It's Official: Palin Ignores Sunday Talk Shows

In this day of media coverage and politics, it is shocking, albeit, expected, that Sarah Palin has avoided being interviewed. She couldn't put back to back coherent sentences together to save her life, so I know why she's doing this.

The Republicans must be so proud to have such a puppet as VP.

"This Sunday, November 2, is the final Sunday before Tuesday's highly anticipated presidential election. Gov. Sarah Palin has thus far opted not to participate in what has become a campaign ritual: Interviews on the various Sunday talk show programs.

Well, all of the major Sunday talk shows -- NBC's "Meet the Press," CNN's "Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer," Fox's "Fox News Sunday," ABC's "This Week with George Stephanopoulos" and CBS's "Face the Nation" -- have now announced their weekend lineups and none were able to land an interview with the Alaska governor, just days before the election.

It should be noted: The last vice presidential candidate to avoid NBC's "Meet the Press" -- long a ratings and gravitas champ among its competitors -- was...Dan Quayle."

Wait until after she losses on Tuesday to see what kind of media whore she turns into. She'll throw Grandpa McSame under any bus she can.

McCain And Cheney Out Of The Closet

A vote for McCain may be a vote for Bush, but really it's a third Cheney term we are trying to avoid. With Cheney leaving his crypt after weeks of hiding to give McCain his blessing with his blood brother endorsement, Barack connects the dots between McCain, Cheney, Bush and the spectacular failure the last 8 years has taught us:

"I'd like to congratulate Senator McCain on this endorsement because he really earned it. That endorsement didn't come easy. Senator McCain had to vote 90 percent of the time with George Bush and Dick Cheney to get it. He served as Washington's biggest cheerleader for going to war in Iraq, and supports economic policies that are no different from the last eight years. So Senator McCain worked hard to get Dick Cheney's support.

"But here's my question for you, Colorado: do you think Dick Cheney is delighted to support John McCain because he thinks John McCain's going to bring change? Do you think John McCain and Dick Cheney have been talking about how to shake things up, and get rid of the lobbyists and the old boys club in Washington?

"Colorado, we know better. After all, it was just a few days ago that Senator McCain said that he and President Bush share a 'common philosophy.' And we know that when it comes to foreign policy, John McCain and Dick Cheney share a common philosophy that thinks that empty bluster from Washington will fix all of our problems, and a war without end in Iraq is the way to defeat Osama bin Laden and the al Qaeda terrorists who are in Afghanistan and Pakistan.

"So George Bush may be in an undisclosed location, but Dick Cheney's out there on the campaign trail because he'd be delighted to pass the baton to John McCain. He knows that with John McCain you get a twofer: George Bush's economic policy and Dick Cheney's foreign policy -- but that's a risk we cannot afford to take."

Biden: McCain Is Disappointing

Biden my be hidin', but he always has his boy Barack's back.

“In my view, over the last few weeks, John McCain’s campaign has gone way over the top,” said Biden Saturday at an outdoor rally on Evansville’s Main Street. “They are trying to take the low road to the highest office in the land. It’s not only George Bush’s economic policies that John McCain has bought hook, line and sinker. He’s also bought Karl Rove’s brand of political tactics.”

“It is disappointing, I never thought I’d see this from a McCain campaign,” Biden continued. “They’re calling Barack Obama every name in the book. They are going out in a way that I don’t recall it being more personally vicious.”

As with Bush, the one thing you can count on with McCain is that he will always do the wrong thing. You have 2 options, McCain will always opt for the easier, meaner, dickish option and then play it off that it took courage.

Ohio Poll: Thanks Joe

McCain's Joe The Fraud Zionist Plumber caricature is from Ohio. Seems to be resonating quite well.

Wilco On Stephen Colbert

Wilco on Stephen Colbert last night performing the exclusive "Wilco The Song". Even throws "Colbert" into the 2nd chorus.

Today's Gallup

Gallup, October 31, 2008. Looks at the trends.

No matter how you slice it, Obama is our President and McCain is toast. That would be a good costume for McCain, a piece of burnt, bitter, race baiting toast.

Happy Halloween

Obama's "Rearview Mirror" Ad

Halloween is scary, so is this commercial. Look behind McCain and who do you see?

Et Tu, Cavuto?

Fox's Neil Cavuto gives the Straight Talk Express a dress down. I can only imagine the tantrum Grandpa threw when he heard this.

Cavuto complained that, point after point, McCain’s “positions are always changing” and asked, “What’s the deal with the Straight Talk Express?” Summing it up with:

"That’s why you’re losing right now, Senator McCain. Not because you don’t have the courage of your convictions. But because on economic matters, you have no convictions."

Golf clap for Fox with 4 days left noticing McCain's shitty campaign.

A Halloween PSA; She's Lame Enough

A useful PSA.

"The opening chord to "A Hard Day's Night" is famous because for 40 years, no one quite knew exactly what chord George Harrison was playing. Musicians, scholars and amateur guitar players alike had all come up with their own theories, but it took a Dalhousie mathematician to figure out the exact formula. Dr. Brown used Fourier transforms to find the notes in the chord, and deduced that another George — George Martin, the Beatles producer — also played on the chord, adding a piano chord that included an F note impossible to play with the other notes on the guitar."

Palin's Medical records?

Where are the medical records Sarah Palin promised?

The baby drama continues......

Stepen Colbert Endorses* Obama

Stephen Colbert cleverly endorses Obama, but does not support him.

He uses the Republicans' relationship with the Constitution as an example. They endorse it, but do their best to shred it.
