Something Is not right.

Some Merrill brokers have been offered what they refer to as "zilch" (less than $1,000,000) to stay on board the combined team at Bank of America, while those who have been offered bonuses - 50 percent of the work force - represent nearly 80 percent of Merrill's broker business.

 

This past week ending October 31, 2008, along with 35 additional closures at GM and Ford's chief suppliers, about 149,000 hourly and salaried jobs have been eliminated.

Some where, some how, don't you feel we have just been had?

Of the $250 billion, which will come from the $700 billion bailout approved by Congress, half is to be injected into nine big banks, including Citigroup, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase, officials said. The other half is to go to smaller banks and thrifts. The investments will be structured so that the government can benefit from a rebound in the banks’ fortunes.

American Idol Palin

Somebody better do something quick cause this is slipping away. 

A few days ago, everyone was stunned at Senator McCain's selection for VP, now they are stunned for another reason... her success.

Last nights evening news used footage of Governor Palin addressing a large audience while Senator Obama was fumbling with note cards at a town hall meeting.

Governor Palin is kind of the 'American Idol" candidate, after one look the audience votes and with only a few weeks left in the race, the audience may not look again.  Senator Obama has to do something bold to regain the initiative.

Thomas Jefferson is rolling over in his grave.

It is so uncomfortable, this whole faith forum McCain and Obama just went through.   Who agreed to this thing?  Separation of Church and State and the first forum out of the box our candidates for President take a heartfelt grilling from some California  Evangelist?  Who agreed to this?

The whole thing awful and un-American.


The Real Problem with Oil Prices and Boone Pickens

August 4, 2008 RedZoneReport

Senator Obama's call for using the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) to lower the price of gas is a little too pandering even for the RedZoneReport.  The SPR equates to 33 days of oil at current daily US consumption levels of 21 million barrels a day and is far to short of supply manage the price of gas for any great length of time, and it sends the worst possible message the energy crisis is not real.  Same with off shore drilling.  It only delays the inevitable.

The problem with the economics of conservation is one day oil is $140 bb which makes a whole range of energy savings devices cost effective, but the next day oil is $110 and those same devices are not so cost effective?

Boone Pickens thinks the answer is painting the Midwest and mountain basins with these wind mills.  Maybe he's right, but hope not.  How sad to explain to your grand kids what the Great Plains were like before wind generators?

The answer has to be in the price of oil.  Stabilize it price at a high enough figure to encourage alternatives, or otherwise the U.S. will be dancing to a foreign tune for years to come.


Senator McCain ought to be ashamed.

August 1, 2009 RedZoneReport

Just ask Harold Ford.  McCain’s latest campaign commercial comparing Paris Hilton and Britney Spears with Senator Obama’s popularity is racist at its most base level.  White women and black men; that’s the message this commercial is projecting beneath everything else.   Think not?  Ask Congressman Harold Ford.  In his Senate race last cycle in Tennessee, attack ads depicted a series of young, white women speaking affectionately about Congressman Ford, a black man.   In one ad a young woman coos.. "Call me, Harold."   Another tactic, and one I’m sure we will see utilized this year, African drums beat in the background when ever Congressman Ford’s name is mentioned.  But the best line was Ford’s white opponent’s tag line in the race, "Bob Coker, he’s one of us." Coker went on to win the Senate race amidst cries of blatant racist tactics, but a win is win in this business.

"Hide the women, a black man has been made sheriff," was a line from the movie Blazing Saddles.  Conservatives operate on fear, and a black guy running off with their women folk is apparently one of their biggest nightmares.   Senator McCain ought to be ashamed.


Senator Obama would be only the third Senator in history to be elected directly from the Senate to the White House.

July 29, 2008 RedZoneReport

Reports last night that Senator Obama has Virginia Governor Tim Kaine, and Senators Biden and Bayh on his short list for VP are puzzling.  Why would the ticket need another Senator?  The Governor maybe, but the Senators bring little to the table.  If he wants Biden's foreign policy experience, make him Secretary of State.  As VP, Biden would have little input on foreign policy except attend funerals.  And what does Senator Bayh add?  Indiana? Maybe. Bush won Indiana 60% in 2004.

There was also talk of Governor Kathleen Sebelius of Kansas, but if the country is going to have a problem accepting a man of color as President, I don't see complicating it with Kathleen on the ticket.


Time to move on Senator

July 27, 2008 RedZoneReport:

While Senator McCain awaits the backlash of Senator Obama's trip abroad, he continues to focus on the Iraqi troop surge and or withdrawal time table.  Apparently he feels comfortable talking about Iraq and only Iraq.

The U. S. economy is going to hell in a hand basket and all he can talk about is Iraq.  He would "rather lose the election, than lose the war."  That was a good line six months ago, but it has become stale.


"McCain waits for fallout of Obama trip abroad"

July 25, 2008 RedZoneReport:

The McCain campaign reported this morning there will be a "huge backlash" from Senator Obama's trip abroad, especially his speech to 200,000 Germans yesterday.  This McCain camp just gets more bizarre everyday.  Senator Obama's turn out yesterday was mostly a reflection of a European country disgusted with the current American President and hoping for some new leadership on the world stage.

