From the very start of the debate tonight, I got the sense that talks are already underway about these two running together. I think they are. They both appeared to do the “we are all Democrats” routine. They both appeared to be over the bristling dislike and the cold shoulder treatment. […]

The National Journal announced today that Barack Obama has ranked as the “Most Liberal Senator In 2007″ in their annual rating based on the votes cast by each senator during 2007.
I knew there was a reason I liked the guy!
Hillary Clinton ranked 16th-most-liberal. Less impressive.
And John McCain? Well that guy didn’t […]

Ted Strickland announced his plan today to offset the projected budget deficit.
In addition to the ‘belt-tightening’ measures, his plan also involves expanding the Ohio Lottery to include Keno machines in restaurants and bars. The increased revenue (est. $73 million) will go to fund education.
After hearing the news, Voinovich emails the Dispatch […]

Working in Kentucky this week, I’ve been listening to Lexington’s Westwood One conservative talk radio station in the car on my way to and from work- and it’s been pretty eye opening.
I mean- I already knew that Hillary is hated by every right-leaning person and that some conservatives were against McCain as the nominee- but […]

All Men, All Men are liars their words aint worth no […]

He spent a ton of time thanking all of his staff.
Check please.
Hearing he might get behind McCain. John is looking unstoppable at this point. Good stuff.

The Go Go’s “Head Over Heels”:
But you know looks sometimes deceive
It seems my weaknesses
Just keep going strong

Hmmm…

In a completely unsurprising turn of events, tech blog Techcrunch has endorsed Obama in the Democratic primaries.
He is staunchly in favor of net neutrality, and has promised to make it a priority to reinstate it in his first year in office. He has proposed intelligent programs for increasing technology education and access to children. He […]

Whoever is writing for Right Angle Blog now is excited by Walmart’s recent announcement that it “will chop prices between 10 to 30 percent this week on groceries, electronics and other home-related products in an effort to keep its cash-strapped consumers excited about shopping.”
According to RAB, Walmart’s price-lowering strategy is “Doing More Than Any Economic […]

As Congress continues work on a plan to stimulate the US economy and the Federal Reserve considers even more aggresive interest rate cuts - it’s obvious that we are headed toward an inevitable recession and something needs to be done about it.
Everyone has finally pulled their heads out of the sand- everyone except Matt Hurley […]

I was watching The McLaughlin Group with my wife recently and I commented that Pat Buchanan seems like the most reasonable guy on the show- at least on the topic of the war and terrorism.
My wife laughed and asked: what has America come to when Pat Buchanan is the most reasonable person in the […]

Trippy mashup of Jurassic 5 and Kool Aid. I suppose it’s a good thing I don’t remember any of these commercials.
