After watching the mob mentality that has gotten so ugly from the Palin/McCain campaign (make no mistake about the order of the names), I really think that our only hope is that the Rapture myth is true. For the uninitiated,...
So Sarah Palin thinks that it is time that the American people got to know Barack Obama? That is her tag-line/excuse for starting up the William Ayers controversy.How about letting the American people get to know Sarah Palin? Where she...
According to Sarah she was annoyed with Katie Couric because she didn't let her tell Americans how Obama would raise their taxes and McCain would lower them, and how McCain would save health care. Well, son of a gun and spit on...
Did anyone see the Meet the Press interview with Bill Clinton? These are a few highlights:1. An old quote from Bill about how McCain is a great man. Could he say the same about Obama? Short answer -- NO. Long answer: ...
I just had a revelation. After watching both national candidates for President, and also the Vice Presidential candidates, and just recently the debate between Mark Warner and Jim Gilmore in...
On a beautiful sunny day here in Charlottesville, Virginia, on the campus of UVA, they came! I got there at 2:30 although the event was posted to start at 4:50, but I wanted a good seat. Turns out I got...
I won't blame John McCain for floating the idea that Sarah Palin has more experience than anyone running; in a campaign of lies it is just one more. But please, TPMers, don't fall into that bear trap!Please stop perpetuating this myth:...
OK, It's hard to feel sorry for a multi-millionairess who dated a married man with children; and then married him herself. But I was struck over these few days at how hard Cindy was working to be the loyal (read Stepford)...
OK, These are the queations:1. Who do you really, in your deepest, darkest soul, want McCain to choose?2. Who do you think he will choose?3. Funny answers...
I don't fear the heightened alert colors; I don't worry about jihadists running amok in our country. What I do fear is that my two 18 year-old sons, and thousands of others will be drafted to become fodder for McCain's desire...
I am a veteran at TPM, although I can't say how long, because the old way of acknowledging that is gone. Recently I have gotten into lots of conversations with people here, and as hard as I try, I can't...
OK, I'll admit to have a personal viewpoint on this (I wass diagnosed with breast cancer after I found out that my husband had an affair, so I can hardly be objective). BUT WHAT THE HELL WAS HE THINKING?And what...
Why isn't Obama winning by at least 20 percentage points in the polls? My fervent HOPE is that it is because many of his supporters (the young and the newly registered voters) don't have landlines and so are not included...
Many things have smoothed out, but there are some biggies that haven't been addressed. I just want to know if TPM considers them important, and therefore will be solved, or if the management is happy enough as things stand.1. Do...
OK. I know I keep complaining, but here goes again:Now, every time you click on anything, you have to wait for the "sunrise" that is the Obama ad. This site is effing slow enough! We shouldn't have to endure this...
Can you just see it? When Barack is getting sworn in, Hillary runs over and grabs the Bible and takes over the ceremony! When he gives his first State of the Union she stands up and filibusters! Oh, really, this...
OK, Does anyone remember when we could post a comment, send it, and get put right back where we were in the queue?As opposed to now, where we get back to the beginning, and we have to scroll down and...
I am watching MSNBC Breaking news and Hillary is talking about her FIRST TERM!WTF?She is asking them to "travel this final stretch with her, and to keep fighting!"She is never going to admit defeat! She is still hanging on! She...
