[Ciro Rodriguez] is trying to regain his seat in Congress from Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Laredo) in the March 7 Democratic primary. But his campaign seemed to be slumping in January-Cuellar had raised four times more money than Rodriguez. That is, until "the hug"-the tender embrace between President Bush and Cuellar while the president was glad-handing in the U.S. House chamber following his January 31 State of the Union address. A photograph of the hug-in which Bush grabbed Cuellar's face two-handed, a la Michael Corleone's embrace of Fredo in the Godfather: Part II-has circulated on the Internet and reinvigorated Rodriguez's campaign. In the week after the hug, Rodriguez's campaign office received $52,500 in contributions, spokesman Oscar Sanchez said. That represented a quarter of the am...

The only reason [[JOHN MCCAIN] is] saving he's going after Clinton voters is because if he doesn't win their votes, he's not going to win this election," says Cécile Richards, president of Planned Parenthood. "Even though I think it's a real wash-up for him, he's got to find some more voters somewhere. That's the political math here. NARAL Pro-Choice America President Nancy Keenan says his shifting rhetoric is an attempt to "game" the electorate and confuse voters about his actual stances. "[The McCain campaign] knows full well that women in America, especially independent and pro-choice women, will not support a candidate who wants to overturn Roe v. Wade" Keenan says. "So they're still trying to make the case that he's a moderate and a maverick, when his record proves that he is nei...

The political action committee for Indiana Right to Life announced it was going to stop endorsing Democrats after the state's three pro-life Democratic congressmen all voted for the health care bill. [...] there was a lot of confidence in the prolife Democrats' ability to arrive at "common ground" with their pro-choice peers and influence their nominee, who was arguably the most pro-abortion major presidential candidate in history. The Family Research Council's political action committee and the Susan B. Anthony List, which stripped Stupak of a planned "Defender of Life" award, pledge to target his allies who voted for the health care bill in the fall elections.

The enthusiasm he garnered from younger people was based on their perception of him related to what they wanted to see, not what was there," says Bill Fletcher, executive editor of BlackCommentator.com, and a leader of [Progressives] for [Barack Obama]. "Their perceptions of him were rooted in rebellion against the [Bush] and Clinton years, and their hopes for a different kind of politics. If Obama presents himself as a kinder, gentler DLC'er [the corporate-oriented Democratic Leadership Conference], it's not going to inspire. While some on the left may still opt for the Green Party's Cynthia McKinney or independent Ralph Nader, most typically say they support Obama because of the need to defeat [John McCain].
