The McCain campaign will be pouring millions of dollars — if not tens of millions — into negative attack ads against Barack Obama before McCain accepts the Republican nomination on Thursday. His campaign has to spend every last dollar of primary funds they’ve raked in from Washington lobbyists and special interest PACs. His campaign manager [...]
Forgive me for being so ignorant and uninformed, friends. See, I don’t watch the news and I don’t read the paper, but listening to NPR the other day there were a bunch of conservative think-tank eggheads on there talking about McCain’s lack of coverage by the media. Well, what can be done? Obama is the [...]

I think that would garner a LOT more votes, don’t you think? Also, shouldn’t Guiliani run for President in the Democratic party? He shares [...]
nasty and riddled with hyperbole and ad hominem attacks? Or do you think perhaps the internet has influenced things in this direction through anonymity and the inability to get the reward for what your tongue has provoked? Or could it be that our politicians have been that bad over the last few years? Suggested Reading: [...]
