Jake Tapper, hardest working man in the 08 cycle, continues his coverage of the ever declining mental faculties of Joe Biden, Senator. For all the coverage given the family affairs of Governor Sarah Palin, precious little has been given to the rambling, bizarre statements of Smilin’ Joe Biden since his convention speech. And there’s so much good stuff here, too! Just the other day in | Read More »
Wow, what a coup by McCain. I didn’t know he had it in him. Following on Jonah’s heels: Sarah Palin makes this election about three things for John McCain: -Energy: She’s our best spokesperson on this issue, hands down. -Life: She’s HARDCORE pro-life, and she’s lived it – as we all know, giving birth to a Down’s Syndrome child. -The War: Palin’s eldest son enlisted | Read More »

How very throwback to think you could avoid the internet attention – but then, they got what they wanted in millions | Read More »
Well, now that Barack Obama is calling the unlucky ones, we’re running out of time to do the last fun speculation thing prior to the election, and I still haven’t thrown up a post of significance about all this. So here goes. On Obama’s side, it seemed clear from the beginning that he was going to bollix this choice. It tends to prove the old | Read More »
Despite Rick Moran’s hopes, and those of others here at RS, Gov. Bobby Jindal reiterated that he will not be John McCain’s Veep choice. “Let me be clear: I have said in every private and public conversation, I’ve got the job that I want. And I’ll say again on air: I’m not going to be the vice presidential nominee or vice president. I’m going to | Read More »