Senator McCain waiting for backlash for Obama's trip to Germany.  Still waiting.


  Governor Ed Rendell Obama's choice for VP.

July 15, 2008, RedZoneReport

This is a very good reason Governor Ed Rendell would be very good on Senator Obama's ticket..  The infrastructure.  If ever there was an essential, but non glamorous job that has to be done, a Vice President could devote himself to the crumbling infrastructure of the Country.

Governor Rendell as he accepted leadership of the National Governors Association.

"Now is the time, especially when interest rates are low, that we can repair the nation's infrastructure for far less than it will cost five or ten years from now," Rendell said, speaking at the Westin Philadelphia."

Rendell named head of Nat‘l Governors Association

Pennsylvania Gov. Rendell became chairman of the National Governors Association today and said he would lead the historically powerful organization on a campaign for greater spending on the nation's infrastructure.

"It's not the sexiest of issues but in many ways it's as important as any single thing we can do," Rendell said, arguing that the U.S. risks becoming a third-rate economic power if it does not dramatically improve roads, bridges and railroads.

In addition to lobbying Congress and the next administration for capital spending, Rendell said the NGA should consider "public private partnerships" and tolls to help maintain highways.

"Now is the time, especially when interest rates are low, that we can repair the nation's infrastructure for far less than it will cost five or ten years from now," Rendell said, speaking at the Westin Philadelphia.

July 3, 2008 RedZoneReport

Many RedZone readers have written to say, 'Obama will never choose Ed Rendell for VP because he's Jewish.'  To this we say nonsense.  America is about to elect a man of color President.   Ed Rendell brings a lot more than anything his faith would take away from the ticket.  Beside, America is in a 'What the hell?' kind of mood.  Anything to get away from the policies of the current White House.

While we're at it, I thought General Clark had a point about the national war hero, Senator John McCann.  Being shot down and held prisoner of war does little to qualify McCain as experienced in foreign policy.  In fact, his post-traumatic stress from his wars days may so embitter his outlook on foreign policy it makes him dangerous.  


June 28, 2008 RedZoneReport:

Few possibilities for Senator Obama's choice for Vice President would bring as much to the table as Governor Ed Rendell of Pennsylvania.

The former District Attorney, two term Mayor of Philadelphia, past Chairman of the National Democratic Party, Chairman of Governors Association, re-elected by landslide proportions, Governor of the third most rural state in America, wife a Federal Judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals.. Governor Rendell would make the ticket more appealing to the conservative, white Clinton base.

Governor Rendell is close to the Clintons but more importantly his domestic experience.. big cities and big states would help the ticket immensely.

Clinton Influences

04/19/2010

RedZoneReport:  Todd Purdum, National Editor Vanity Fair, wrote an article about Bill Clinton in the magazine this week, June 2, 2008.  Mr. Purdam felt readers need to know who carries the former Presidents bags and flips the lights on at the Harlem office. 

Then Purdam suggests the former President is on painkillers  (the dry mouth reference.)  Purdam thinks Clinton was acting odd on the campaign trail recently.   Whatever.

The thing the article missed is who was Clinton's influence?  Bag handlers, rich guys, Bruce Lindsey, David Leopoulos, Vince Foster?

Hold my umbrella...  while I take your house.

RedZoneReport, April 30, 2008 asks: Just when do they lose the ability to carry their own umbrella?  Is it before the Congress helps him buy Bear Stearns with $30 billion?  Or is after he repossesses your house to cover his mortgage losses at the bank?

Dual til' Denver

RedZoneReport, April 14, 2008:   The Nation is following the drama of the Democratic Party and from the perspective of public interest, the Democratic primary for President in 2008 is the greatest in history.. certainly the largest audience following the drama all the way to Denver.

The Party has two excellent candidates for president and as far as I am concerned it can go all the way to Denver.

Why not?  This is not 1968 where the Mayor of Denver is about to set dogs on demonstrators.  This is a Party with two excellent candidates for President, and when the time comes to concede the nomination I believe one of these Americans will.

Senators Clinton and Obama give McCain a third of the stage and a 10th of political money.

Democrats are raising large sums of money from small contributors, we have a black man and a women in contention for leadership of the Party, what's not to like.

Relax.

Apparently the Revolution is here.

The disparity in cash and future fundraising ability is summed up here:

Senator Barak Obama 230,000 contributors less than 3% maxed out. $30 million/month

Senator Hillary Clinton  35,000 contributors more than 75% maxed.

It was good while it lasted.

I hope Thomas Jefferson is happy.  Probably is.

McGovern rules

I do not believe there is a knock out punch left in the Democratic primary system for either HRC or Senator Obama.

Now there are enough delegates in all camps (including Edwards) with a personal interest in going to Denver.  Arrangements have been made, so to speak. 

So this is going to Convention.

But let me tell you this, one of the flaws of the McGovern rules are the super delegates.  I do not believe uncommitted super delegates (20%) will withstand a challenge from the floor of an evenly divided convention.  It goes against the very spirit of the McGovern rules.

Now everyone has an interest in Denver.
