Good Afternoon, sorry this is a bit late, I got real tired real early last night and had to call it a night early. Anyway, in the race for the White House on Friday, all 8 Democratic Presidential Candidates and one other probably contender spoke at the Democratic National Committee's winter meeting. 5 spoke on Friday and 4 will speak today. Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada also spoke and encouraged his fellow Democrats to visit the Silver State of Nevada, saying "you win in Nevada, you win in the West." Former Republican New York City Mayor Rudy Guiliani scored a major endorsement on Friday, former executive director of the South Carolina Republican Party Scott Malyerck. Not only will Malyerck help Guiliani in South Carolina, but also in New Hampshire, as well. He is a Granite-state native and a former executive director of the New Hampshire Republican Party in the late 1980's. Democratic Senator Hillary Clinton of New York said that as President she will end the Iraq war immediately after inauguration, if Congress or President Bush doesn't end it before then. Democratic Senator Chris Dodd of Connecticut asked his party faithful to give him a chance to be heard. Former Democratic Senator John Edwards of North Carolina criticized the Iraq resolution that is a non-binding agreement condemning President Bush's escalation of the war in Iraq, which Edwards says "the President will ignore". Democratic Senators Clinton and Barack Obama of Illinois support the resolution. Former Republican Governor Mitt Romney of Massachusetts accused Clinton of "timidity" regarding the security threat posed by Iran. In a speech to a retreat of conservative Republicans, Romney lashed out at Clinton for telling a Pro-Israel dinner that a dialogue with countries hostile to Israel -- including Iran and Syria -- is needed to promote peace in the Middle East. Democratic Senator Barack Obama of Illinois criticized the news media of turning politics into a reality show like "American Idol" or "Survivor". Its just a matter of time before Former General Wesley Clark of Arkansas throws his hat into the ring, speaking very much like a presidential candidate at the DNC winter meeting. In the race for the Senate: Liberal Radio Talk Show host Al Franken of Minnesota will formally announce his plans to run against Republican Senator Norm Coleman in 2008 on February 14 and will step down from his radio show at the end of that day to run. In US Politics in General: President Bush and Defense Secretary Robert Gates said there are no plans for military action against Iran at this time. Coming up: Because of my late post today, I will post the California House races tomorrow and will do Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, and Florida on Tuesday, February 6, 2007.

Good Friday Morning and Happy Groundhog Day! In the race for the White House on Thursday, Democratic Senator Hillary Clinton of New York teamed up with Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina to keynote a New America Foundation policy forum "Ten Big Ideas for a New America" on Captiol Hill. Republican Senator Sam Brownback of Kansas travelled to Michigan to deliver a speech "The Proper Role of the Judiciary" to the Ave Maria School of Law, and also keynoted a conference of the Michigan Society of Association Executives in Lansing, Michigan. Former Democratic Senator John Edwards of North Carolina travelled to New Hampshire, the state with the first primary, to hold a town hall on "America's role in the world" at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire. On the Comedy Channels "Daily Show with Jon Stewart" Democratic Senator Joe Biden of Delaware was asked about his relatively low standings in the polls and his fundraising and had this to say "This is a process. This is a marathon, and ultimately it comes down to the living rooms in people's homes in Maquoketa, Iowa, and Berlin, New Hampshire, and down in Sumter, South Carolina. And that's where the competition will be, and I think I can compete there." Former Republican Governor Mitt Romney of Massachusetts faced questions about his Mormon faith in the Bible Belt state of South Carolina and dismissed the idea that his faith would be an impediment to his White House aspirations. Democratic Senator Barack Obama of Illinois has reserved the Old State Capitol in Springfield, Illinois to make his formal announcement on Saturday, February 10, Democratic Governor Rod Blagojevich's office said. This is the same house that Abraham Lincoln served when he was a state representative and was the site that he delivered his famous "House Divided" speech warning that America cannot remain half slave and half free. Former Republican Governor Mike Huckabee of Arkansas had several events scheduled in the opening caucus state of Iowa on Thursday. The state of Texas is seeking to move up its presidential primary to Tuesday, February 5, 2008. Democratic Senator Chris Dodd of Connecticut picked up a key endorsement on Thursday, with former New Hampshire Democratic Party Chairman Joe Keefe to serve as advisor. In Senate News, Democratic Senator Tim Johnson of South Dakota has made "significant progress" in his speech therapy, and is able to read and follow written commands as he continues to recover from a brain hemorrhage and subsequent surgery in December, according to a statement issued by his office Thursday. Remember: This weekend, Saturday, February 3 and Sunday, February 4, 2007, I will be laying out California's races for 2008 and on Monday, February 5, 2007, I will be giving an updated list of Presidential Candidates.

