I’M FOR HILLARY … RELUCTANTLY

She hasn’t made it easy for me. Her speaking style grates and she rarely is able to hold the full attention of an audience. Plus, her relationship with the truth is ambiguous at best. Consequently, I’m definitely not for her in the same way I’ve been for Obama who, in my opinion, will go down

FBI DIRECTOR COMEY DOES THE RIGHT THING

Jim Comey had the 2016 Election in his hands. He decided not to blow it up. Trump vs. Clinton can go forward. It was the right call. If Comey had ended his Press Briefing yesterday by stating that he will recommend that the Justice Department seek a federal felony indictment for Hillary's mishandling of classified

NOT READY TO HATE TRUMP

I can't quite get to that “I hate Trump” spot where all sane folks are supposed to be. After all, I'm an Obama guy and have been from day one, so hating Trump should be a piece of cake, right? It isn't, trust me. Especially if hating Trump means I have to like Hillary, and,

CRUZ – FIORINA

If Ted Cruz and Carly Fiorina are the answer, what in heaven's name is the question? No, no, no … it's not, who's going to be the next President and Vice President of the United States … no way, José. That would be cruel and unusual punishment. Cruz and Fiorina are called to a different

TRUMP IS TOAST

Donald Trump, the billionaire builder who says he “loves the Bible” is on track to spend more time with it. He certainly will not have to worry about being encumbered by the responsibilities of public office. Trump told us that “we would win so much with him as President that we would get tired of

CHANNELING REAGAN I END UP FOR BERNIE

I'm for candidates that are capable of looking at the 7.4 billion people in the world as part of a human family, even if they live in Iran or Israel or Mexico or Mali or Gaza or Gabon. I'm for candidates that are capable of doing the right thing even though it involves confronting and

PITY THE POOR BILLIONAIRES

The most interesting, likable, and authentic candidates in each party (Bernie and Trump) don't want your money … although Bernie will probably take a check for $27 bucks, his average contribution. The media is agog, especially at the Trump phenomenon. Their commentary is virtually useless … mostly because they are stuck in political correctness mode

REPUBLICANS NEED A “DON'T DO STUPID STUFF” RULE

Barack Obama likes to keep things simple. Stylistically, he's no drama Obama. Operationally, the rule for the day, every day, is “Don't do stupid stuff.” Our most recent Republican President George W. Bush, who has taken an active role in support of his brother, was sorely in need of a “Don't Do Stupid Stuff” Rule

AFTER IOWA

If HILLARY CLINTON is going to be President, she needs the election moved up by six months. Her supporters aren't getting any younger. In Iowa, Bernie Sanders beat the bejesus out of her with people under 44 and in the under-30 segment, Sanders beat her by six to one. Seriously. The closer people got to

REPUBLICAN DEBATE: THINGS YOU'LL HEAR AND THINGS YOU WON'T HEAR

YOU WILL HEAR 1. After I take the oath of office, the first call I'll make will be to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. I'll put our good friend Sheldon Adelson on the phone, and we'll all have a good laugh about the future of the “peace process”. Hilarious. Also, we'll have to talk about
