Sarah Palin’s Nomination in Doubt?
Shaun Mullen of the once Moderate Voice says that Sarah Palin’s nomination for Republican Party’s vice-presidential slot is in jeopardy: Party elders not in the thrall of Phyllis Schlafly and James Dobson understand that McCain’s candidacy already is crippled by his own lackadaisical performance on the stump and twin albatrosses glowering on his shoulders by…
RNC Raids
Glen Greenwald writes that Minneapolis police were out in force today, “dropping in on” some of the Twin Cities’ hippy crowd and making them feel right at home in Minnesota. Looks like we’re gonna party like it’s 1968 again. After that little brouhaha in Chicago, no one in authority wants to see riots in their city. …
Dissecting Obama’s Acceptance Speech
24 hours ago Democrats were salivating all over themselves after Barack Obama gave his speech accepting their nomination for president. Since then I’ve been waiting to have a go at some of his statements. It almost seems pointless now that John McCain’s selection of Sarah Palin as his running mate has blown Obama out of…
Liberals on Palin
Amanda Marcotte says that Sarah Palin is a clever choice for McCain to have made but immediately heads to the abortion issue to disqualify her, dissing Palin as: a female anti-choicer, a straight-up sexist colluder. The base will be appeased that she shares their anti-woman sympathies, but the swing voter will simply see that she’s…
McCain and Sarah Palin
John McCain has picked Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as the bottom half of his ticket. Having never heard of her before there’s little to be said at this point, although the lack of notoriety Palin brings to the party speaks for itself in some ways. CNN: Palin, 44, who’s in her first term as…
Celebrity Limitations
I like Kid Rock’s music but not his foul-mouthed lyrics, many of which are nearly blue as the writing on certain not-to-be-named liberal web sites. But I have to give Kid this – he knows his limitations and professes to live within them, at least in regard to politics. "I truly believe that people like…
Democratic Revolution?
Hillary Clinton says she’s moved on after losing a tightly contested race for the Democratic presidential nomination. I hope that’s not true and that she uses her speech tonight to say the one true thing that’s in her heart: "Vote for me! I would make a better president than Barack Obama and here’s why…" Obama…
Conventions Shakes Nuts Loose
Judging from these two stories, the loony-toon tree is being shaken pretty hard out in Denver and the nuts are falling to Earth. First, Alex Jones of InfoWars was caught on video stalking and harassing Michelle Malkin outside the Denver Mint. Evidently that’s Alex’s idea of being clever and accomplishing something for his cause. Wrong. …
Only Racists Vote for McCain
That’s the pile of bullshit that Jacob Weisberg dropped at Slate this morning. Small wonder that the majority of Americans now recognize a distinct liberal bias in the media. How could they not? Weisberg: If it makes you feel better, you can rationalize Obama’s missing 10-point lead on the basis of Clintonite sulkiness, his slowness…
