Palin puts in strong debate peformance
I was a little bit worried about tonight’s debate after Governor Palin’s less than fantastic showing with Katie Couric, but I think she did very well tonight. It was a particularly impressive performance given the fact that the moderator is an Obama-supporter who is writing a book about Obama to be released in January. Did anyone else watching the raw [...]

30. September 2008
This is more than a little creepy… And more… Note that these songs are just as substantive as every one of Obama’s speeches. Change the world, yes we can, la, la, la…

29. September 2008
There are apparently some rumors going around that Sarah Palin’s daughter Bristol is about to get married to Levi Johnston after she turns 18 in October. This doesn’t seem to have really hit the mainstream media yet, but it does make sense to do this sooner rather than later… There is already some urgency to the [...]

28. September 2008
Barack Obama’s presidential campaign has contacted several media outlets in Ohio and Pennsylvania in an attempt to prevent advertisements by the National Rifle Association from airing. The ads, which outline Obama’s historically antagonistic attitude against the Second Amednment, have been inexplicably disputed by the campaign as lacking basis in fact. Politico has posted a memo from [...]

28. September 2008
Hendrik Hertzberg of The New Yorker has, for lack of anything else to criticize, taken issue with Sarah Palin’s distinctive way of speaking. Although generally considered a staple of upper Midwesterners - immortalized in media such as A Prarie Home Companion - expressions like “there in the ______ (where I/we are)” are apparently mysteriously unfamiliar [...]

24. September 2008
Apparently, Barack Obama feels his campaign is more important than his work in the United State Senate at this critical time in American history. With our economy on the verge of collapse, and the Congress frozen in deadlock, Senator McCain announced today that he was suspending his campaign and returning to Washington to tackle [...]

21. September 2008
In further evidence that this isn’t your normal election year, Democrat Barack Obama has a shocking small 5% lead in New York state. That’s according to a survey released last week by Siena College. The poll gives Obama the support of 46% of the Empire State’s voters. That compares with 41% for [...]

21. September 2008
Al Franken, the former “Saturday Night Live” actor and writer who is now running for a U.S. Senate seat in Minnesota, helped to craft the opening sketch from last night’s episode of SNL. Franken didn’t actually write the material, but apparently he called current SNL head writer Seth Meyers and pitched him the basic [...]

21. September 2008
Well, it’s a rare situation this year. But it looks like the Republican Party might actually gain a seat in the U.S. House from Pennsylvania. A new poll in Pennsylvania’s 11th Congressional District spells bad news for controversial Congressman Paul Kanjorski. The survey, conducted by Franklin & Marshall College, shows Hazleton Mayor and [...]

18. September 2008
There is an economic meltdown going on right now that is shaking the American economy to its very core and destroying billions in wealth. And the American people are looking for someone to blame. But who is responsible? Well, it’s very easy to argue that some of these hugely irresponsible Wall Street executives [...]
