So in reaction to a stinker of a campaign he was running, McCain wanted Lieberman. That was nixed by state GOP chairs (Andrea Mitchell reports) so he substitutes a gimmick for a vision on the advice of Karl Rove and tries for the mantle of change-lite. Was the Sarah Palin choice supposed to make women flock to McCain ? Some, particularly women leaning toward a Republican ticket or who share Palin’s staunch anti-abortion views, see it as a winning choice that they can happily embrace. But others, particularly the undecided women McCain is trying to reach, say this is the wrong woman, lacking experience and on the wrong side of the issues, like abortion, the Iraq war and the environment, that matter most to them.

I'm about to head out to the airport. But I thought this might be worth throwing into the blog-o-matic. From a reader:Jonah,
K-Lo posted a link to a DE site on the Katie's restaurant thing. An eagle-eyed commentator there pointed out that CNN has changed the debate transcript to read: "Can I respond? Look, all you have to do is go down Union Street with me in Wilmington OR go to Katie's Restaurant or walk into Home Depot with me where I spend a lot of time..." (Emphasis ... more
Arbitrarily casting a vote for a presidential candidate from one of the two best known parties based on whether or not he’s expected to win would be like handing your ballot to the media or to McCain or Obama and letting them vote for you. We’ve just been majorly swindled by the government and Wall Street. Did your candidate act on this in a way that you find acceptable? This was no small issue. If McCain or Obama win this election, we will be represented in the White House in the s... more

I’ve noticed I haven’t put much that’s positive on my blog and when this happened I thought it be fun to blog about. So anyway, it all started on Thanksgiving when my brother, my momma and I were all sitting around after dinner bored out of our minds.

I’d been dieing to see Wall-E sin... more
