Guest Blog Pundit Matthew Sawh: The Psyche Vs. The Practical -- Understanding Ms. Rodham and Her Veep-List
By webteam
The most important decision task in front of Hillary is that she needs to strike the right balance between winning and governing (if she wins). Even sixteen years after the two-for-one deal signed by Bill Clinton, they remain a potent political package. One of the reasons Bill fell for Hillary was that they had complementary skill sets.

Guest Blog Pundit Johanna Wald: Tell Hillary the Party is Over
By webteam
The party’s over. Only, apparently, no one is brave enough to tell Hillary Clinton.

Granted, I pay more attention to “momentum” and to trends in public opinion polling than to the delegate math. But I learned something that startled me today. According to Josh Micah Marshall of Talking Points Memo,

“ the press has been largely complicit in maintaining the fiction that the Democratic nomination race is not for all intents and purposes over.

Guest Blog Pundit Tyler Carpenter: Racism and the Democratic Campaign
By webteam
As we noted recently, it's always been our view that blogs belong to the people who read them and post. So, in that spirit, the Tote Board has been seeking anyone interested to file guest blog dispatches. The requirements are that, as always in this space, the blogger attempt to provide good, dispassionate analysis of the race.

Guest Blog Pundit Matthew Sawh: Some Possible Dark Horse Vice-Presidential Choices for Obama
By webteam
Obama's Dark-Horse Veep List:

1. Senator Russ Feingold:
The strongest counterpoint to the McCain aura of reform and cleaning the corporate system up. If Senator Obama is truly serious about challenging the 'Iraq Mindset' he needs to strongly consider Russ towards the top of the list. His selection would generate a serious debate about America's role in the world and its ideals at home.

Guest Blog Pundit Tyler Carpenter: Media Bias and the Democratic Nominating Process
By webteam
Recently, much of the focus from the Clinton camp centers on a not-so-subtle bias toward Obama in the "mainstream media". The complaints have focused on the media's portrayal an Obama win as virtually inevitable, and the sense that all her campaign's messages are being cast in a light of desperation. There have been hints that this bias is due to sexism in the mainstream media as more than one Clinton supporter has written "if Barack Obama were female, he wouldn't even be considered a serious candidate by the media".

Guest Blog Pundit Vic Sholis: The Battle for Texas
By webteam
This is it, folks. After months of skirmishes across
the country, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are in
Texas for the next two weeks, waging what possibly is
a fight to the death.

Texas is the biggest state left on the Democrats'
calendar, and both sides acknowledge that for Clinton
to survive, she must win in Texas. So what's it look

Guest Blog Pundit Johanna Wald: What Obama Has to Do in Tonight's Debate and Over the Next Two Weeks to Seal the Deal
By webteam
Barak Obama is on the verge of putting this contest away. This is what, in my opinion, he needs to do in tonight’s debate and over the next two weeks to fend off the sharks :

1. Somehow respond to, get past, and diffuse wife Michelle’s statement about this being the only time in her adult life that she has been proud of America. He needs to perform the tricky task of being totally loyal to and supportive of his wife, while also defanging her statement before it comes back to bite them in the general election.
