Lanny Davis posted a blog on The Hill today entitled: Recent Polling Data Show Serious Concerns About Sen. Obama’s ‘Electability’ Over Sen. McCain vs. Sen. Clinton’s (Lanny Davis) Very interesting. I saw that and thought there was a bunch of polls I missed. Quickly I went to Real Clear Politics and looked at the recent […]
This is a man who can take whatever the Republicans want to throw at him: “We are not standing on the brink of recession because of forces beyond our control,” Obama told a town hall forum in Austin. “This was not an inevitable part of the business cycle. It was a failure of leadership in […]
McCain trying to get back at Obama today: McCain criticized Obama for saying in Tuesday night’s Democratic debate that, after U.S. troops were withdrawn, as president he would act “if al-Qaida is forming a base in Iraq.” “I have some news. Al-Qaida is in Iraq. It’s called `al-Qaida in Iraq,’” McCain told a crowd in […]
George Wallace Jr was endorsed in 2005 by John McCain when Wallace was running for Lt. Gov. of Alabama. Wallace was a frequent speaker to the Council of Conservative Citizens, basically the Klan without the sheets. It would seem that endorsing someone like this is much worse than being endorsed by a similar person. So […]
The Cincinnati Enquirer got to the bottom of it: Radio talk show host Bill Cunningham told listeners today that Mike DeWine, John McCain’s Ohio campaign chairman, and county prosecutor Joe Deters asked him over lunch last week to speak at the McCain rally. They wanted him “to throw some red meat to the crowd… To […]
Willy Cunningham is Cincinnati’s own version of Bill O’Reilly, Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter all wrapped into one. Wait – he is probably worse than that. Anyways, the McCain campaign decided to have him speak at an event today. Here is what happened: Republican John McCain quickly denounced the comments of a radio talk show […]
I guess John McCain should just concede to the Democrats now: About 8,000 of the 30,000 “surge” troops sent to Iraq in 2007 will not go home as planned this summer, the Pentagon said Monday. Support troops — including helicopter crews, supply units, military police and headquarters staff — will still be needed when the […]
At first it sounded like it, but then John McCain retracted his statement that if he can’t convince the nation Iraq is succeeding he will “lose”. It is a turn around from a couple of months ago, when McCain said the country would be fine with our troops in Iraq for 100 years. Of course […]
The rumors are flying that it could be true: Josh Romney, one of former Gov. Mitt Romney’s five sons, says it’s “possible” his father may rejoin the race for the White House, either as a vice presidential candidate or seek to become the Republican Party’s standard bearer if the campaign of Sen. John McCain falters. […]
Un-fucking-believable. This is the poll CNN ran on their front page: I have a couple suggested polls: Is John King to attracted to John McCain to cover the Presidential race impartially. Does Wolf Blitzer get on your nerves? If you have any ideas, let’s hear them. Ben Smith has more on this.
