So as you know, the right has been getting a wee bit angry of late. It’s understandable; while elections are never over ’til the ballots are all counted, this one’s entering the late innings, and barring some sort of huge, game-changing event, it’s hard to see Barack Obama losing the election.
The right, of course, has been searching in vain for said game-changer; they hoped Bill Ayers would be it, but he wasn’t. Indeed, all attacking Obama over Ayers did was feed anger at Obama, leading to eliminationist rhetoric and scary, mob-like McCain rallies. Not something that’s a positive for the McCain campaign.

Obama was really a foreign candidate - in spirit, funding, and citizenship.

Glass-half-full spin: Obama’s taken Clinton’s best shot on the best terrain she’ll have for the entire primary season, and only lost about 10 delegates.

Would the Democratic candidates for president please stop playing footsie with the Republican party ?
In a Cabinet-style setting, surrounded by retired military leaders, Sen. Hillary Clinton said the public should ask whether Democratic presidential rival Barack Obama has met the criteria needed to become the nation’s commander in chief.
