He will endorse the Republican front-runner on Thursday.

The officials have told spoke on condition of anonymity. Romney will release his 288 delegates and urge them to back McCain.

The former Massachuttsetts governor dropped out of the race last week. It became apparent that toppling McCain would be near impossible.

Che Obama?

0 comments
This has been all over the web, however, I wanted to make a point on it.

This volunteer group designed to raise money for Obama in Houston Texas, has a Cuban flag with the face of Che Guevara superimposed on it, hanging in the facilitators office.

Although it is not a representation of an “official” Obama support group, meaning they are not sanctioned, it sure makes you wonder about the type of people that are supporting him.

The facilitator of the volunteer group simply said "I am Cuban." However, it is not just a Cuban flag, it is a Cuban flag with a terrorist on it, what does that have to do with the American political campaign?

Pro-communist indeed, as well as pro socialism, funny how those radical groups are always associated one way or another with the current Democratic party.

The Democratic Party, taking money from Communist and Socialists for over 60 years.

Obama’s War Flip Flop Begins

0 comments
As Barack Obama shows signs of pulling away with the Democratic nomination, it appears he’s trying to find some wiggle room in his support of a firm withdrawal date from Iraq.

CBS’s Steve Kroft asked Obama in a 60 Minutes interview if he would pull out of Iraq according to a timetable “regardless of the situation? Even if there’s sectarian violence?”

Obama responded, “No, I always reserve as commander in chief the right to assess the situation.”

As a U.S. senator and Democratic presidential candidate, Obama has called on President Bush again and again to agree to a binding withdrawal date for U.S. troops to leave Iraq.

He even introduced legislation, titled The Iraq War De-Escalation Act of 2007, to remove all combat brigades from Iraq by March 31, 2008.

When Obama introduced his bill, he said on the Senate floor that: “The President must announce to the Iraqi people that within 2 to 4 months, under this plan, U.S. policy will include a gradual and substantial reduction in U.S. forces. The President should then work with our military commanders to map out the best plan for such a redeployment and determine precise levels and dates.”

This new position could be the beginning of a new, moderate war strategy designed for the general election. Over the weekend, Obama won primary contests in Louisiana, Maine, Nebraska, the Virgin Islands and Washington State with wide margins over Hillary Clinton.
Right now, Obama only has a small edge over Clinton in delegates. Obama has 1,134 and Clinton has 1,131 according to CBS, but Obama is favored to win other post-Super Tuesday elections.

Whoever wins the Democratic nomination will likely face Republican Sen. John McCain (R.-Ariz.), who was once a POW, chairs the Senate Armed Services Committee, backed President Bush’s “surge” of troops to Iraq, and opposes a fixed date for withdrawal.
