Obama Has No Business Kissing Maloney

Carolyn Maloney has been going around telling people Barack Obama kissed her. Whatever. In your dreams. Who do you think he is? Bill Clinton?






Before Michelle And I Became Rich And Famous
Michelle Obama Is Just Fabulous

Carolyn Maloney voted for the Iraq War. The starting premise for Obama 08 was that Barack opposed the Iraq War from day one. It had been a dumb war, a trillion dollar misadventure. Obama people don't let Obama people kiss Maloney. I am one Obama person, Barack is another.

Maloney Is Too Ordinary To Be Representing District 14

District 9, on the other hand.









But then Queens probably d-o-e-s feel like District 9 to her. 25% of the people in District 14 live in Queens. Only 5% of the federal dollars she has brought has gone to Queens. Maloney's idea of apartheid?

A Shift Towards Digital Volunteering

Reshma Aur SheraImage via Wikipedia
I knocked on doors, I made phone calls, and you can never really do enough of either, but I dropped by the Reshma 2010 headquarters earlier in the evening for about an hour - felt like in and out - and it felt like what I needed to do was make a shift in where I spend my volunteer hours.

I should make a shift towards digital volunteering. I have been doing some of it already. But what if I were to focus on digital volunteering as my primary thing for the campaign. I am going to work out the details over the next few days. I have a few ideas to start with. I hope to come up with a few more. I intend to flesh out the details. And I want to share with some of the staffers and interns and other volunteers to see if they want to do some of what I want to do.

This was 7:30 PM and the office was abuzz with all the phone calls being made.