Happy New Month, Folks!!!
It is a brand new month and another month of hardcore politics.
There wasn't a whole lot of political news on Wednesday:
In the race for the White House, Democratic Senator Joseph Biden of Delaware may have just committed political suicide today just hours after he "officially" entered the race. He called fellow Democratic Senator Barack Obama of Illinois the cleanest black he's seen. Thats not setting too well. Also, Former New York Republican Governor George Pataki is apparently delaying his decision on whether to stage a run for a few more months to "let the dust settle and see where we are in a few months".
In Senate News, Liberal Radio Talk Show Host Al Franken is planning to make a run for Senate in Minnesota against Republican Norm Coleman. He is giving up his radio show to make the campaign.
Remember: that this Saturday and Sunday, February 3 and 4, 2007, I will be posting California's races for 2008.

Good Morning,
Here we are at the last day of January 2007. That means as of this Sunday, February 4, 2007, we are only 21 months away from the 2008 Presidential Election.
In the race for the White House in 2008. Democratic Senator Joseph Biden of Delaware will make his official announcement (for like the 362nd time) that he's running for President.
In Kentucky, which holds its Gubernatorial election in the year preceding the Presidential election, thus 2007, 2011, 2015, etc., the filing deadline for the primary closed on Tuesday. Republican Governor Ernie Fletcher is facing a grueling primary battle from former Congresswoman Anne Northup. On the Democratic side there are five major contenders, former Lieutenant Governors Steve Beshear and Steve Henry, State Treasurer Jonathan Miller, State House Speaker Jody Richards, and wealthy businessman Bruce Lunsford.
Iraq War debate: Democratic Senator and 2008 Presidential Candidate Barack Obama of Illinois has outlined a plan to bring our troops home by March 2008. Meanwhile, Democratic Senator Russ Feingold of Wisconsin is urging his colleagues in the Senate and the House to cut off funding for the war. He is also criticizing fellow Democratic Senator Hillary Clinton of New York for saying that the Congress cannot stop the President unless there is major bi-partisan support. Feingold is saying that if the funding for the war is cut off, the President will not be able to conduct the war and would have to start bringing them home.
In the Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Democrat of Nevada, put an end to the Republican's filibuster of the minimum wage bill that passed the House earlier in January. Reid threatened to table the vote and move on to the Iraq war debate, and in a 87-10 vote, the Senate used cloture to end the filibuster.
In the next two weeks: Today, I will post a list of Senate and Congressional candidates for the "A" states. On Saturday, February 3, 2007, I will post the first half of California districts. On Sunday, February 4, 2007, the last half of California districts. On Monday, February 5, 2007, an updated list of Presidential candidates. On Wednesday, February 7, 2007, Colorado, Connecticut, and Delaware. On Friday, February 9, 2007, Florida. On Monday, February 12, 2007, an updated list of Presidential candidates. On Wednesday, February 14, 2007, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, and the first half of Illinois.

Good Morning, Everybody.
In the race for the White House in 2008, Former Democratic Senator John Edwards of North Carolina says "I may have been too inexperienced in 2004". He said in 2004, he was focusing on being a good candidate and this time around he's focusing on what he would actually do as President. Democratic Senator Joseph Biden of Delaware is set to formally announce his long-shot candidacy on Wednesday, January 31. EDITORS NOTE: Biden, though a very good Senator, doesn't have that great of a chance. I give him only a 35-40% chance of winning the nomination. He tried it in 1988, but was beat out my Democratic Governor Michael Dukakis of Massachusetts. He's turning into a political has-been.
In a recent poll conducted by Newsweek, 58% of Americans's wish the Bush Presidency would just be over already. His approval ratings have sunk to 30%. The poll was conducted January 24 and 25 and has a margin of error rating of plus or minus four percent.
In the next week:
On Wednesday, January 31, 2007, I will post the Senate and Congressional Races for the "A" states of Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, and Arkansas.
On Saturday, February 3, 2007, I will post the Senate and Congressional Races for California Districts 1-26

