McCain Looking More and More Desperate...
After watching today's back-to-back coverage of the two major campaign events on CNN, I have concluded that McCain's bag of gimmickry is running on empty. The substantive, issues-specific rally of Obama-Biden lent an air of confidence in my Democratic choice. Here is what the L.A. Times has to say... Sign in to see full entry.
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin Draws a Pass on Nude Photos
After my usual scrutiny of world headlines this morning, I conclude that there is no interest in the nude photo flap vis-a-vis Presumptive Republican Vice Presidential Nominee Sara Palin. I am glad about that. I feel that she should be judeged on what she's done with her life the last two or three... Sign in to see full entry.

Obama Stretches Six-Point Lead to Eight: 49-41
McCain has moved to blunt the convention bounce for Obama. McCain was up two points, Gallup Poll Daily tracking, before the DNC convention. A ten-point bounce puts Obama up by eight points -- BEFORE Obama's RECORD SPEECH, heard by fifty million Americans. The next few days will tell. Did the McCain... Sign in to see full entry.
McCain Choice for VP Signals Silliness - Countering Obama's Seriousness
Sarah Palin is my choice for most interesting flavor-of-the month politician, but she doesn't rise to the level of an Obama, a Biden, or a Hillary Clinton. In fact, the insult here is to fly the women's flag and assume that the hard-fought 18 million Hillary voters would automatically salute.... Sign in to see full entry.
A CANDIDATE UNPREPARED TO BE PRESIDENT - NOT OBAMA!
She's drop-dead gorgeous, intelligent, friendly, caring, empathetic. She'd make a great teacher, or priest. She's a newcomer governor. Here's the wire from CNN. It's official. Palin, 44, is a first-term governor who unseated incumbent Gov. Frank Murkowski in the Republican primary in 2006 and went... Sign in to see full entry.
2008 -" Something Stirring in the Nation"
It's official. The country is ready for a changa and Barack is the official nominee for change. "There is something stirring in the nation;" so proclaims the Des Moines Register.

Gallup Has McCain At 46%, Obama At 44% - Daily Tracking
I wonder why George Gallup went to the Daily Tracking Poll this year? Was he envious of the Rasmussen Daily Tracking? At first no one paid any attention to Rasmussen, but it always got averaged in to the weekly Poll of Polls. Yet, for both, times and this culture have changed. Now, I have never been...

Keith Olbermann Calls It Real Practical Unity
Hillary told us in no uncertain terms last night that we want our 18 million votes to go to Obama. Bill told us tonight that Barack was worthy and ready. He said it repeatedly. It was one of his great speeches. Now we know why Barack decided to open up the convention to the Clintons. They know how... Sign in to see full entry.
What She Said, What She Meant part 2
Here is a clip from the Hillary address, as long as I am sitting here waiting for the bus, and Ariala is tired of politics. No better inspiration exists than being an annoyance to the queen. "Barack Obama is my candidate. And he must be our president." "...my candidate..." She means "I think he will... Sign in to see full entry.
