the hero is of course RUDD. 6% swing against the government, the biggest since Fraser’s ‘Nothing-Can-Save-The-Gov-General’ election…
i’m too excited…
it’s time and it’s […]

past vs future

when i received a postcard from a friend currently in Rome, i couldnt hide my excitement. but beneath it is a message that resonates within:
“It’s really a ‘closed’ & ‘aloof’ and ‘out-of-touch’ church scene. Clinging to the past and afraid of the future!”
Like so many facets of life, the Catholic Church proud of its […]
