Sunday, January 21st - Meet the Press

Earlier Sunday, one of her White House rivals said Clinton is the favourite right now for the Democratic nomination, but the party is a "lifetime" away from making its 2008 choice.
"I think she's incredibly formidable and has got to be the front-runner and the odds-on pick right now. But this is a marathon. There's a long way to go," said Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del.
...Biden, however, said he did not look at the race as Clinton's to lose.
"Look, listen, we're a lifetime away. Hillary Clinton is going to have to make her best case. And there's a lot of us out there that are known but in a sense not known, and we're going to make our best case. And I don't think Hillary's best case versus mine or Barack's or anybody else's necessarily trumps us," said Biden, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

Hillary Clinton joins 2008 presidential race
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Democratic Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton entered the 2008 U.S. presidential race on Saturday with a swipe at President George W. Bush as she capped years of speculation about her White House ambitions.
In a message on her Web site, the former first lady, who aims to become the first woman elected U.S. president, wrote: "I'm in. And I'm in to win."
The second-term U.S. senator from New York is seen as the front-runner among five Democratic hopefuls, including Illinois Sen. Barack Obama, who is expected to be her main competitor within the party and whose bid could make him the first black president. Former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards, the 2004 Democratic vice presidential nominee, is another candidate.

Hillary Rodham Clinton expressed confidence Sunday in her presidential prospects and said she awaits a spirited contest for the 2008 Democratic nomination.
"I'm looking forward to it. It'll be a great contest with a lot of talented people and I'm very confident. I'm in, I'm in it to win and that's what I intend to do," she said after her first public appearance since announcing her candidacy Saturday.
The New York senator said she decided to run after talking to family, friends and supporters since her re-election in November.
"It was a thorough review for me about the problems we confront in the country, the particular strengths and talents I would bring - both to the race and the White House," Clinton said.

Edwards, Democratic presidential hopefuls paying new attention to Alabama

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - Alabama is getting something it hasn't seen in years: Early attention from Democrats interested in being president.

Former Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina will attend a campaign fundraiser in Birmingham on Friday, and retired Gen. Wesley Clark was in Montgomery on Monday, his second trip since the fall. Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack visited last year, and Rep. Artur Davis of Birmingham wants to host an Alabama fundraiser for Illinois Sen. Barack Obama.

In Orlando.
The author states that there will be more in his Sunday column.

Democrat John Edwards brought his bid for the White House through Central Florida last night for a fundraiser at lawyer John Morgan's home in Lake Mary last night...But I thought I'd go ahead and share one thing Edwards said that somewhat surprised me.

 

He was predictably unsatisfied with George W. Bush. But he also had some less-than-flattering things to say about his own party. Specifically, Edwards chastised Democratic leaders in Congress for their non-binding resolution opposing the troop build-up. If they are truly opposed to the build-up, Edwards said Democrats should put back their words with action by voting against funding measures. Because, if complaining is all the Democratic leaders want to do, Edwards asked: "Why don't we go stand in the corner and stomp our feet like an 8-year-old?"

I know that Gravel was in Washington, D.C. this week - but I've been unable to find out what he was up to this weekend.  Anyone?

Once again, I know there are supporters out there, help me.  The campaign will not respond to me and the mainstream media does not cover him.

Obama


Obama supporters, please help!  I cannot find any information on where the candidate is spending his time.  Help me out, send me details by email.

Of course, the announcement was this past week.

Richardson
Sunday, January 21, 2007

New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson Sunday announced he will seek the Democratic nomination for U.S. president in 2008.
"I am taking this step because we have to repair the damage that's been done to our country over the last six years," Richardson said in a statement on his official Web site.
"Our reputation in the world is diminished, our economy has languished, and civility and common decency in government has perished," he said.
Richardson said the next president "must get our troops out of Iraq without delay."
"Before I became governor of New Mexico, I served as ambassador to the United Nations and as Secretary of Energy," he said. "I know the Middle East well and it's clear that our presence in Iraq isn't helping any longer," said Richardson.

Democratic presidential hopeful tackles world affairs and education in visit to Londonderry
LONDONDERRY, N.H. - Democratic presidential candidate Tom Vilsack told seventh-graders yesterday that if he was commander in chief he'd pull American soldiers from embattled areas of Iraq.

World affairs, education and opportunity dominated discussion in Bob MacClellan's social studies class at Londonderry Middle School, where the former Iowa governor and his wife fielded questions from students.

The war in Iraq came up several times, spurred by questions from students Sierra Baldwin and Janice Harvey. Janice asked Vilsack what he, as president, would have done differently than President Bush.

Vilsack said he would have asked more difficult questions before committing U.S. troops to battle. He said as governor he has had to make 43 calls to the families of military personnel killed in Iraq.
