Obama: Numbers Crunching
This is in response to those who have emailed me with their assertions that the “citizens of America” voted for Barack Obama by a landslide. The real numbers hardly support this. Black Americans make up 31% of registered voters. Only 13% of those voted for Obama Out of 300 million Americans, only 1/3 voted in this year’s election Out of that 1/3, only 63 million Americans voted for Obama. That’s 63 million out of 300 million Americans. Hardly a landslide Stocks fell ov

Barack Obama Listed As “Barack Osama” On Certain New York Ballots.
The Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama’s last name is spelled “Osama” on some 300 absentee ballots mailed out this week to voters in Rensselaer County. One politician pointed out that the letters “s” and “b” are not in the same proximity on the keyboard. “Of all the letters to hit by mistake,” County Democratic Chairman Tom Wade said. “Unfortunately it is a mistake which negatively impacts our Democratic candidate for president.”

Riussia Calls Out Obama (already?)
Not even 4 hours after Sen. Barack Obama was elected president of the US, Russia’s president Dmitry Medvedev announced he was deploying nuclear weapons and pointing them directly at the US. This video only discusses the short-range defense missiles Russia has deployed to counter attack Pentagon’s missile defense systems. Fox News doesn’t mention Russia’s long range nuclear missiles being pointed at the US. Hmmm, I wonder why? Medvedev delayed making his announcement until 4 hours

McCain Feels The Fury Of His Own Supporters After Calling Obama A 'Decent Person' [They Weren't Saying Boo-Urns]
At a rally in Lakeville, Minnesota last night, Senator John McCain attempted to calm his supporters' fears by assuring them that Senator Barack Obama is, indeed, a "decent person and a person that you do not have to be scared of as president of the United States." How did the crowd respond? They booed, of course. For when you create a culture of supporters who enjoying spewing venom, you can't control when, where, and at whom they are going to spew it. The crowd was clearly upset that McCain h

McCain campaigns for Obama at McCain event?
At this late stage in the election, Republican nominee for President John McCain would undoubtedly prefer not to promote rival Barack Obama at one of his own campaign rallies. That’s what he had to do yesterday. More than once. State of the campaign There’s plenty of criticism that McCain brought this on himself because of his campaign’s tenor over the last two weeks. Then there are others who believe that questions about Obama’s past dealings with questionable characters are l

McCain’s Tour of Contrition
As John McCain trails Obama in the polls, he’s crawling back to David Letterman to apologize for standing him up to go save the world do an interview with Katie Couric. As you’ll recall, Letterman tore him a new asshole on national television for that little stunt. McCain is scheduled to appear on the program on Thursday. Should be interesting.

FRANK RICH: MASTER OF THE MOMENT
The NY Times Opinionator writes a devastating piece about the McCain-Palin campaign’s attempts in recent weeks to ”brand [Obama] as a potential killer and an accessory to past attempts at murder.” “By the time McCain asks the crowd ”Who is the real Barack Obama?” it’s no surprise that someone cries out ”Terrorist!” The rhetorical conflation of Obama with terrorism is complete. It is stoked further by the repeated invocation of Obama’s middle name b

Elisabeth Hasselbeck Now Supports Obama?
Yesterday on The View, everyone was itching to find out how she was going to react to the fact that Barack Obama was elected as the next president of the United States of America.  I was blown away by Elisabeth Hasselbeck’s sudden switch to being a supporter of Obama after all these months of dragging him, and his wife, through the mud and campaigning for the Republican party.  She said some pretty amazing things about him and, while I agree with what she said, I’m so confused by her
