All Hail 20-Somethings!

By MrSmith1 on Wed, 11/05/2008 - 12:49pm |
In early September, I wrote a plea to the 20-somethings (known collectively as the "Youth Vote") and begged them to show up this time and "save us".   Judging by the results, 20-somethings, you did show up and, we were saved. Thank you.   As a...

Palin's debate performance proves the old adage:

By MrSmith1 on Thu, 10/02/2008 - 11:02pm |
You can't cram 90 minutes of talking points into a brain that can only hold 68 minutes of talking points.Right around then, her well-rehearsed talking points became increasingly circular in their logic and she was just throwing out vague phrases mixed...

McCain thrown under his own bus?

By MrSmith1 on Thu, 09/25/2008 - 9:36pm |

Democrats to blame for this mess??!!

By MrSmith1 on Mon, 09/22/2008 - 2:27pm |
Isn't that analagous to a Democrat using a Zippo to light his friend's cigarette, and a Republican with a mouthful of gasoline comes up and spits the contents of his mouth through the flame of the lighter, and then immediately turns around and blames the Democrat with the Zippo for the ensuing...

In solidarity with the idea someone suggested for a McCain/Palin-Free Blog Day,  I was thinking about what it is that I like best about Obama.  For me, his thoughtful, nuanced approach to interviews and press conferences makes me feel he is...
