Sen. Clinton is campaigning on behalf of the Obama Biden ticket this weekend in Ohio. Hillary will be making appearances in Akron and Elyria. Click here for more details.

Many of us in Texas hope that Hillary can make it back to Texas to work on areas that went heavily for her in the primary including the Rio Grande Valley/South Texas and El Paso areas. It is doubtful since we are not a battleground.

Today started bright and early as we (Sheri, Monique & I) departed Ted Steven's International Airport bright and early at 12:05 am.  I wonder how that will read after the Ted's legal matters are fully investigated?

After playing phone tag for what seems like months, Kimberly Pace and I finally were on the same phone call at the same time. It seems she is rather popular, and at first thought that I was from Fox. (Yes, that Fox). So we spent the first few minutes making sure we both were Democrats, and then….

DocJess: Kimberly, I know this is supposed to be an interview about you as a delegate, but since you’re from Alaska, I can’t wait – how is the Ted situation?

Kimberly: I am just loving it. There’s an entire movement up here called “Retire Ted”. And it’s going very well, although it doesn’t seem to be getting the national press it’s grabbing locally.
