By Robert Barnes PHILADELPHIA -- All is sweetness and light these days between Barack Obama and Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell, a staunch supporter of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton during the Democratic Primaries. So close now that they can tease? At a fundraiser Friday night, Rendell said there was only one problem with the slender senator from Illinois. "Perhaps the only thing I don't like about him is, he's too thin," Mr. Rendell said, and added that a daily cheesesteak from Pat's is what Obama needs. "A cheesesteak, once a day," Obama said when he took the microphone, "and I will have the pleasure of looking like Ed Rendell." They kid because they love. ...

IF you think way back to the start of this marathon campaign, back when it seemed preposterous that any black man could be a serious presidential contender, then you remember the biggest fear about Barack Obama: a crazy person might take a shot at him. Some voters told reporters that they didn't want Obama to run, let alone win, should his very presence unleash the demons who have stalked America from Lincoln to King. After consultation with Congress, Michael Chertoff, the homeland security secretary, gave Obama a Secret Service detail earlier than any presidential candidate in our history -- in May 2007, some eight months before the first Democratic Primaries.

Last December, the Maryland Board of Elections reinstated policy allowing 17-year-olds who would turn 18 before the November general election to cast ballots in the Democratic or Republican Primaries of February. Those kids had to register by Jan. 22. A lot of them did and -- to no one's surprise -- the majority registered with the Democratic Party. The numbers have been not widely reported, but here they are: Of the 15,235 17-year-olds who registered, 8,593 signed up as Democrats, 2,604 did not pick a party affiliation and another 4,038 signed up as Republicans or other affiliations. There has been a lot more registration since then among the 17- and 18-year-olds. Check out today's column for more. ... Source: tpmcafe.talkingpointsmemo.com --- 5 days ago
Howard Wolfson has authored a new article for The New Republic. The title? It's Over: Why Bill Ayers Won't Save John McCain . We'll look at the article in a moment. However, for those relatively new TPMers who may not know or recall the details of why the article is remarkable (four months is an eternity in a Presidential election, after all), we'll provide some back-story. The back-story goes months and months back, lost in a mashed-up, hazy fog of bailouts, lipstick, evaporating jobs, zingers, gaffes and Surge (apply directly to the violence!)...way back in time...to the spring of 2008. (Hey, four months is an eternity in most elections, this one in particular.) Howard Wolfson was, at that time, employed by Sen. Hillary Clinton as the communications director for her Presidential campaign. Wolfson is, as a result, one of the main reasons why Barack Obama should thank Clinton on a daily basis for the grueling Democratic primary. Wolfson, you see, crafted the daily assaults, talking points and non-stop conference calls that drove the conversation about Obama from early March until the North Carolina and Indiana Primaries in May. He was unabashedly aggressive, and a real pain to work against. If you needed to win a news cycle, though, Wolfson was THE guy. Only Steve Schmidt comes close to him in terms of manipulating the media. It's through this prism that I always saw Wolfson, the political operative. So, I was definitely sur ...

When Joe Biden tells voters he understands the threat posed by Afghan extremists, he dramatically illustrates one reason why: His helicopter was "forced down" on "the superhighway of terror." Actually, snow, not the enemy, persuaded the helicopter pilot to land and wait out a storm. The Democratic vice presidential candidate has repeatedly left that part out, in an episode that Republicans hope will become an echo of Hillary Rodham Clinton's errant tale during the Primaries of landing in Bosnia under sniper fire. Biden has made a number of questionable statements recently that, viewed in isolation, might not amount to much. But this is a man whose first presidential campaign collapsed 20 years ago after he told a story about coal miners in his family that he lifted without credit from a British politician. In a recent speech in Virginia coal country, Biden seemed to embellish his background once again. He declared, "I am a hard coal miner," which he's not and never has been. His spokesman, David Wade, said Biden was joking. And looking back on his 1972 Senate campaign, he told Pennsylvania delegates at the Democratic convention that people from his hometown of Scranton, Pa., piled in up to 10 buses and drove to Wilmington, Del., to show him support. "Literally," he said, "there were hundreds of thousands of people." ... Source: blogs.news-journalonline.com --- 10 days ago
He might not have been a big fan during the Primaries. But former President Bill Clinton will come to Orlando on Wednesday to rally voters for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama. Clinton, whose wife, Hillary, lost to Obama in the primary elections, is scheduled to appear at the University of Central Florida as part of the Obama campaign's push to register voters. Doors will open at 11 a.m. at the Old Arena, with the program starting at noon. Clinton also is scheduled to hold a similar rally later Wednesday in Fort Pierce. The deadline for registering to vote is Oct. 6. ... Source: www.kentucky.com --- 7 days ago
Recent election results show older voters can swing either way: In 2000, Democratic candidate Al Gore won the vote of those 65 and older to President Bush, but Bush won it four years later against Democrat John Kerry. In the Democratic Primaries, Obama didn't do as well among older voters as Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton. Those under 30 were among Obama's most steadfast voters, and there's evidence he's helped to turn out younger voters. But the importance of senior voters vs. the youth vote is evident in turnout statistics. Four years ago, about 47 percent of Americans ages 18-24 voted, which was about 11 percent more than four years earlier, according to the Census Bureau. Even with the increase, however, the 11.6 million young voters still represented the smallest percent of turnout of any age group. With turnout of 69 percent, twice as many voters ages 65 and older, or 24 million, voted as those 24 and under, according to a U.S. Census Bureau report. ...

After weeks of diddling and dawdling doing the statesman-like work expected of ex-presidents combating hunger, disease and other bad things, Big Bill Clinton finally hit the campaign trail Wednesday on behalf of the rookie who denied Hillary Clinton her rightful place back in the White House. As The Ticket noted in an item last night with details from The Times' Faye Fiore, B. Clinton was down in Florida where Barack Obama is making a real race of it with John McCain , who is around the age of so many of the Sunshine State's retirees. Clinton is good at what he does, talk. As The Ticket reported earlier this week . But we've got another version of Clinton's first event now from the Swamp, along with a speech transcript. There Clinton was in sunny Orlando, speaking for the freshman Illinois senator but also for Clinton's own legacy, which many feel he tarnished with intra-party bitterness on behalf of his wife during the rugged Democratic primary season. Remember that video with Clinton asking, When's the last time we elected a president with so little experience? Not surprisingly, as Sen. Clinton argued so often in the Primaries but still lost, B. Clinton was pointing out his belief that Americans were so much better off under his administration than the succeeding Republican. Presumably, things would go back to better with anoither Democrat like obama because Clinton isn't running. After ticking off a list of current financial wo ...
