Wildly popular Paris mayor Betrand Delanoe has announced that he will seek the leadership of his Socialist Party and afterwards will seek the presidency of France. Delanoe’s declaration in an interview with Le Monde newspaper puts to rest months of speculation. “Yes, I will put all my energy at the service of my beliefs,” the mayor told Le Monde newspaper …

Built in 1989 in Hell’s Kitchen, Worldwide Plaza comprises three buildings between 49th and 50th streets on Eighth Avenue. One Worldwide, the tallest at 41 stories, is an office building where major ad agencies live. Ugh, the meetings I’ve had there. The shorter similar building to its left is all condos. A business acquaintance of mine works on the 21st …

It killed me that very fucking first person CNN interviewed after Hillary’s speech, before they even allowed the commentators to speak, was ultra diehard PUMA and Hillary delegate Anne Price-Mills, who says that she will still vote for Hillary for the nomination and that she may sit out the general election. DID SHE NOT HEAR THE SPEECH? Watch her sob …

Quite simply one of the best political speeches I’ve ever seen. Strident when appropriate, soft when needed, but ultimately a complete home run. Let’s hope she turned around a lot of those McCain Democrats. The complete speech is below in three parts.

Hillary gave us a shout out in the first few minutes of her speech. Fantastic. Taking pictures off my TV doesn’t always work well, but man, her new face looks great. She looks ten years younger. Just now: “No way. No how. No McCain.” The speech is starting great, I’ll have the video here as soon as possible.

“The hue and cry over [Manhunt founder] Crutchley’s politics is all too familiar. Why can’t gay activists countenance the idea of a “Massachusetts Republican”? Liberal intolerance. In the minds of too many on the left, gay people (like women and ethnic minorities) have to be liberal and support Democratic candidates. To do otherwise — that is, to have opinions on …

John McCain appeared on The Tonight Show last night, walking out to a standing ovation from the audience. Leno had opened with a monologue litany of old man jokes and McCain continued with jokes of his own. “My security number is 8.” As always, McCain is smooth and charming and gets some deserved laughs when he offers his VP slot …

In response to yesterday’s post about the anti-gay marriage yard sign campaign in California, I got an email from the folks at Austin-based Build A Sign who are giving away 100,000 self-customized yard signs to people who want to get involved in this year’s voter issues. “This is a historic election year for our country and, as a sign company, …

Would you take your lunch in the middle of Broadway? The surprise remodel that I told you about last month is already finished and the Times is reporting that it’s a huge hit, even though office workers are predicting imminent death and gore. “It’s a death trap,” Mr. Sachinis, a network administrator for a garment company, said with a laugh. …
