Time to Rebuild
If you have ever wondered what a landslide looks like, I think this is it. Granted, Clinton received more electoral votes in both 92' and 96', but after these past couple elections I think that this qualifies. I've been doing a little blog surfing th...
My Thoughts on The Election of Obama
Joe The Idiot? You Decide!
This video is crazy! I love how Rick Sanchez plays this fool. Joe should just go away for his own good because the left leaning media organizations are making him look foolish and he is playing right into it. Face it Joe, John and Sarah lost the elec...
Center Right Country?
I've been hearing a lot about America being a Center Right country and I think that is pretty accurate, but I think we all learned last night that America will go the other way if they don't like what they are seeing. I don't know whether or not this...
Election Day
Today is the day we have been waiting on for so long, and now it is time to get out to the polls and cast your ballot. There are also a lot of initiatives out there that may affect you or a loved one, so try to understand the issues before you cast a...
Political Canvassing
I figured when we moved from New Hampshire to Texas we wouldn't have to put up with the door to door political canvassers and phone calls, boy was I wrong. The last several elections Texas has been "red", but living outside of Austin you would never ...
Palin Pranked By Montreal Comics
Oh my friggin God, how could this have possibly happened. Here is a link to the story at the Huffington Post. I just found out about this thing this afternoon and had to post it. If you are a McCain/Palin voter or supporter you probably do not want t...
McCain on SNL
I loved the skit last night on SNL and I really wanted to post it on my blog for those of you who might have missed it, but instead, every idiot on YouTube claim to have the video available but when you click to watch it you get this stupid thing (or...
Early Voting
There has been a decent sized controversy over the last few weeks as to whether or not it is foolish to go out and partake in early voting. Having rocked the early vote this year, I have to say it wasn't too bad. I think I waited in line for about a ...
Who Thinks Palin Was A Good Choice?
I just wanted to throw this question out there about a week before the election to get a feel what my visitors and readers think. Personally, I like her due to her fiery-ness and ability to rouse the base. I do however think she was a poor choice for...
9 Days Until Election Day; Will Democrats Increase Their Majorities?
We have finally broken into single digits! With only 9 days until the election the pressure is mounting in key swing states all across the nation. Barack Obama's campaign has been able to flip several red states (Virginia, New Mexico, Iowa) and has t...
The RNC And Polls
Has anyone else noticed that the RNC and Republican Party is not happy with the polling for this election? I understand that it is no fun to be behind, but lets face it, if a whole smattering of polls are conducted you just average the reliable ones ...
Those Robocalls
Am I the only one out there who thinks these things are just flat out weird? I haven't received one yet (probably because Texas isn't a swing state), and am glad. I try my best to live my life free of negativity and I definitely don't want to have my...
Boxers or Briefs or Depends?
John Kerry found himself back in the spotlight today after creating a fabulous sound-bite where he suggested that if McCain were to be faced with the question "Boxers or Briefs?", he would answer Depends. Personally, I think that was funny as hell. I...
McCainer'isms
Has anyone noticed the bizarre awkward mannerisms John McCain gives off at times. Whether he is making strange faces, cringing or visibly displaying crawling skin, we have watched John McCain do some puzzling things this election year. My personal fa...
18 Days Until Election Day
November 4th is coming! Hopefully everyone who has a stake in this (everybody?) is registered and ready to participate. The candidates have a little over two weeks to alleviate any fears or doubts in order to ascertain the highest office in the land...
Last Debate Thoughts
The debate last night was interesting. The debate offered some decent insight into both candidates feelings toward a variety of issues, but I'd like to focus on the candidates themselves. McCain definitely cam out swinging at Obama and took charge mo...
How Bad Will It Get
I guess that title could apply to a lot of things, the economy, McCain's campaign or even the Boston Red Sox World Series hopes. Today I want to hit on the first two. The economy rebounded in a big way a couple days ago to the tune of a 930+ point ra...
McCain Waves Goodbye To Pennsylvania
A week after the McCain campaign suspended their efforts in Michigan, it looks as though they may be making a full pull-out in Pennsylvania after new polling data suggests a double digit Obama lead in that state. In addition to the tough luck in Penn...
Dow Climbs and McCain Reclaims His Campaign
The Dow has really climbed this morning and afternoon, as I am typing this entry, the Dow is up over 800 points! Some people are saying that the bottom may have been reached and the rebound is beginning. I don't know how much of that I believe. I sti...
Take Notice
Has anyone noticed that there is a serious economic crisis facing this country and only one of our presidential candidates is talking about it? Is this not a giant elephant in the corner of the room or what? I may be beating a dead horse, but you hav...
Palin Abused Power
According to a report released in the early hours this morning, Gov. Sarah Palin has been found to have abused her power as governor in the now infamous "Troopergate" scandal. It will be interesting to see how both the McCain and Obama camps spin the...
Those Wily Candidates
With less than a month left of campaigning, both presidential candidates and their cronies have begun launching a series of attacks at one another. Unfortunately for the voters who will likely choose one or the other (3rd party anyone?) the campaign ...
Digging A Hole
The second debate is set for this evening in Tennessee and will likely be a "barn-burner". Both of the candidates have been exchanging barbs over each others past and how those pasts may effect the future. According to Obama, McCain will run the econ...
Post Debate Thoughts
Reminds me of the Michael Jackson video where they knife fight in a garage.Last nights debate went pretty well for all those involved. I was impressed by the performances of both Sen. Biden and Gov. Palin. It was a shame that the bar was set so low f...
Will Putin Rear His Head at Tonight's Debate?
The much anticipated Vice-Presidential debate begins tonight at 8 PM CT, in St. Louis, MO and will likely be a talking point for years to come. There has been much speculation as to whether the debate will be a debate or just an exercise in "vaguery"...
Putin Rears His Head
"Oh no, Putin is rearing his head again, lets run and get Sarah Palin she'll know what to do!"Sarah Palin is the gift that keeps on giving to Barack Obama and the Democrats. If I were John McCain or his campaign, I would find a way to remove her from...
Independent Debate Talkback
Unless you've been residing in a cave, you probably heard about this past weeks presidential debate between McCain and Obama. There has been a lot of spin going on the last few days and polls to "back up" all the claims from both sides. Currently, th...
Protests Nationwide
In addition to an unprecedented level of disdain for this bailout package, many residents of the largest cities in the United States are taking to the streets to display their discontent. While the politicians posture up on Capitol Hill, people in th...
Economic Rollercoaster
Economics aren't the most fun thing to blog about, but there sure is a lot of news these days. Naturally, due to the current conditions, today has been no different. As of 2:30 pm Central, Both the McCain and Obama presidential campaigns appear to be...
