Obama/Biden...

Biden is a solid pick. Here's why...
  1. Foreign Policy experience is impeccable. 'Nuff said.
  2. Biden's son deploys RIGHT BEFORE THE ELECTION. McCain's POW advantage just lost some of its shine.
  3. Biden is a working class, Irish, Roman Catholic from Scranton. Delaware was a gimme, but his PA roots make him a twofer.
  4. Mrs. Biden is a working teacher, unlike a certain stretched-face, pill-popping, beer heiress with two estranged, half-sisters and more homes than she can count.
  5. CHAIR, Foreign Relations Committee. McSame isn't so sure where countries are or if they even exist anymore.
  6. Member, Judiciary committee (Chair of the Crime and Drugs subcommittee)
  7. Adjunct Professor in Constitutional Law. Now, we have TWO guys who can fight for our Constitution.
  8. All candidates talk smack about their competition (the GOP was using Hillary quotes in their ads). Biden's debate answer must be viewed through that lens.
  9. Romney has some choice quips of his own.
  10. Can you picture the Lieberman ad where he whispers into McCain's ear to fix his al Qaeda-training-in-Iran gaffe?
  11. He will shred McSame's Veep in the debates. There's just no one who can counter him.
  12. He's not running for President in 8 years. Darth Cheney's biggest weapon was "no political consequences" for his exploits.
More later... Bottom line, Biden makes inroads with PUMAs, is rock solid on Foreign Relations, and is a wise, capable person who can help Obama get our country on the right track.

Ashley Todd

Y'all know the story by now. White, female McCain phonebanker, Ashley Todd, leaves Texas to venture North to support her candidate. After a stint in New York, she ends up in Pittsburgh until Thursday, when she lost her effing mind and became Susan Smith Part Deux . The McCain campaign can hardly be blamed for this girl's actions. However, they need to be questioned on their response. Within hours of the incendiary allegations, two things happened. McCain and Palin called Ashley Todd. A press flack from McCain's Pennsylvania operation started pushing the story and adding salacious details. Consider what was at stake here. In a campaign environment already marked with strained racial tensions, Todd's story was potenitally explosive. It would have made a lot more sense to issue a generic statement (like Obama's campaign did). Instead, McCain and Palin lent legitimacy to the allegations (at least for a few hours) by calling her. They vetted Todd's story abou...

Missy DID HER THANG!

So it's a MAJOR night for some of my faves. Missy. DID. the DAMN. THANG. Side note: Describe J Lo's performance from last year. Can't do it? Thass what I thought. NikkiFree Wiggins  said she will have floor seats if Missy goes on tour. Hell, I wanna be the dude pulling her off stage on the wheeled transport for costume changes. Note to camera operators. When you have a BUILDING FULL of people singing Missy lyrics word for word, DO NOT WASTE CUTS to Taylor Swift's poseur azz shimmying her narrow shoulders in a jacket designed to be editorial. Ma'am, you don't deserve to be featured if you're not a fan. And certainly not multiple times. And CERTAINLYcertainly not in an extended take that took precious seconds from my Missy stanning during Lose Control. Also: Put your tongue back in your mouf, Swift. Back to Missy... Am I the only one who thought that they built the entire VMA set specifically to highlight Missy? That was DAMN-ed impressive. FRfr. I m...

Third Party Politics, A Primer

You want to build a legit third party for 2020? Convince Bernie Sanders to officially declare as a Reform Party candidate and build a state by state coalition of Bernie Sanders-affiliated candidates in State and local races. The Greens are done. The Reform Party actually placed Jesse Ventura in the Minnesota Governor's mansion AND earned the most third party votes since McGovern. There is NO 2024 bench for the Dems. The GOP is struggling too. If you want to break the duopoly,  you'll need a legit 3rd-partier with media presence, charisma, and real political talent. That can't happen overnight, but the unrest in the country is real. You can't beat the system this year, but if you can find the money, you can get candidates into the game. You need someone like Colin Powell to be a standard bearer. Not for POTUS. He'll be too old after this cycle. OTOH, he's got the chops, he's got the respect and combined with Sanders, you could create a home for people...
