But maybe. Laura Bush definitely killed a guy, and no one ever talks about it…

They aren’t too big into the whole “what did you do in the past” thing over at McCain HQ, are they:

For a second I thought they had brought Baghdad Bob out of retirement to play dueling banjos with Sarah “I was cleared in the report” Palin…

Still think we’re going to lose?
Feeling a bit better about Obama’s chances, especially since on the current electoral map he can win even if he finishes 500bps below his polling.
I guess we’ll just have to see if the Republicans can goose the economy between now and November 4 and change the topic to Bill Ayers or whatever else they have cooked up for late October. When I turned on CNN on Friday – the end of the worst week in Wall Street history and the day the Palin investigation came out – most of the discussion was, in fact, about whether Obama had shady associations. Just making that the subject shows an impressive level of message control.

I really thought this woman was a plant so McCain could have some decency cred. Guess not:

There’s a story, almost certainly apocryphal, about a reporter asking a woman deep in Appalachia whether she would vote for Johnson or Goldwater. She said Johnson, and the reporter was a bit surprised. He asked why.
“He’s against TV, and out here that’s all I have.”
“TV? I don’t think so.”
“Yes, I heard it.”
“I think Goldwater is against TVA. The Tennessee Valley Authority. Not television.”
“Well, I’m not taking any chances”

The strange thing is not that she is wrong about virtually everything. Dick Cheney is too, and he has had a long and distinguished career suckling from the crony capitalist teat of Republican America. It is that she is so damn clumsy and transparent about it.
