Barack Obama is showing that arrogance again. Yesterday morning Chris Plante played clips of Obama saying [paraphrasing] “I plan to stay in touch with Treasury Secretary Paulson and the leaders of Congres to ensure a bi-partisan answer to this crisis is forthcoming“. It was a ridiculous act of playing President. By the afternoon McCain decided […]

Boy, one really has to wonder what has happened to the Democrats as they go sliding off their mental coils over Palin. Check out this whopper: Rep. Alcee Hastings told an audience of Jewish Democrats Wednesday that they should be wary of Republican VP nominee Sarah Palin because “anybody toting guns and stripping moose don’t […]

Major Update: Here is the actual video evidence of the ‘speed dating’ sexist remark. And it is becoming the talking point I said it would be (here and here). – end update The Situation Room (the lair of “Wolf” Blitzer – how’s that for irony) has done it again. I am fairly certain it is simply […]

Which campaign has momentum? Well, we have some pictures from this week to answer the question. Here is an Obama event in deep blue Wisconsin where Obama attracted only 2/3rds the crowd McCain-Palin did a few days earlier. Estimates are 6,000 People. Â And here is a McCain-Palin event in deep blue Pennsylvania: The evidence […]

Wait just one second. As I have noted many times the Troopergate saga is a political hit job, and recently one of our readers connected the dots to show it is probably a coordinated smear between Palin’s political enemies (which she has earned many in her efforts to clean up corruption). The media is relying […]

To coin a phrase, when Obama said “the gloves were coming off” he clearly meant that the dirty tricks ‘sock puppets’ (people who pretend to be other than they are on blogs and websites in order to post fake and fradulent information) were going on. And he and his campaign just got caught with their […]

OK this is the biggest poll shocker I have seen since the Palin selection for VP: Since picking Sarah Palin as his running mate, John McCain has obliterated what had been a 34-percentage-point deficit in a poll of likely women voters on the question of which candidate has a “better understanding of women and what is important†to them. […]

Just got a call from LJStrata who just heard about Rangel’s comment that Governor Palin is ‘disabled‘. First off, LJStrata has a life, unlike me the political junky and blog-hog. She spends her time raising the kids, doing the company back room work, volunteering for the community, keeping the home together. She is actually an […]

To over use a Jeff Foxworthy phrase, but “I are one”. Too many urbanites think being out in the country is akin to being down a few IQ points. Funny thing is (especially here in the south) those country drawls you here are a great IQ filter in themselves. Anyone who thinks a slow southern […]

Sadly, partisan politics poisoned a non-partisan rally against the trip to the UN (and US) by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Hillarty Clinton brought politics into the event when she bowed out on the new Sarah Palin was aligned with all the other sane people against Iran and its violent intentions. Then the DNC threatened the event financially – […]
