New Jersey's Republican Gov. Chris Christie and Newark's Democratic Mayor Cory Booker have teamed up in a new web parody video portraying the two men as bitter political rivals desperately trying to one up each other.

Obama Commercial Hits Romney Hard, and where it hurts

The Obama campaign is hitting hard at Romney, with a 2-minute ad on Mitt Romney's Bain Capital.

Targeting Romney's involvement in the acquistion of GST Steel, the commercial shows workers at a shuttered plant pinning Romney and Bain with the blame.


Come on Folks, Who Really Politicized Bin Laden's Death?

I have to confess I was a little uncomfortable with the ad from team Obama on Bin Laden, from the perspective of these types of attacks (Mitt Romney might not have made the same decision to send Navy SEALs into Pakistan) are best left historically to surrogates. Like the President did do with Vice President Joe Biden, "Bin Laden is dead, General Motors is alive," and former President Bill Clinton from the actual commercial.

What Is the Real Reason the Presidential Race Is Already So Tight?

The general election campaign is underway and the president could be in for the fight of his life. As expected, Mitt Romney won all five GOP primaries Tuesday, and his remarks sure sounded like an energetic nomination speech.

"A better America begins tonight," Romney told supporters in Manchester, New Hampshire.

Dare I say it? Could it be? Romney sounded presidential.

Quinn gains 20 point lead: poll

Let's face it.

If you're City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, the race for NYC Mayor can't get here fast enough.

Quinn who has a shot at making history not only as the first woman mayor of the Big Apple, but also as the first openly gay mayor of the city, has been receiving some good press regarding her strong support for gay marriage and legislation she's backed mandating a controversial "living wage" for employees of businesses receiving city subsidies.

Bill Cosby: Trayvon Martin Case is about guns, not race

Entertainer Bill Cosby says the national uproar over the killing of teen Trayvon Martin should be over guns, not race.  I ask, does Cosby have a good point?

In an interview on CNN's "State of the Union" that aired Sunday, Cosby said calling George Zimmerman a racist was pointless.


Hillary2016? It Could Happen

One of the few mementos that I proudly keep is a 2008 "Hillary for President" media pass.

It's bright yellow, and is from the Iowa caucuses. I remember the night well in Des Moines at her victory night celebration.
