2004 Presidential Election
Carol Mosely Braun is speaking this Saturday in Denver according to the Rocky Mountain News [September 30, 2003 "The Stump, September 30"]. From the article, "Democratic president candidate Carol Moseley Braun will be in Denver Saturday. Braun, the first black woman elected to the U.S. Senate, is the keynote speaker for the Colorado Black Women for Political Action's annual luncheon, 11 a.m. Saturday, Renaissance Hotel, 3801 Quebec St., 303-745-9566."
Gary Hart is endorsing John Kerry for the Democratic presidential nomination, according to the Rocky Mountain News [September 30, 2003, "Hart backs Kerry's White House bid"]. Of course the article is mostly about Hart continuing Kerry's run of bad luck in catching a break in his campaign.  From the article, "Hart toyed with running for president again this year but decided against it in May. Hart's first presidential campaign was in 1984, the same year Kerry was elected senator from Massachusetts. Kerry and Hart served together for two years until Hart left the Senate. Active in Democratic politics for more than three decades, Hart served as George McGovern's campaign manager in the 1972 Democratic nominee's unsuccessful bid for the presidency. Hart was elected to the Senate in 1974. Hart won the New Hampshire presidential primary in 1984, but lost the nomination to Walter Mondale. In the warmup to the 1988 race, Hart was off to a fast start but was forced out after stories surfaced of his extramarital involvement with model Donna Rice. During his 15 years out of politics, Hart has been busy practicing law, writing more than a dozen books - both fiction and nonfiction - and offering his expertise on the military and national security. He was co-chairman of the U.S. Commission on National Security, which warned several months before the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks that the United States faced a clear threat of foreign attack on U.S. soil that would kill thousands."
Hey you political junkies here's a weblog with posts across the political spectrum (maybe). The organization is into 3 columns, Democratic issues and candidates on the left, Republicans on the right. Of course. The center column is for third parties. Check 'em out.
The Rocky is pointing to a flash bit from AP with details on the 2004 Presidential Election.
The Daily Kos is playing guess how much the candidates have raised in this quarter on an open thread. Good idea.
Here's a recent South Carolina poll from the American Reseach Group. Thanks to the Daily Kos for the link.
