WASHINGTON: Every day around 8 a.m., foreign policy aides at Senator Barack Obama’s Chicago campaign headquarters send him two e-mails: a briefing on major world developments over the previous 24 hours and a set of questions, accompanied by suggested answers, that the candidate is likely to be asked about international relations during the day.
Behind the e-mail messages is a tight-knit group of aides supported by a huge 300-person foreign policy campaign bureaucracy, organized like a mini State Department, to assist a candidate whose limited national security experience remains a concern to many voters.
Obama’s core team is led by Susan Rice, an assistant secretary of state for African affairs in the Clinton administration, who has pushed for a tougher response to the crisis in the Darfur region of Sudan, and Anthony Lake, Bill Clinton’s first national security adviser, who was criticized for the administration’s failure to c...

Presidential Material: John McCain and Barack Obama
Every once in a while a comic book comes out that attracts the attention of the national media. This week we were lucky to have TWO! Unfortunately, neither of them has anything to do with comic books.
I am of course talking about the pictured John McCain and Barack Obama comic book biographies from IDW.
What I notice right away is that John McCain kind of has a creepy grin thing going, like The Smiler from Transmetropolitan, while Obama looks ... more

The steel mills and coal mines of western Pennsylvania helped fuel the nation’s economic engine. Today, old factory shells and boarded-up storefronts stand as bleak reminders of those once-prosperous times.
But the voters in working-class enclaves such as this still are a sought-after prize in presidential politics, and many are belatedly backing Democratic nominee Barack Obama.
In the Democratic primaries, working-class whites consistently supported Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton. Later po... more
Paging Bill Clinton From: electionbid2008.com Post Date: 2008-10-10 00:07:41
Dammit but we need someone to bite his lip and lie to us convincingly right now:
There’s nothing wrong with the American economy that can’t be fixed by what’s right with the American economy.... more
As children, many of us were scolded for telling a lie -- even a little white lie. In fact, we were told about the first President of the United States, George Washington, who, as a little boy had chopped down his father’s cherry tree with a hatchet. Little George could not tell a lie, so he told his father what he had done. George Washington was to be an example for us all.
The truth of the matter is that the story about George and the cherry tree was a lie ... or rather, a fictitious... more
I was recently at a political rally where Bill Clinton was the speech giver. If you’ve never seen Clinton in person, he’s pretty much a rock star. He draws thousands of cheering fans and rolls with a huge personal entourage that includes burly bodyguards and Secret Service. Clinton has MASSIVE social value and attracts crowds just by walking. No joke, the guy is more popular than Jagger or Brad Pitt.
I had a jarring epiphany after the rally. Superstar celebrities have no need for structured ... more

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney endorsed Sen. John McCain as the Republican nominee for president and asked his delegates to back the Arizona senator at the party’s convention this summer.
"I am honored today to give my full support to Sen. McCain’s candidacy for the presidency of the United States," Romney said at a Boston news conference with his former bitter rival McCain at his side.
"I’m officially endorsing his candidacy and t... more

DHIMMITUDE IN AMERICA: [Rod Dreher] I went to hear historian Bat Ye’or speak today. She’s on a short tour of the U.S., speaking about jihad and dhimmitude, which is the oppressive, second-class state under which Jews and Christians conquered by Islamic forces are forced to live. Bat Ye’or, who has been addressing groups on American college campuses, said she was so stunned by what she’d observed at universities tha... more
