After watching this video, we will try not hold McCain accountable for his superbly ignorant supporters, but it gets harder every day.

Es muss übrigens die Frage erlaubt sein. ob die ganze Aktion zu dem jetzt vom McCain-Lager schmutziger geführten Wahlkampf passt.

This is a pretty hilarious Web Commercial from Mr. Sincere McDignity, “That One.” It makes the obvious point that if you are a dumb libtard who is somehow winning the race, you will comically start celebrating before you reach the actual finish line, and you will FAIL, and a terrible giant-bobble-head Walnuts McCain will beat you, the way the Desert Tortoise beat the Jackrabbit.

Democrats may tax health benefits - The Boston Globe WASHINGTON - In the last month of the presidential campaign, it was one of Barack Obama and Joe Biden’s strongest attack lines: John McCain, they warned, would “tax your healthcare benefits for the first time ever.”But now, some Congressional Democrats in charge of health reform are talking about doing just that. ... more

Welcome to Vichy America
This was not just another election. The last time we had a presidential election, the Left tried to get a brazen traitor elected - namely John Kerry. This new President from the Left is even more than that. Obama was no traitor, because he never was really on our side in the first place. Obama was really a foreign candidate - in spirit, funding, and citizenship.

Yesterday, I noted an AP story on the recent contempt of Congress vote that, well… had a few problems.
In the least troubling of the errors, the reporter — Laurie Kellman — misidentified Rep. Jon Porter (R-NV) as a Democrat.
OK, not such an awful mistake. At least, not by itself. And the AP’s Director of Media Relations, Paul Colford, e-mailed to point out that the AP had in fact already put out a corrected version of the article.
But Kellman didn’t... more

Tonight’s schedule, with pledged delegates in parenthesis):
Vermont (15), 7 p.m. ET
Ohio (141), 7:30 p.m. ET
Rhode Island (21) 9 p.m. ET
Texas (193) 9 p.m. ET, but El Paso is in a different time zone, so closes an hour later. And, to make things extra complicated, the caucuses begin after the polls close.
Vermont will get called quickly for Obama. The rest should take a while to report winners. And Texas, sheesh, that one will be conf... more
The Obama campaign may be planning ahead (something the Clinton campaign never thought of, apparently), but it’s clear that they’re also paving the way for a serious push to knock Clinton out of the race this week.
