The Clinton backing Teacher's Union are have filed a lawsuit to object to Nevada's "at large" precincts which were developed to make it easier for individuals within the Strip area to participate in the Nevada caucus. This area includes a large portion of members of the food and culinary workers who have backed Obama.

Morgan Sandlin's diary :: ::
The New York Times reports:

This could shut down those precincts in the casinos and keep culinary members from voting," said Jon Ralston, a political pundit with The Las Vegas Sun, who broke the story on his blog. Mr. Ralston said it is unclear whether there are ties between the lawsuit and the Clinton campaign but, he predicted, "Even if they’re Hillary supporters, the campaign’s going to say they had nothing to do with it.It is unclear when the court will hear the matter.
Isn't it amazing that the Clinton Camp had no such concerns prior to the Union's endorsements of Obama.

Selective outrage. How convenient.

"I can but I don't think it would make a difference."

He claims that McCain is a liberal compared to himself.

I think that says it all...


And yet, he doesn't see how that 'typecasts' him and puts him, at best, in the center of the Republican party which is very much right of the center on the political spectrum.
