Reverend Dobson travels to the future and finds La Cage Aux Folles
Seriously, this guy is obsessed with homosexuals. So much so he jumped in his time machine and reported back on the State of the Nation. (For those of you brave enough the entire 16 page one man play can be found here.) For those of you with weaker stomachs follow me over the [...]

Kiss and Tell
Which Republican will write the first “Tell All” book on the McCain Campaign and who will receive most of the blame?
Ain’t Payback a B*tch
At times like this it’s always wise to refer to history. So in the name of wingnut hypocrisy – and just for fun! – let’s take a stroll down memory lane.

Honestly, if I had to name one thing that has made the biggest impact in this election (besides the candidates) it would [...]
Comment Rescue: Opie, Andy, Matlock, The Fonz & Richie Endorse Obama

Somebody’s Going Under the Bus
This is a remarkable assessment — especially for a Republican campaign where grading on a curve is still the instinct of the traditional media. Has anyone seen the interview they reference?

The Amazingly Disconnected McCain Campaign
Who in their right mind approved Sarah Palin’s 150k shopping spree? Who vetted Joe the Plumber before shoving him into the spotlight? Who decided that lying to Letterman was okay?
The McCain Campaign is a train wreck. Or, in Jason’s words: Worst. Campaign. Ever.
Palin’s shopping orgy is just one more stupid mistake. Since naming her as [...]
McCain slips and slides toward defeat
This new PEW Poll tells quite a story. Palin’s negatives soar while McCain’s judgement is questioned. Judgement? Is that akin to character?
Let’s look at the numbers.
Obama’s Lead Widens: 52%-38%
Savor that for a minute. Okay, let’s move on to the economy.
I’m Shocked, Shocked
to find that they’re playing the Rev. Wright card in here!
Somebody please tell Rick Davis to stop treating all of us like McCain’s likely voters. We’ve never been so dumb as to have ever believed McCain in the first place that Wright was off of the table. But I guess that is why David [...]
Powell Follows Up
This is just remarkable. He reminds everyone that there really is an American middle and the Republicans have quite forgotten what that group expects. (I would also say that this reminds the media that they, too have forgotten what the great American middle looks like, too.) You can see right here why it is that [...]

Breaking: Colin Powell Endorses Obama
On top of raising 150 million in September, Obama snags the endorsement everyone wanted.
Chuck Todd adds more:

Bill Maher Plays the Race Card
The usual suspects won’t find this funny, but hey. NSFW, people.
Forgot to say the bit starts at about 2:00.
EDIT: This is Your Nation on White Privilege
Wink at Pandora!
The Colin Powell Factor
Lawrence O’Donnell speculates today that Colin Powell is ready to endorse. O’Donnell claims that Powell is going to endorse Obama.
There has been speculation about this for many weeks — often spoken of as either a game changer for Obama (this would be more than 3 weeks ago) or as an inoculation for some new [...]
The Day McCain Lost the Election
McCain has made many mistakes this campaign season, but there’s one 24 hour period that stands out in my mind. Funnily enough it all begins with David Letterman. Had it not been for Letterman showing the shot of McCain not flying back to Washington immediately the tactic of “suspending” his campaign might have worked. This stunt [...]

McCain On His Way To Being A Penny Stock
Intrade now shows:
Obama at 85

Question on Tonight’s Debate
Will McCain bring up Ayers tonight, and if he does go down this path how will Obama respond?

The New Swing States – Are you kidding me?
Okay, I’ll admit I’ve always had trouble with the “L” word, but, geez Louise, this is looking like a Landslide.
The NEW Swing/Toss Up States:
Nevada: Obama 48.9% McCain 46.8%
North Dakota: Obama 43.8% McCain 47.4%
Missouri: [...]
A specific answer to a specific question: The Economy
Agree or disagree. Obama lays out his plan. Wanna try discussing it?

Steve Newton gives the Delaware Blogosphere a spanking
If you haven’t read Steve’s post over at Delaware Libertarian you should. And even though it’s obvious he doesn’t have a horse in this race he makes some valid points. Now allow me to add a few of my own.
Has this election season become overly divisive? Yes. I won’t argue with that point, [...]
Good News You Haven’t (Really) Heard Yet
BushCo signs the paperwork for a transition.
The mess this man leaves means that the next President has a quite unenviable job on his hands. It is really clear that John McCain is not only not up to the job, he doesn’t even care about fixing the mess.
Our long national nightmare is almost over.
What are [...]
Could McCain’s Campaign be any worse?
I can’t believe I was actually nervous when Republicans picked John McCain as their nominee. Deserved, or not, McCain’s maverick reputation was carved in stone, and he was well liked by Independents and moderate Democrats. Admittedly, this drove me crazy. Hell, there were some people who actually believed he was “pro-choice”. Nuts.
Now that reputation is [...]
Somebody is going to get hurt…
… Unless Republicans step up to the plate and put a stop to John McCain and Sarah Palin’s attempts to fire up the crowd. Normally, this responsibility would fall to John McCain, but as this seems to be his entire campaign strategy I’m not counting on him doing the right thing.
And you know what? [...]
Ed Rollins Calls It for Obama
Wow.
Ed Rollins was the Campaign Manager for Ronald Reagan’s campaigns — he was an adept practitioner of the Southern Strategy and Lee Atwater worked for him. Rollins is a rat bastard, but he is a smart and politically astute rat bastard and he seems to be looking past this election now asking McCain to think [...]
He Knew It All Along
Obama mapped out McCain’s End (Political) Times strategy back in July. And when he did, McCain and his minions all rose up and accused him of playing the race card. The McCain Camp counted that race card business as a win for them. But here we are, and it unfolds exactly as Obama called it [...]

And Now for Something Completely Different
This is cool:
When Barack Obama’s campaign bus made a swing through Missouri in July, the unlikeliest of supporters were waiting for him — or rather two of them, holding the banner: “Rednecks for Obama.”
In backing the first African-American nominee of a major party for the US presidency, the pair are on a grassroots mission [...]
