Why would the Financial Times endorse…

Barack Obama for President if Barack Obama is, as the more frenzied Republicans are now claiming, a Socialist? The answer, of course, is that Senator Obama is nothing like a Socialist. Indeed, Senator Obama is now capitalism’s best hope for rescue, just as FDR was the savior of capitalism in the 1930s.
Nonetheless, a campaign is [...]

John McCain is very confused

Does John McCain think Spain is an American enemy that we will have to invade, occupy, and liberate? Or does he just not know who the hell the Prime Minister of Spain is? It’s probably the latter, but with John McCain, you can’t know for sure. JMM at TPM has got some good stuff [...]

McCain surrogate Fiorina to “disappear”

Looks like the McCain campaign is going to go Chilean on Carly Fiorina. Perhaps you recall McCain advisor Carly Fiorina saying neither John McCain or Sarah Palin are qualified to run a major corporation. [She said the same thing about Obama and Biden.] It was an obvious gaffe and dominated the cable news chatfests for [...]

Is John McCain going crazy?

I don’t know if John McCain is so blinded by love that he has no idea what he’s saying or if he just generally has no idea what he’s saying. This is from an interview with a reporter in Maine:
At one point, he says that Palin “was right” on Russia and on Iran. It’s unclear [...]

Both CBS News and YouTube have had to take action against John McCain because of his persisent deception.
YouTube has removed a webad that casts Sarah Palin as the victim of sexism on the request of CBS, whose anchor Katie Couric was featured in the ad.
“One of the great lessons of that campaign is the continued [...]

Even the Washington Post…

QUESTION: What do you have to do to make a McCain-and-GOP-lovin’ editorial page such as the one at The Washington Post declare itself disappointed with the McCain campaign?
ANSWER: Gin up phony outrage over the use of the phrase “lipstick on a pig” and falsely accuse Senator Obama of favoring mandatory sex ed for children [...]

That poor Sarah Palin

Republicans are whining that Sarah Palin is being picked on because she’s a woman. And because her 17-year-old daughter is pregnant. And because…well, just because. Jon Stewart destroys it. Enjoy. [Warning: Republicans who watch this have a 47% chance of experiencing SHES -- spontaneous head explosion syndrome.]
