Major Update: Yep, Obama is in a major slide in at least one poll: Barack Obama’s public image has eroded this summer amid a daily onslaught of attacks from Republican rival John McCain, leaving the race for the White House statistically tied, according to a Los Angeles Times/Bloomberg poll released today. Far more voters say […]

I could dig this! I think he’s considering Giuliani. – Might put NY in enough play to make Obama spend a lot of money there.  … The McCain campaign has already hired a Giuliani staffer as the unnamed veep’s communications director… Now that team would rock.

While we won the war in Iraq and have been pummeled by high gas prices and a mortgage scandal the Democrat Congress has been focused on dirt, watermelons, potatoes and vacuous non-binding resolutions: The 110th Congress, whose term officially ends in January, hasn’t passed any spending bills or attacked high gasoline prices.
