I was just reading this about McCain’s day yesterday and it really pissed me off: “So my friends, all the efforts we made in trying to make sure Americans understood that Sen. Obama wants to raise your taxes and he wants to increase your spending by $1 trillion, was the man who spoke for small […]
Yet another mob mentality at one of those McCain/Palin rallies. Remember – these are the people John McCain is “proud” of. Even when John McCain “set the record straight” with that old lady last week, think about what happened. When she said Obama was an Arab, McCain said ‘no – he’s a good guy”. That […]
You can’t select who ends up sitting on a board with you, but you sure as hell can select who works on your campaign. So perhaps John McCain needs to explain this to the American people: William Timmons, the Washington lobbyist who John McCain has named to head his presidential transition team, aided an influence […]
My God could Gwen Ifill have been any more slanted towards Biden? Ok – had to get that little joke out of my system. Despite having one hell of a cold, I managed to watch the whole thing. Honestly, it was exactly what I expected it to be. No massive screw ups from either candidate. […]
I am still without internet. I had the back up of dial-up until Monday when the phones went down. Those are back now, but the switching station is being run by a phone company truck at the end of my street, which is still without power. Hopefully I will be back at it by Monday. […]
This week has been totally dominated by fake outrage and a total silence on the issues from the McCain campaign. We’ve heard about lipstick, fish, teaching sex-ed to six year olds, and a plethora of lies from McCain and Palin. At the same time Obama has been talking about education, the economy, Iraq, the war […]
No – not Palin’s speech last night, but rather the review of Palin’s speech by James Fallows. As I watched last night I really thought that she was doing a hell of a job at energizing the base, but the people she really need to connect to weren’t impressed. I find out I am not […]
Joe Scarborough was just talking about the attention of Palin’s daughter is unprecedented. The media attacking a daughter is unprecedented? What about Rush Limbaugh and his attacks against Chelsea Clinton. The mouth pieces on the right thought nothing of attacking a 13 year old girl. Hell McCain even jumped in on attacking Chelsea. So I […]
John McCain is floating the idea of giving his speech from the “disaster zone” Gustav leaves. My God – the storm hasn’t even brought it’s fury and McCain is looking into ways to politicize it. And what the hell happened to the excuse after Katrina that Bush going down there would only hinder response? So […]
Hillary just said that in her speech and in the background you could hear all the pundits scream as their dream of drama in the party was crushed. And as Bob points out, Schweitzer gave one hell of a speech and totally eviscerated John McCain. Of course the pundits try to say the Democrats aren’t […]
