That’s question (and a good one) that Jonathan Chait asks:
Obama’s strategy seems predicated on convincing voters that they really, really like the inexperienced black guy with the foreign-sounding name. Convincing them not to vote for the other guy, the one who embraces the least popular president in modern history, sounds like a better bet to […]

Not surprising from this disingenuous bunch. He did NOT visit troops at Landstuhl, so they attacked. If he HAD visited them, guess what?
THEY WOULD HAVE ATTACKED!
What the McCain campaign doesn’t want people to know, according to one GOP strategist I spoke with over the weekend, is that they had an ad script […]

So I got put in a pickle. Let me illustrate:

You see. I made it known how we were gonna fight anonymous email smears of Barack Obama:
1. Reply to everyone who got the email that you can tell (you may need to copy addresses from a quoted email that […]

This one I actually like- mainly because it doesn’t look like a monkey. Also, the creators promise to donate a dollar from every purchase to the campaign.

According to the ad this Obama action figure is 6″ tall and has eight points of articulation so you can “pose him presidentially”.
No word yet on whether they […]

Just in time, we have LowRoadExpress.com. Yet another site dedicated to answer McCain campaign false attacks and low road methods to try and beat Barack Obama. You’d think someone that promised to have a “respectful campaign focused on issues” wouldn’t cause his opponent to dedicated an entire new site to exposing his negative […]

Barack Obama assassinated, age 46.
That’s what was written down.
It was envisioned. It was contemplated. Then it was written down.
I completely understand controversial and catchy headlines - being a fan of them myself - but this seems to cross a line even with me. I understand the point that Tim is […]

As far as Republican Senators go, Arlen Specter is certainly one of the better ones.
He’s a moderate who supports women’s reproductive rights and, in a lot of cases, LGBT rights. This quickly brings him out of the wingnut category in my book.
He’s also a Yale Law grad and a former DA (from Philly) who […]

I mean, seriously. Do they smoke crack in meetings? First they criticize Obama for ditching troops in an ad that contains video of him visiting troops, now they put out an ad that when you watch it all you can think is:
“Fuck alot of people come out for Barack Obama”

“He’s the biggest celebrity […]

Which is it? Is he too inexperienced?
Columbus, OH — Taking dead aim at the Democratic frontrunner, Sen. John McCain rebuked Barack Obama as an “inexperienced candidate” who is making empty promises to the American people of a “holiday from history.”
or too Presidential and popular?
“Barack Obama is the biggest celebrity in the world, […]

So the House officially apologized for slavery. Hella late and worth getting on the record. I’d also add that it took a Democratic House to do it. But one anonymous wingnut coward (unless his name really is Gordon Gekko) continues to equate his getting taxed with the slavery years in the United […]

Step one:
WASHINGTON (AP) — A House panel Wednesday voted to cite former top White House aide Karl Rove for contempt of Congress for defying a subpoena to answer questions about the dismissals of several federal prosecutors as its Senate counterpart explored punishments for an array of alleged Bush administration misdeeds.
Step two:

Send this traitorous un-American wingnut […]

Tim posted this in response to the uppity negro narrative that the right wants to use to discredit Obama. Very powerful way to make this point, Tim! Well done:
How dare a black man say he has “good odds” to win the presidency.
How dare a black man say he has good odds, period.
How […]
