Everyone in Politics Going Crazy!!!!!!!
First up, a clip of a baffling, career-ending gaffe at a Joe Biden event in Tampa, followed by footage from a Pennsylvanian McCain-Palin rally, in which the Republican nominee for president makes one of the most chilling and revealing verbal missteps we've ever heard. Sounds like everyone needs a damn nap. Oct 8, 2008 · posted by Cord Jefferson, MollyGood · Link · 34 Responses Related Posts • 10.08.08: Q: What's Wrong with This Picture? (Com

Details On Today’s Latest McCain/Palin KKK Rally
The McCain campaign’s angry tone this week has produced frightening anecdotes from every McCain/Palin rally about murdering the treasonous terrorist Barack Obama. Wingnuts are seeing Obama solidify his leads and are genuinely frightened that this Muslim might actually do it! And what does that make them do? Be even “wingnuttier,” of course, and that means that the mob rallies are getting more primitive and violent by the day. Today’s rally — “the angriest McPalin rally ev

Obama Buys Your TV, Cancels 'Knight Rider' [TV]
Barack Obama purchased a full half-hour of airtime on CBS and NBC. His very special infomercial is set to air Wednesday, October 29. John McCain probably can't afford to do this! It's also not unprecedented: Ross Perot did it, and it was hilarious and awesome. Also they used to do it all the time in the 1960s. But jeez, a half-hour is a long time! We hope he has a musical guest or something? Here is the best part of this news: "The buy will push CBS comedy 'The New Adventures of Old Christine' to 8:30 p.m.

HILARY ON PALIN: “COMPOSED AND EFFECTIVE”
In a phone interview today on Ryan Seacrest’s KIIS-FM radio show, she, of course, had raves for Joe Biden, but what about her thoughts on Sarah Palin? Hillary on Biden: “Joe Biden was great. He put forward a flawless performance. I, like probably everybody else watching, was so moved by the authentic grief that caught in his throat when he talked about his own personal experience.” (During the debate, Biden got choked up while recalling a car accident that killed his wife and daughter an

Biden says attacks from McCain camp are ‘beyond disappointing’
(CNN) -- Sen. Joe Biden on Wednesday charged that Sen. John McCain’s campaign is trying to "appeal to fear" with their latest round of negative attacks. Sen. Joe Biden says Sen. John McCain’s campaign has become "erratic." Biden said Gov. Sarah Palin was raising "the most outrageous inferences" and said the attacks on Sen. Barack Obama are "beyond disappointing" and "wrong."

McCain Or Obama - Which Candidate Has Your Favorite Celeb Endorsed?

Diddy Blogs, Calls Us 'Boys And Girls'
Can someone please take the camera away from Diddy? The obnoxious mouth-breather took to the Internets again last night in hopes of encouraging all the "boys and girls" to vote for Barack Obama after John McCain referred to him as "that one" during the latest debate. Does Diddy have a right to be angry about this? Sure. But the way he refers to his viewers as "boys and girls" reminds us of John McCain's usage of "my friends": Both send us into fits of blind rage.

Paris Hilton Gets Advice for 'Fake' Presidential' Campaign
Socialite Paris Hilton released a new video in her bid to become the next "fake" president, and this time solicited advice from actor Martin Sheen, who played the president on the television show "The West Wing." The FunnyOrDie video starts with clips from a Hollywood-type party, before zeroing in on the kitchen, where Hilton and Sheen are sitting at the table. The clip is a follow-up to her August video where she got even with Republican presidential nominee John McCain for using her image in an ad mock

Ifill: Palin "Blew Me Off"
Gwen Ifill joined Tom Brokaw and others on Meet the Press this morning as part of a panel discussing the VP debate. She describes how she was put in a tough position as moderator because of both candidates' styles. "Joe Biden decided that he was going to debate John McCain, and she decided she was going to give a stump speech to the American people, there's very little a moderator can do," said Ifill. Below is the clip from MTP, and after the jump, check out Saturday Night Live's interpretation of the debat

Diddy’s Vlogging Again!
Here’s his thoughts on McCain’s use of the term “that one” during the debates last night. Between “that one” and “my friends,” all anyone can seem to talk about today is John McCain’s lingual pecadillos. One of my friends changed her status message this morning to “THAT ONE ‘08″ and I thought that was kind of a riot. Before you leave a comment, please make sure you've read our Guide to Commenting.

