[Full Disclosure: After voting in the primary, I dropped my Democratic Party registration in 2008, over the party's unwillingness to step in and stop some ugly early attacks from the Clinton campaign on Barack Obama. Likewise, I believe that the Clinton campaign's attacks over the Auto Bailout vote...

If the primaries keep going the way they've been going, Hillary Clinton will be the Democratic nominee, in 2016. But, is it time for Bernie Sanders to start to think about dropping out? The answer is yes and no.

Looking ahead the next couple of weeks, there are...

Watching the D.C. establishment try to get GOP base voters back on the reservation is a lot like watching a parent trying to convince a child who is eating ice cream to take a bite of healthful food.

"How about carrots, huh? You love carrots, don't you? Take a bite...

Recovering a legacy is no easy feat. Just ask Al Gore.

The most active Vice President in history, at that point, Al Gore was the point person on some of the Clinton administration's most successful efforts, like Reinventing Government, to pushing through some of its more controversial...

After the 294th mass shooting of 2015 in America, President Obama pointed out the obvious yesterday.

"What's become routine, of course, is the response of those who oppose any kind of common-sense gun legislation. Right now, I can imagine the press releases being cranked out. 'We need more...

Another day, another person proves that Carly Fiorina didn't see the video that she claims she saw. What's interesting is that, this time, it is the person who is responsible for collecting the very footage that Fiorina claims she viewed.

As first reported by Time's Michael Scherer, Gregg Cunningham, the...

Late last week and over the weekend, Carly Fiorina was caught telling the same lie to FOX News' Sean Hannity, and Chris Wallace. On their shows, Fiorina maintained that even though Hewlett Packard goods were sold in Iran while she was CEO of the company, the SEC had...

Carly Fiorina has a big problem with the truth. More specifically, she has a problem with embellishing the truth, in a manner very reminiscent of disgraced NBC anchor Brian Williams.

On Friday, conservative radio host Sean Hannity asked Fiorina to explain stories that Hewlett-Packard violated in the Iran embargo, by...

As a native Philadelphian, there was something in the "wudder" there which makes me still relate everything in the world to the Rocky saga. And, so, as I look at the polling landscape in the presidential race, I can't help but think it's time for President Obama's campaign to switch...

Tall, skinny and sporting a beard with shaggy hair, 31 year-old comedian Lee Camp resembles many of the ubiquitous young comics in the New York City comedy scene, today. But, Camp's jokes are less about Generation-Y's latest interest like Spotify, and more an unleashing of his anger at...

If now isn't the time for an independent investigative body to be set up by the NCAA to monitor all of its member schools, when is?

The tragedy of the alleged raping and molesting of young boys at the hands of a Penn State Football coach -- and the aftermath...

I've always had a soft spot in my heart for Saturday Night Live. From the time I was a toddler, I watched the show. In 5th grade, for a class project, I did a fake ad for "Jimmy Peanut Butter," impersonating Dan Aykroyd impersonating Jimmy Carter. If that wasn't enough...

I have one question for the White House: Who, exactly, are you going to gain support with by enacting a spending freeze that isn't exactly a spending freeze?

• Liberals balk because it sets limits on what could be spent on important programs, while letting bloated budgets like...

Think about it -- you're at the ripe old age of 30, and you might not be able to do the job you love to do anymore. The job that everyone said you wouldn't really succeed at. The job you literally gave blood, sweat and tears to, and proved the...

JOHNNY FONTAINE: I don't know what to do... I don't know what to do...
VITO CORLEONE: YOU CAN ACT LIKE A MAN! What's the matter with you?! Is this how you turned out? A Hollywood finocchio that ah cries like a woman? Boo hoo hoo, what can I do...

In the latest round of polling, President Obama seems to have finally hit a wall. As the excitement of his inauguration fades away, as does the relief that George W. Bush is no longer in the White House, the President's finding out what it's like to own the nation's problems....

The conservative mantra, for as far back as anyone can recall, is that the government can do no right, and the private sector can do no wrong, thanks to market principles of competition. "Government isn't the solution to our problem - Government is the problem," declared Ronald Reagan.

Well, that...

The Republican Party is in shambles.

Yeah, I know. That's been kind of obvious for a while. But never was it crystallized more than in the two stories running today showing the party to be completely rudderless.

First, Adam Nagourney in the New York Times reports:

A party and...

With it all but official that NBC will choose David Gregory as the new moderator of Meet the Press, comes a tremendous opportunity to update the show, and continue to lead the field of Sunday programs. Or, the show could continue doing what it has done since Tim Russert...

Let me start this post by saying I'm no Rahm Emanuel fan. I don't like his vicious hatred of Howard Dean and the 50-state strategy (which I helped kick start back in the '04 election). I don't like how he's stared down the base sometimes. He's not a guy I...