Monday, January 29, 2007
Good Morning to All,
Not much happened politically on Sunday, not much thats newsworthy, anyway.
Former Governor Mike Huckabee, Republican of Arkansas, is expected to file papers to form an exploratory committee to run for President today. His chances are fair to slightly better than average. As I said in Sunday's post, he's facing some stiff competition from John McCain, Rudy Guiliani, Mitt Romney, and Sam Brownback.
Republican Senator Chuck Hagel of Nebraska, a maverick Senator, is expected to decide on a run for the White House pretty soon.
Retired NATO General and 2004 Presidential Candidate, Wesley Clark, Democrat from Arkansas is expected to make his decision on a second try within the next couple months. EDITORS NOTE: Wes Clark and Chuck Hagel need to decide real soon and have enough time to get ready for the first primary debates in New Hampshire on Wednesday and Thursday, April 4 and 5, 2007 co-hosted by CNN. Clark doesn't have much of a chance in my opinion, having never been in government, only in the military. His foreign policy experience would be ideal during a time when its needed more than ever, but his lack of domestic policy experience could prove to be a fatal ailment in his campaign. His 2004 campaign didn't really get off the ground since he didn't file until September 2003 and thus only had four months until Iowa and New Hampshire. He subsequently dropped out in February or March 2004. Hagel is a decent option, especially with his vigorous opposition to the President's surge plan and opposition to the Iraq war itself.
Not much news in the Senate races for today, but hopefully some news will happen on Monday so it can be included here for Tuesday, January 30, 2007.
Coming up in the next post is a list of Presidential candidates for both parties thus far.

Presidential 2008 Politics:
Former Republican Governor Mike Huckabee of Arkansas has plans to take the first step in the 2008 Presidential Race on Monday. Huckabee is fighting an uphill battle as the Republican field is already loaded with Republican Senator John McCain of Arizona, Former New York City Mayor Rudolph Guiliani, and Former Governor Mitt Romney of Massachusetts among others have already jumped into the race either with an exploratory committee or a firm commitment to the race. He is not the only conservative in the race. Republican Senator Sam Brownback of Kansas has also stepped up plans to run for the White House in 2008.
The Democratic field is crowded, too. Senator Hillary Clinton of New York just announced last weekend and Senator Barack Obama of Illinois announced earlier this month. They are the frontrunners in the Democratic field. 2004 Democratic Nominee for President, Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts has announced he will not seek the White House in 2008.
Senatorial News:
As announced earlier in January, Republican Senator Wayne Allard of Colorado has announced he will not seek re-election in 2008, citing a promise he made to his constituents in his initial run for the seat in 1996 that he will not serve more than two terms. That leaves that seat wide open and a possible Democratic pickup. Since John Kerry is not running for President, that all but guarantees him re-election in the heavily Democratic state of Massachusetts where he has had traditionally wide margin of victories every time he ran for the seat dating back to 1984.
EDITORS NOTE: When I do the Monday, January 29, 2007 update tonight, I will include a list of Presidential Candidates both Republican and Democratic. For the update for Tuesday, January 30, 2007, I will update the Congressional situation, both Senate and House, for Alabama and Alaska. For Wednesday, January 31, 2007, I will include a list of Gubernatorial seats that are up for re-election in 2007 and 2008 and provide a list of candidates that may have already filed.

Welcome to my new blog!!
Hey folks,
Welcome to my new blog. This is my first blog to host, so bear with me as I go out on my maiden voyage.
This is a political blog for American Presidential, Gubernatorial, and Congressional politics. I will post every night between 9:00 pm and 1:00 am Central Time with the update for the next day. There may be some nights where I have to miss a post, but those nights will be a free-for-all.
I am a registered Democrat, but will make this as bi-partisan and non-partisan as possible. Though, I will interject my views where appropriate, but I will always make a distinction between my views and what is the actual news. My views will always be in italics.
In my posts, I will put the 2008 Presidential Race first, the Senate Races second, and the House Races third.
Every Saturday night on a separate post, I will post who is running or not running or has filed an exploratory committee for President and will do the same for each Senate seat once they become available. I will update the House race candidates twice a week with two states every post such as Alabama and Alaska the first post, Arizona and Arkansas the next post, California and Colorado the third post and so on. After I go through Wisconsin and Wyoming, I will go back to Alabama and Arkansas. I won't only focus on the "key" races, but I will also spend a little time on other races and try to focus on at least one or two races in every state whether they have 1 or 52 (California). With applicable states, I will focus on at least one House seat held by both major parties.
I hope you enjoy my blog and feel free to e-mail me with your thoughts on how I could improve the site. My e-mail is jabrown2007@gmail.com or jabrown_2007@yahoo.com.
Thank you, and God Bless America,
Jeff
