Fox News sent a reporter to Joe Biden’s hometown of Scranton today for a story on how Pennsylvania is a “battleground” state. Keep an eye on those hands…
Jesus. How can you defend that? Maybe he felt stupid because it went against his point that Pennsylvania (a state which Obama will win) is a ‘swing state’ but still…

Cut everything.
Drop your cable package and TiVo. Say goodbye to Applebee’s and Starbucks. Cancel the ski trip.
Slash every single penny you possibly can from your household budgets and start building up cash.
Yes, I’m serious. The shocking collapse of the rescue package on Capitol Hill threatens a disaster on Main Street. Unless this gets reversed almost immediately, it could turn a slowdown into a slump, and a slump into a depression.
It’s hardly possible to make any

Sing for Change chronicles a recent Sunday afternoon, when 22 children, ages 5-12, gathered to sing original songs in the belief that their singing would lift up our communities for the coming election. Light, hope, courage and love shine through these nonvoting children who believe that their very best contribution to the Obama campaign is to sing.
Sing for Change was a confluence of hard work, good will, and shared vision. Inspired by ideas raised at a grassroots Obama

Last night, she posted two blog entries– one ostensibly mocks one of her online supporters and the other ruminates on the licentiousness of Nancy Grace (via an uncited wikipedia entry, I’m pretty sure).
If this case weren’t so damn unpredictable, I’d call fake on this one. Problem is, I know she has a Facebook account and I’ve seen her on AOL Instant Messenger so they’re probably real.

NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks continued a rebound following a private research group report that Americans’ confidence in the economy has improved in September.
The reading, which doesn’t reflect attitudes following Monday’s steep stock market sell-off, remains near a 16-year low. The Conference Board reports Tuesday its Consumer Confidence Index rose to 59.8 from a revised 58.5 in August.
Wall Street had expected a reading of 55.5, according to Thomson/IFR.
The Dow Jones industrials are up 215 at the

Karl Rove speaks to Fox News Radio host John Gibson about behind-the-scenes maneuvering during the bailout rejection.
I’m already seeing attack ads from MoveOn.org blaming John McCain and the Republicans for this so it’s no surprise that the GOP is trying to push back and tell their side of this story.

“Barack Obama failed to lead, phoned it in, attacked John McCain, and refused to even say if he supported the final bill.
“Just before the vote, when the outcome was still in doubt, Speaker Pelosi gave a strongly worded partisan speech and poisoned the outcome.
“This bill failed because Barack Obama and the Democrats put politics ahead of country.”
Also, a senior McCain advisor calls the speech ‘one of the most reckless acts [he's] seen from…

WASHINGTON (AFP) — US lawmakers on Monday debated a 700-billion-dollar bailout plan for struggling Wall Street banks as US President George W. Bush appealed to Congress to quickly approve the deal to free up frozen credit markets.
“I fully understand that this will be a difficult vote,” Bush said at the White House before the House of Representatives began debate on the proposal amid stiff opposition from some members of his Republican party.
But he said the rescue package

Democrats in their own words Covering up the Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac Scam that caused our Economic Crisis.
At a 2004 hearing see Democrat after Democrat covering up and attacking the regulations to protect Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac (their Cash Cows) that are now destroying our economy because the Democrats let them cheat.
This video is among the most-watched on You Tube this weekend and it’s damning piece of evidence against the Democrats who claim ‘no…

An FBI source working closely on the case has told me so much more than what has been released.
As some of you may recall I had said a couple of weeks ago I was going to contact someone that was working the case.
According to my source in the FBI they have evidence that Casey had used both chloroform & Xanax to drug Caylee, also that according to evidence Caylee had been in the trunk for

This one’s for real folks. The 100% legit footage of the 1984 Miss Alaska Pageant featuring Sarah Palin.
If this was 1984, I’d be all over that. Hell, it’s 2008 and the offer stands.

Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) ended three days of suspense on Friday morning and announced that he will leave bailout negotiations in Washington and fly to Oxford, Miss., for the opening presidential debate.
McCain had previously said that he would suspend his campaign until an agreement was reached on the administration’s $700 billion mortgage proposal.
No such agreement has been reached, but Republicans said the standoff was hurting McCain’s campaign, and that he would look terrible if he didn’t attend

A few clarifications should be made. This video lays all of the blame on Democrats, which is a natural reaction in an election year, but that lets a lot of Republicans off the hook. In 2003, the Bush administration tried to stop the runaway train of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and Republicans controlled both chambers of Congress. Democrats alone didn’t stop this. No one filibustered the Bush administration’s bill in the Senate; it didn’t have the votes to
