YOUR FAITHFUL OREGON representative for the MTV Street Team '08 (ahem, yours truly) is invisible on this day, because Oregon doesn't exist when it comes to Super Tuesday. But my Street Team peeps are LIVE on the scene in each Super Tuesday state. It's a pretty cool idea, they'll...

Neutral Nezua.

I HOPE it is perfectly clear how neutral I am on this whole Super Tuesday thing. To me it seems obvious that I have no bias whatsoever. And I also hope mis amig@s (especially ustedes in Califas!) don't feel any pressure at all to VOTE TODAY IN THE PRIMARY....

Across the Divide

Sure, ultra-conservative Ann Coulter is threatening to campaign for Hillary Clinton if John McCain snags the nomination — "She's more conservative than he is," Coulter recently remarked. But while some young Republicans are supporting the Arizona senator all the same, others in the demographic say they're finding themselves drawn,...

Another Rare Endorsement

De Niro, the dean of "Goodfellas" thuggery, just made a surprise appearance at a rally here for Barack Obama, using words that we didn't know were even in his vocabulary. "I've never made a speech like this at a political event before. So what am I doing here?" De...

A Rare Endorsement

FROM AN ICON of the 60s abnd 70s, herself. One whose voice filled some of my most important and early years: The letter to the editor of today's San Francisco Chronicle came from a Californian who will be voting in Tuesday's primary. It reads: Editor - I have attempted...

"YOU CAN'T train for it in the workplace." Oprah speaks back to women who have told her she is a traitor to her gender as well as voting for Obama simply because he is black. "Don't play me small," she says... sombrero tip to liza...

Change and Sway

MOST OF US are talking about him. Even many of those who want Clinton are talking against Obama. Those who want Obama are talking for Obama. There is a site I'm thinking of, and I consider myself friends with most of the people who write there. They talk about...

Yes We Can. Sí Se Puede.

I KNOW that the Committee Yearning for the Next Installment of Clintons (CYNICS) will surely shrink from this vibe like slugs from salt (or, you know, like kings from carpentry work to employ a less hostile metaphor although it lacks the needed element of revulsion and horror), and I will...
