McCain’s Veep
No, it’s not Pawlenty. It’s not Romney or Lieberman either. It’s Sarah Palin, first-term gov of Alaska.

As NYT, Michael A. Cohen observed, first and foremost she knew her audience and spoke directly to them. Her message was [...]

White Sox Fan Obama Won’t Waffle
Obama was interviewed by ESPN’s Stuart Scott
Among other things, he is an unashamed White Sox fan.
Scott: “If the Cubs and the White Sox both make it to the World Series?
Obama: “I would be going.”
Scott: “Who would you root for?

Hillary to Speak at Convention Today
Which Hillary will we get? Sure she knows exactly what she should say, but will we see the perfectly dressed and coifed former Presidential candidate? Or will we see the Hillary that seems to have forgotten the number of her hairdresser, and the location of her hair spray and make-up mirror?

McCain Hurting In The Rural Vote
Republicans have long counted on the rural vote to help them win battleground states. It seems like McCain should be able to do the same, especially with the view that Obama is elitist (remember “bittergate”?). Unfortunately for McCain, the economic strife that rural voters perceive to be caused by the Bush administration is causing more [...]
