Image by randihausken via Flickr You’ve probably seen this, but it’s astounding: The new national poll from Public Policy Polling (D) has an astonishing number about paranoia among the GOP base: Republicans do not think President Obama actually won the 2008 election — instead, ACORN stole it. I remember before the election last year, in [...]

Image by smiteme via Flickr Funny: Less than three months after resigning as governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin, the onetime vice presidential candidate, has completed her memoir. HarperCollins Publishers, which signed a multi-million dollar deal with Ms. Palin in May, said in a statement on Tuesday that it had moved up the publication date from [...]
Yes, I voted for Barack Obama. Twice. Before I voted for him the first time, I argued with fellow Democrats about why Obama was a better choice to be the Democratic nominee than Hillary Clinton was. After all, he represented a clean break with the past and had would have an ability to communicate with [...]
I come down on the side of weenie: Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman took another step Tuesday toward mending his relationship with Democrats, saying that Barack Obama‘s actions since winning the presidency have been “just about perfect.” “Everything that President-elect Obama has done since election night has been just about perfect, both in terms of a [...]
Krugman: You might think, perhaps hope, that Republicans will engage in some soul-searching, that they’ll ask themselves whether and how they lost touch with the national mainstream. But my prediction is that this won’t happen any time soon. Instead, the Republican rump, the party that’s left after the election, will be the party that attends [...]
What can I say?

On election eve, I find that I’m something like a child thinking about Tuesday. It’s like Christmas, New Year’s eve, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Presidents’ Day all rolled into one. But I don’t know how well I will cope with the next 48 hours. So much is at stake that I am fully of anxiety. How [...]
Funny: [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NGAYR7RHfQ&hl=en&fs=1] If you can’t click the viswo because you’re at work, the basic thrust of the piece it that one Shirley Nagle questioned trick-or-treating kids when they knocked on her door and wouldn’t give candy to kids whose parents support Obama. She even posted a sign outside her home that read: “No handouts for [...]
From the inbox: Obama/Biden vs McCain/Palin What if things were switched around?….. Think about it. Would the country’s collective point of view be different? Could racism be the culprit? Ponder the following: What if the Obamas had paraded five children across the stage, including a three-month old infant and an unwed, pregnant teenage daughter? What [...]
One Free Republic wing-nut wrote: Somebody pinch me and tell me this is all a bad dream. How can so many Americans not be listening to what this guy (Obama) is really saying? I refuse to believe that America will elect as POTUS this untested, unproven, unknown left-wing radical, who can’t make it one week [...]
