A Divided Party
John Judis observes:
“After securing the nomination in June, Obama’s first priority had to be healing the rift between himself and Hillary Clinton. Candidates who can’t put nomination battles behind them well before the convention usually lose. Think of Goldwater in 1964, Gerald Ford in 1976, Jimmy Carter in 1980, and Walter Mondale in 1984. There are only two candidates I can remember who succeeded in overcoming intraparty rifts during the convention-John Kennedy in 1960 and Ronald Reagan in 1980-and they did it by nominating their primary opponents to be vice president.”
This was highlighted again last night by Joe Biden’s speech. It was typical Biden - long-winded, gaffe-ridden, melodramatic. It was not the speech of a man who has a large national constituency and is comfortable on a stage in front of tens of millions of viewers. Obama would have instantly healed any rifts in his party, and probably would also have a sizable lead over McCain right now, if he had picked Clinton instead. (And if he had to pick a Biden, he should have gone with the senator’s son, Beau, the Delaware attorney general who has a record of military service and gave an excellent introduction to his father last night.)
Also, is it just a coincidence that the two most effective speeches of the convention so far - Bill and Hillary’s - are the two speeches the Obama campaign had the least control over?

trailers are taking to the air this week as we discuss five previews that make me think of flying. upthis is a real perceptive little teaser but it makes me smile every time i notice it, and i’m attractive certain that’s ed asner voicing the single word in use accustomed to. i suspect this coach bit of film will not even close up in the final flick, but it’s already sold me through its ability to be charming as criticism. this is pixar’s tenth quick act, though not having seen block-e up till i’m starting to fall behind. in addition to asner the enunciate cast includes christopher plummer and pixar mainstay john ratzenberger, and is described as “a ‘coming of old age’ allegation,” in which “a seventysomething celebrity, alongside his clueless wilderness ranger sidekick, travels the globe, fighting beasts and villains, and eating dinner at 3:30 in the afternoon.”fireflies in the gardenif willem defoe were my frame and he was half as crazed as he looks here i’d be melodious screwed up too. this is a semi-autobiographical advertise from director dennis lee and deals with a family trying to deal with an unexpected tragedy. defoe plays the father and presumably the begetter of much of the dysfunction and ryan reynolds is the son publishing his memoirs and telling up the dung. julia roberts is there too, along with carrie-anne moss and hayden panetierre. the trailer comes situated as fascinating but grim, so if you’re looking proper for the feel good movie of the year you should probably look to another place. here’s what eugene thought.

Huffpollstrology: Candidates’ Horoscopes, Polls And More For August 8
Polls have come to dominate the media’s horse race coverage of political campaigns. Pundits and reporters constantly use them to tell us who’s hot and who’s not — but skip over the fact that plummeting response rates and variables like undecided voters and margins of error often render these polls useless as anything other than lightweight diversions on par with horoscopes and political betting lines. Below you’ll find a slew of polling, astrological, and betting information that will hopefully help the polling junkies in the media keep polls in the proper perspective.
We’ve also updated HuffPollstrology to bring you regular takes from astrologers on the state of the presidential race. And we’ve included a section that digs deeper into how polls are conducted. And to make sure we’re really investigating, we’re going to add various blogs and articles that cast a skeptical eye on polling. Read on for lots of HuffPollstrology:
ASTROLOGER PHILIP SEDGWICK LOOKS AT THE CANDIDATES:
The campaigns say one thing about the candidates. But does astrology say something else? Read my esteemed colleague Philip Sedgwick’s take on McCain and Obama’s birthchart. Find out who’s really winning despite what the polls suggest - Astrologer Phyllis Mitz
Take heed politicians. Do as your predecessors did while leading our ancestral humankind to a better tomorrow. Follow the pole star. That’s pole star, not pollster. And keep in mind that over the centuries the pole star changes as does the political landscape between now and November.
This column will follow the horoscopes of the presumptive nominees, John McCain and Barack Obama (listed and interpreted alphabetically), as we eagerly approach November’s election.
How odd that both presidential candidates chose to incarnate in the month of August, though of different sign lineage? How odd is it that both candidates have planets at corresponding degrees in the sign of Virgo and right now both candidates reap the benefits/hazards of a megadose of Virgo planets above?
John McCain
Actually starting a day or so ago and taking the chart through the upcoming weekend news cycle, the feisty, edgy, uppity and impulsive Mars aligns with McCain’s planet that deals with economics and matters relating to women. Whatever you do, do not do anything or suggest anything that could be construed as offensive to women. Dang, there was that Sturgis Buffalo Chip Cindy thing, but maybe if you avoid the issue of a woman’s right to choose over the next several days, that’ll fall away neatly. Fall away if you leave international destinations… like the Paris Hilton… alone. Why not shift the course entirely?
Within days the money planet Venus meets up with your Sun sign. Focus, get serious and get into a valid, viable economic posture if you intend to have a snowball’s chance of having people imagine that they might be better off during your administration. Since Virgo is involved, refrain from the nearly irresistible temptation to slam your opponent’s ideas or select a nugget of a plan and dis it, especially if that tidbit actually makes a real difference… and sense. The energy of the time demands solutions and a platform that declares such solutions. Criticism and being too silly falls short of the mark. Maybe it’s too simple. There is that reputation Virgos have for losing sight of the forest because of the trees. This would be a great time to announce thoughtful and thorough economic reform that can be implemented coinciding with a most favorable pattern falling on September 12th. This pattern, which astrologers call a Jupiter-Saturn trine, renders a nifty balance between income and expenditures, expansion and contraction, and a conservative spirit of adventure that allows the farthest growth possible. During this window, a Senator could launch a program of comprehensive economic reform and have it be well received. Dang again, that’s right… nobody’s home. I forgot. Just yesterday you chastised Congress for its dog days of summer vacation and leaving the country unattended… as you stumped in the Dakotas well away from the rotunda for how long now?
Here’s another one for you. As the Olympics begin and the President makes his mark in China, it would be a great time to establish a clear demarcation line from any policy that could be construed as theologically or culturally exclusive. Fortunately or not, astronomers recently established a new cultural and social archetype with the naming of a new dwarf planet, Makemake, creating an archetype that insists upon bridging across cu …
