Senator Obama Wins The State of Maine!

Well, Senator Barack Obama is having an incredible weekend! Senator Obama has won the state of Maine. Senator Obama is winning across the United States he’s winning in the south, the west, the north and the east. Obama is also gathering support across racial demographics as well. I must point out the vast majority of the population of Maine are white and they voted for Senator Obama.

Despite the bad weather, the voters in Maine turned out in record numbers. The tight race in delegates between Senator Clinton and Senator Obama continues. According to the Associated Press Senator Clinton has a small lead of 1, 135 delegates to Senator Obama’s 1, 106. I think this is exactly what the Obama campaign wanted they needed these victories and I hope the success continues.

Just learned that Senator Clinton has fired her campaign manager the Clintons are in a desperate mode right now.

I Hope Neo Ned Is Released In 2008?

I have heard some rumors that the controversial independent drama Neo Ned may be released on DVD in 2008? People are constantly complaining that black actresses never get serious dramatic roles. I think it is very sad that such an important film hasn’t found distribution. According to some discussions on the internet the controversial issue about the “Hitler factor” and the interracial romance theme is the reason “Neo Ned” hasn’t been released. I guess I am waiting in vain perhaps? Oh well, I hope I can see this film on DVD one day hopefully sometime this year?

Gabrielle’s character Rachel is a complex, intelligent, and depressed young black woman she believes the soul of Hitler is trapped in her body. Rachel is a survivor of sexual abuse and she only actually “pretends” that the soul of Hitler is in her body.

Yes, Neo Ned is a bit out there but this is a thought provoking independent film. Jeremy Renner and Gabrielle Union have both received incredible reviews for their outstanding performances in Neo Ned. Neo Ned has received some glowing reviews from the Los Angeles Times, Variety, International Herald Tribune, and other publications.

Neo Ned isn’t just a film about a white male Neo Nazi falling in love with a black woman that believes the soul of Hitler is in her body. The film appears to be challenging and thought  provoking.  Visit http://www.neoned.com and read the reviews for yourself. Neo Ned is about two damaged souls, two people that first meet in a mental institution and fall in love. Although in the end Ned and Rachel realize they may be too different to make the romance work.

If Neo Ned is only released on DVD then I will purchase the movie anyway. I just think its a sad that Neo Ned hasn’t found distribution yet? I have hope that Neo Ned will hopefully be released this this year.
