Here’s what I saw this morning on the news stands:
AM NY – a free paper as often catches the relevant:
Hillary’s confirmation only appears on an Albany paper and another one in Syracuse
2009.01.24
 |
New York Newsday captures the Caroline mess
while NY Post has the fuller picture
(it seems Obama had a gagle of reporters photographing him “working” – a lot of tabloids have that photo)…

Is he already calling HRC for advice?

I’m tired of the Kennedy drama detracting from interesting news like Hillary’s first day on the job.

LMAO, Teddy’s been ailing for a long time now. Mary Jo should have been so lucky to live so long!
Damn, but I’m sick and tired of political dynasties so good riddance to Her Highness’ senatorial aspirations. Bad enough New Yorkers have a president who will have to learn on the job; the least they deserve is a competent Senator to represent them!

Bingo! Ever since Teddy pushed his niece on us, he was – very publicly sick (sailing but not voting on FISA). The main argument for Caroline was that we need at least one Kennedy in the Senate at all time. So, now she changed her mind because he is sick?

While the circus continues, here are details of what’s going on where our business is concerned…
T.A.R.P, Recovery Plan, Term Limits Action…All Obscured Under the Cover of Media Hoopla

The ABQ Journal has that big pic of Obama at his desk on the front page…no mention of Clinton confirm, but a wire story on Teddy out of the hospital…no Caroline news….
But plenty on Richardson!
BTW, Iglesias of Rove-prosecutor scandal fame, is going to prosecute Gitmo detainees…

PS…it was Pelosi who didn’t allow the House to vote on the subpeonas authorized by the Judiciary Committee that would have gotten Rove to testify!!!

Boudicca,
You forgot we have an Acting Governor doing OJT as well…
My prediction is that we will hear little to nothing about HRC from here on out. Shadow Presidency on the Foreign Relations, while WJC’s people handle the domestic affairs and Obama grooms himself for his run for President of the North American Union.

Based on that shirtless pic in Hawaii, I think Obama’s already running for Mr. Universe on the assumption it must be a higher office.
At least Obama has handlers smart enough not to pose him with the telephone receiver upside down a la GWB.

I bet anyone here $1000 that Hillary’s SoS desk is stacked with papers, reports, etc.– unlike Obama’s nice clean desk which is obviously nothing more than the ultimate prop.

fox news says that Paterson has chosen Kristin Gillibrand. Plus CNN is reporting that both camps (kennedy and patterson) are calling each other liars

I actually watched local news last night for a change – first time in 16 years. It was fun.

Obama stated as much in one of the debates – he said he likes to delegate. I think I started my Jr.jr then.

Sister of Ye,
Wasn’t there a campaign photo of Obama early in the primaries holding the phone upside down?
I think it’s the media’s little inside joke that they can sell the people any pig in a poke.