McCain: '100-percent negative' ads
Eleven points down in the newest national tracking poll, Republican John McCain has gone "nearly 100 percent negative'' in his campaign's TV advertising, an independent study reports today. The watchword of McCain's ads about Democratic rival Barack Obama: "Dangerous,'' and "He lied.'' Earlier in the campaign, when the two appeared virtually tied for a long time in the tracking polls, the campaign ads of the senior senator from Arizona dismissed the junior senator from Illiinois as "dangerously unp

McCain Supporter Blasts "Hooligan" Obama
Telling the Republican presidential candidate that he's "mad" at the "socialist taking over our country." The man then went on to blast those "hooligans" Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi. The crowd at it up - and so did McCain, who concluded, "Well, I — I think I got the message. Could I just say, the gentleman is right. The Democrats have been in the majority for the last two years. Have we seen any improvement?" The crowd replied with a boisterous "no.&

McCain ad pushes 'risky' Obama theme
The McCain campaign has a new negative web ad which seeks to further its effort to fuel questions in some voters' minds about Sen. Barack Obama. It's all a part of the "who is the real Obama?" theme the Republican nominee's campaign has been frenetically pushing in recent days. The ad's thrust is that Obama knew Ayers better than the Democratic nominee has let on. Of course, the conclusion it hopes voters will reach through this allegation is that Obama hasn't been forthcoming on his ties to Ayers so how

Q: What's Wrong with This Picture?
Most assessments today of last night's presidential debate are grim. Under a picture of Barack Obama and John McCain squared off in Tennessee, the Drudge Report presented a single-word critique: "Boring." Politico is calling it the "worst debate ever." We beg to differ. Instead, how about worst electorate ever? The negative general consensus about the debate is summed up tidily in the Times of London's "Gnawingly dull debate won't halt the Obama Tide": Sena

"Shadow Of Death" Haunts Obama In Halloween Display
Just when you thought the anti-Obama madness couldn't get any more insane, Georgia woman Melissa Neese erected this timely Halloween display, which includes both John McCain and Barack Obama. Note, however, that Obama has the "shadow of death" looming behind him, while McCain's a pristine as could be. Despite acknowledging her McCain preference, Neese insists she's not trying to be incendiary: “It’s kind of like the shadow of death behind Obama. We’re kind of more of McCain

Analysis: Personality trumping experience in 2008 race?
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Throughout the 2008 presidential campaign, the argument of experience has been tossed around a lot at both Sen. Barack Obama and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has been criticized for inexperience in foreign affairs. But at the end of the day, do voters really care that much? The question is a big one, because it often comes from the gut. And right now, the gut is filled with fear because of the economic crisis plaguing the country. Conservative columnist Dav

Diddy Enraged Over McCain "That One" Remark
Holy smokes, Diddy has had it up to HERE with John McCain and his calling Barack Obama "that one" at last night's debate. Apparently this does not sit well with Diddy, and he seems to believe that McCain is basically calling Obama "his boy" and the like. Look out, McCain—Diddy says "I'm going to the polls RIGHT NOW." So if you want to find Diddy this month to say hi, just look for the black man in crazy clothes shivering on the street. Yeah, no, not that guy—that's just another of the growing ra

Show-Stopper: Anthony Weiner's Palin-Biden Joke
Here’s Representative Anthony Weiner saying that the vice presidential debate proved “undeniably, undeniably, we saw a vice presidential candidate who had nice legs. I won’t dispute that.” Weiner, who is dating Hillary Clinton’s body person Huma Abedin, went on to say, “but we also saw a vice-presidential candidate who tried to explain her running mate’s health care position.” Weiner was speaking at the fall meeting of Al Sharpton's National Action Network at the Sheraton New York hotel.
