Sarah Palin
The Buzz
Sarah Palin appears to have hijacked the McCain campaign as of late, with her harsh attacks on Obama’s “associates” and a strange push to continue the fight in Michigan after the campaign decided to pull out of the former toss-up state last week. Palin has been a far more forceful anti-Obama voice on the campaign […]
Obama TV: Two post-debate ads knock McCain-Palin over health care
The Obama campaign wasted no time in going after McCain following last night’s vice presidential debate, releasing two new TV ads that hit the GOP nominee for proposing to tax health care benefits and Sarah Palin’s refusal to explain McCain’s apparent health tax package at the VP debate.
The ads, called “Prescription” and “Can’t Explain,” attack […]
Biden vs. Palin: Preview
Tonight’s vice presidential debate in St. Louis is being billed as something far more entertaining and explosive as any of the more staid and predictable presidential showdowns between McCain and Obama. This is supposed to be where Biden finally stick his foot in his mouth and where Palin makes a strong play for sexism and […]
McCain TV: Two new web ads turn up the heat on Obama
Yes, these web ads put out by the McCain campaign are shameless propaganda that never occupy a paid TV slot but are only peddled by a highly caffeinated media. Yes, we are part of the whole mess by taking the bait and putting them up right here…
With that apologia out of the way, we can […]
Sarah Palin: “I’m the new energy”
Perhaps topping the presumptuousness many see in the actions and words of the Obama campaign, Sarah Palin has coined a new catchphrase to describe herself and her impact on Washington as McCain’s running mate: “The new energy.”

The all-too-familiar game of finger pointing has begun among Democrats and Republicans in the wake of yesterday’s failed bailout bill in the House. Whether it’s Nancy Pelosi, John Boehner or John McCain, the blame is being spread around. But a more likely reason for the stunning death of the $700 billion compromise is voter anger […]
McCain-Palin decry “gotcha” journalism in Couric sit-down
The ballyhooed dual sit-down with CBS’ Katie Couric interviewing both John McCain and Sarah Palin produced some questionable comments from the pair. It involved complaints from the GOP ticket on Palin’s treatment in the media and whether or not a mumbled question from a voter at a campaign event is “gotcha journalism.”
Most of the interview […]

The bailout takes center stage today as the House is debating the measure at this very moment and discussions over how much the Fed assistance will really tamp down the crisis goes on amidst yet another desperate bank buyout - this one of Wachovia. But at least the Democrats and Republicans on Capitol Hill hammered […]
McCain-Palin responds to “misleading” stem cell charges
A new McCain-Palin radio ad is out this morning seeking to push back against “misleading” Obama attacks on stem cell research and whether or not McCain truly supports the increasingly popular medical research to harness their benefits.
The McCain ad points out that the Obama campaign’s ads attacking McCain over stem cell opposition are based on […]

Back and better than ever…
This is a week that will be a mere sideshow leading up to the biggest event of this presidential campaign so far; Friday night’s debate in Mississippi. The jockeying for swing voters, the battleground states tours, the lightning-fast nasty ad attacks - all have some sort of corresponding impact. But look […]
