POLITICS


Alright, let's transition to something more intellectual: politics. Last night was Barack Obama's big speech. Did he deliver the punch? It was a big event: 84,000 saw it live, millions more on television. Beyond all the grandiose events, I just hope this candidate can deliver on the "CHANGE" he promises. Otherwise I get a funny image in my head if either Barack doesn't win or becomes our worst president: the homeless will start using his campaign signs to ask for "CHANGE"

What do you think of McCain's VP Pick? My first thought is that it came out of the blue...1st term Governor of Alaska. And given the Ted Steven's issues, probably not a good association. Mitt would have been a better pick, however Palin could peel off some of Hillary's supporters.

Awesome website you should check out:

http://www.realclearpolitics.com/

It's basically a portal for every major story related to this election season. And it's the most up to date resource I've found. Take a look at the Electoral Maps between McCain and Obama. Take out the "Toss Up States" and you'll see how close this race is at this point:

Obama: 273
McCain: 265

that's a dead heat.

Will be tuning into the RNC next week...just to complete my "political spectrum"

you know why mcain chose this woman. just look at her! she's bill jenson's mom! aka - hot. lil' johnnie cheater knows this straight off and is just waiting for his wife to kick the bucket so he can carouse with his VP. hell maybe not even wait for that! what better way to get into this old lady's panties than to stay up late alone in his oval orafice and "discuss politics". a little scotch, send the secret service to guard the hallway, turn on only the reading lamp. awwww yeah...it's business time.
