Sunday Politicking: On the Monday After Rick Perry's Fumble

Posted by Nicole K. on Monday, November 14, 2011, In : Politics 

Okay I have washed the cake out of my mouth, and now the celebration leads me into the Pete Williams coverage where he is keeping Gwen IFill's seat warm round table on Washington Week. The focus was on Rick Perry who is the competing candidate for the Republican nomination. He experienced a brain freeze at the wrong time during a debate held recently when he could not remember the name of the third government office tht he would eliminate if elected President in 2012. There was certainly s...

Sunday Politicking: Walking Tall Or Walking Away?

Posted by Nicole K. on Sunday, November 6, 2011, In : Politics 

Know when to walk away! From either side, it really is not a fold. Life goes on. The fall from glory is apparent and everyone knows it is real. On Washington Week, Herman Cain is all the talk the circumstances are clear accusations of misconduct from Cain allegedly of a sexual nature have sent his campaign into defensive mode. Now he must decide what is next for him on the campaign trial and in his political future. Anyone who is held in high esteem for any particular reason has a great respo...

Sunday Politicking: Personality and Micro Messages

Posted by Nicole K. on Sunday, October 30, 2011, In : Politics 

Taking the lid off of Washington Weeks jar of politic goodies is something that I look forward to because of the mix of personalities and opinions sitting at the table every week. Gwen IFill asked "Why is Herman Cain leading in the polls"? She received a great number of answers, all having to do with personality, realness, and likability. The messages we send out should be something that gets attention by peaking the curiosity of others. Herman Cain has been successful in doing so because Ame...

Sunday Politicking: Libya and Politics In Limbo

Posted by Nicole K. on Sunday, October 23, 2011, In : Politics 

A backshot or a low blow can not change the impact of the strategy of powerful presence. Gwen IFill is here and she is fulfilling her role as the in between to some of the most influential political junkies in television and print media. The rundown may leave some of the wannabee leaders standing on a lower platform looking up as other candidates like Mitt Romney and Herman Cain get more and more attention. The Shadow of Death is looming over the conversation and the name Moamoar Gadhafi is ...

Sunday Politicking: Women Hold Their Own

Posted by Nicole K. on Sunday, October 9, 2011, In : Politics 

A meeting of the minds on Washington Week changed up from the ties who dominated last weeks sit down to the ladies carrying briefcases and balancing on heels. To hear them go deep (on issues like political strategy and fund raising) while also talking about the highly sensitive issue of the constitutionality of a mandate that requires all employees to purchase healthcare insurance, was enough to inspire dresses everywhere. Their brainy and in charge attitudes are proof that women can hold the...

Sunday Politicking: Who is Our Teacher and What Can We Learn From Each Other?

Posted by Nicole K. on Sunday, September 25, 2011, In : Politics 

As always the many personalities around the table had lots to talk, about and if you are more or less confused about who's side you're on for the 2012 Presidential Election, then you certainly had a chance to pick an issue that concerned you. Do you care about the balance of power in the UN (United Nations), education, immigration, or gay rights? I'm sorry, but how does the teacher choose to lead the class, when students are behaving badly. We can certainly learn from each other what not to d...

Sunday Politicking: Poverty, Service, and Presidential Approval Ratings

Posted by Nicole K. on Sunday, September 18, 2011, In : Politics 

A cool down mixture of all things politics that included a couple of new faces dishing, asking, and answering tough questions one by one. The most vocal person was Beth Reinhard who made it a point to mention diversity, and the best listener was Micheal Fletcher who appeared a little uneasy at the round table, but he was able to loosen up during the Webcast Extra as he unleashed his views on the poverty issue.

Watch the full episode. See more Washington Week.

Sunday Politicking: On the Break of Tragedy Healed

Posted by Nicole K. on Sunday, September 11, 2011, In : Politics 

Now that I've met the majority of the Washington Weeks regulars, the next move is to acquaint you with the latest politic talk in an interesting manner. To get you on the edge of your seats, I will start with the deadly 9/11 attack that happened a decade ago. The tragedy was hurtful to say the least, and not only because of all the fatalities. It was down right crushing because something like that happened right in the heart of America. There was so much more juice on the full show, and you c...

Sunday Politicking: Surface Transportation Bill, Information, and Compromise

Posted by Nicole K. on Sunday, September 4, 2011, In : Politics 
Gwen IFill described the process of juggling or multitasking in our daily lives as a type of split-screen process when it comes to how we view the current agenda and political strategies of President Obama and his challengers.  Her description wasn't at all surprising to me because of my appreciation for the massive amount of information available nationwide from various media outlets, including television and print sources.

 One critical thing that I can not help but focus on is what I learne...

Sunday Politicking: Balance In Media Tells it like it is

Posted by Nicole K. on Sunday, August 28, 2011, In : Politics 
The ability to tell it like it is directly states how an audience should feel about receiving the latest news, gossip, or story from the conveying party.  There wasn't much excitement in the eyes of the Washington Week panel this past Friday, but I still felt hungry for a story or two.  Trying to find my spark, I listened to the tell all wondering what would strike me to formulate my own tell it like it is written piece.  Gwen IFill shifted to Jim Tankersley, an Economics Correspondent, openi...

Sunday Politicking: The Democratic Meal Ticket

Posted by Nicole K. on Sunday, August 21, 2011, In : Politics 
In a report from Gwen IFill last week, Dan Balz mentioned cleverly how the tiebreaker between Republican choices would narrow and be decided by the results of the Iowa Caucus, identifying the strongest candidate for the front runner position among Republicans.  The round table with John Dickerson tied in and made me focus on how the Democratic Party will benefit form the divide between the Republican Party Candidates.  The fire of the conversation struck a cord of concern about leadership and...

Sunday Politicking: Republicans Debate Numbers and Results

Posted by Nicole K. on Sunday, August 14, 2011, In : Politics 
In this political side bar of Washington Week Judy Woodruff met roundtable with John Harwood and Jackie Calmes and did not hesitate in laying out the bait for the dish.  Introducing the feast, If "ten dollars of spending cuts for every dollar of revenue increase" was the only logical answer for America's budget crisis, should that type of legislation make it though committee?  There was talk about the political ideologies of Republicans and their campaign strategies for low or no taxes, and a...

Sunday Politicking: What is a President to do?

Posted by Nicole K. on Sunday, August 7, 2011, In : Politics 
It always feels good to win when victory consist of all the things aligned with your own agenda.  In politics, the problem with that triumphant celebration in honor of the feel good moment is: if the winner rival lacks compassion, the responsibilities of the Executive Branch of government weighs heavy on law makers involved in the legislative process. Where politics are concerned, lack of compassion is law making at its worst; all full of greed and selfishness with no give and take.

Recently, ...
