NYT - Loan Titans Paid McCain Adviser Nearly $2 Million John McCain - Shoot The Messenger

Article

I put a lot of stock into Survey USA, McCain should be worried.... Virginia - Obama +6 Obama (D) - 51% McCain ® - 45% Obama takes 91% of democrats and McCain takes 87% of Republicans. The tie breaker is independents which make up 22% of those polled. McCain edges out Obama ONLY 48-45. That's nearly a tie. McCain needs those independents to win VA. I also just noticed this: "Among women, Obama led by 6 points before Sarah Palin was named to the GOP ticket, now leads by 16."

QUOTE (longshot7 @ Sep 22, 2008 -> 10:30 AM) Hopefully, Biden will attack McCain and not look like a sexist jerk (not by me, but by normal idiots) by attacking Palin. I dont think you'll see Biden attacking her for thinks like her pastor, "God's War" or aerial hunting of wolves. But, is she starts using her staged lines where she lies about the bridge to no where and her jet, I think Biden will call her on it.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Sep 21, 2008 -> 02:36 PM) Not inexperience, that doesn't mean anything. More like a lack of knowledge. THat will be exposed plenty. You'll be able to tell by her "canned" / pre-planned answers and constant "reformer" defense without much explination as to HOW she will reform.

Thanks John! McCain's Palin pick pushes FL undecideds to... OBAMA!

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Sep 20, 2008 -> 02:55 PM) FWIW, there wasn't really a "playoffs" in 1906, since you just went straight to the World Series. well yea, but that's a technicality

Man... this guy is so good he can pitch with both arms!!

McCain’s Camp Tests Fund-Raising Limits

I am not trying to jump the gun and ASSUME we are going to make the playoffs, but I got to thinking yesterday afternoon.... when was the last time the White Sox an Cubs were in the playoffs in the same year? I couldn't think of anytime in my lifetime (25 years), but I figured that had to be one year in the last 50. I was wrong. The last time the Chicago White Sox and Chicago Cubs were in the playoffs in the same year was... 1906, the year they met in the World Series with the White Sox winning 4 games to 2.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Sep 20, 2008 -> 11:44 AM) Damn that ad was harsh. Edit: was that actually an Obama ad? Independent group.

If I can find the chart, Palin's approval rating is plummeting in the last week. From something like 55 to 40 in less than a week. UPDATE: Found the data via Research 2000:

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Sep 19, 2008 -> 07:39 PM) Palin's bigger problem in Iowa was she didn't know what city she was in. Referred to Cedar Rapids as Grand Rapids. Oh, I'd say this is MUCH bigger:

Interesting thing brought up by Olberman tonight: Palin was in CR Iowa yesterday promising to put the federal governments checkbook online like she did in Alaska... the problem? The federal checkbook is ALREADY online... thanks to a bill brought to you by... Barack Obama and supported by John McCain. OOPS! Also, Olberman is donating $100 to charity for every lie Palin makes. He's starting the tally tonight. No doubt he'd donate more, but at $1000 per lie, he might be broke by the end of the week.

QUOTE (bmags @ Sep 19, 2008 -> 07:37 PM) hmm...his mom sending emails from the grave? I noticed that too. Someone doesnt know Obama's history.

For those of you who havent notived, Microsoft sank LARGE money into two spots featuring Jerry Seinfeld and Bill Gates. They were largely hailed as dumb by the tech world. Now they are launching Phase 2... "I'm a PC" commercials. Here's the funny part:

this is for another thread at another time. I dont want to jump down that rabbit hole here.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 19, 2008 -> 12:48 PM) Do you agree with his far left "morals" that poor people should be helped out and people who can't afford health insurance should be provided care? sorry, I should have been a little more clear. Morals was probably the wrong word. hmmm..... "hot button ethical issues" might be more appropriate? I still struggle to figure out how to appropriately describe myself. I absolutely support universal health care 100%. Have for 4+ years now. When ti comes to helping the poor, i think the welfare system needs some reform. I see too many people who are content to sit on their butt and do nothing but collect government money.
