Not anymore. A new McClatchy/IPSOS poll finds Obama is the strong on the family values issue: On family values, a subject Republicans have used to court Christian conservatives and suburban moderates since the 1980s, likely voters now prefer Obama over McCain by 8 points. That’s up from 3 points in mid-September. Let’s ignore the fact […]
And this time we aren’t talking about John McCain, but rather his running mate: No wonder GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin harbors such hostility toward the mainstream media: her staff imposes limits on her access to it. During a fundraiser here that raised $800,000 last night, Palin admitted that her aides often dissuade her […]
This is pretty amazing and a show of how incompetent Sarah Palin really is: The campaign of vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin said the Alaska governor was unaware of a visit by Russian energy officials to Anchorage on Monday. Eight high-level officials from Gazprom, Russia’s state-controlled energy conglomerate, traveled to Anchorage earlier this week to […]
That’s what the McCain campaign has been doing and the proof is in their ads. The AP has done a study on this: MADISON, Wis. – Nearly every TV ad Republican John McCain ran last week was negative, compared to just 34 percent of those by Democrat Barack Obama, according to an analysis released Wednesday.

We have just endured eight years of “cowboy diplomacy” by George Bush. This has given us such zingers as “bring it on” and “we are going to conduct a crusade”.

Joe Biden is out on the campaign trail and man is he firing back at the Republican rhetoric we heard this week. Incidentally, Joe will be on Meet the Press tomorrow. He has been doing the Sunday talk show circuit since being picked as Obama’s running mate. I wonder how long before the wingnuts start […]
All we have heard out of Sarah Palin since her introduction to the American people eight days ago is the same speech. We have heard how she is a hockey mom and raised five great kids, including one with Downs Syndrome. What we haven’t heard is anything about her beliefs or vision in this country. […]
The Republicans are trying to get Sarah ready to debate Biden: Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman is among several national security experts helping brief Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin on foreign policy issues as she prepares to hit the campaign trail while cramming for a debate with her Democratic opponent, Sen. Joseph R. Biden Jr. […]
People have been asking when Hillary would hit the campaign trail, especially since the introduction of Sarah Palin. Well it looks like they were just waiting for the convention to end: Senator Barack Obama will increasingly lean on prominent Democratic women to undercut Gov. Sarah Palin and Senator John McCain, dispatching Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton […]
