  • Chip’s Vision

    Kleinheider posts on a letter from TNDP candidate for Chair, and current Treasurer, Chip Forrester. The letter gives scant new details on how Forrester plans to turn the party around, but does give just enough to make one want more, an appetizer or general vision, if you will, giving Democrats a tantalizing taste of what…

  • Feeling Dirty…

    Apparently “Joe the Plumber” said in an interview with Right Wing nutjob Glen Beck”felt dirty” during and after campaigning for Senator John McCain.
