Whatever you think

Rep. Stephanie Tubbs-Jones had a beautiful smile. And a lot of times, that made me smile with her.

btw

I just loved seeing Barack Obama's Black Wife, half-Indonesia sister, Chinese brother-in-law and white relatives. How awesome was that?

The Saints...

I'm really happy that I didn't watch the Saints tonight. *sigh* They always start with a winning record, at least.

Never.

Never have I heard a Presidential candidate have such respect for gay rights. Yes we can!

Whoa

Looks like not only is Cindy McCain's half sister a Democrat, the sister also hates Cindy... That's some bad blood.

Hmm

Am I the only one who thinks that any ad that features John McCain speaking directly to the camera is by definition not exciting?

I agree

John Cole states:

And the best thing is what is to come- the train wreck that will be the GOP convention, and that can not be understated. It is going to be a disaster. The Democratic convention was forward looking, positive, hopeful, and constructive. For all the talks of disunity, this party is unified and ready for battle. Contrast that with what we can expect to see next week.

First, we know for a fact that the GOP, unlike the Democrats, will not be able to control themselves. They will launch attack after attack at Obama, and try to destroy him. It will fail, and they will get savaged in the media, who were all present at the DNC. The best thing about the babble all through the Democratic convention is that they will feel duty bound to do the same during the RNC, and they will be shocked and taken aback by the viciousness of the GOP. Bank on it. Either the gild will come off the McCain maverick/respectful lily, or we will have to realize that McCain wants to be President but can not even control his own convention. I will take either narrative for 1000, Alex.

I'm glad someone else agrees with me. All this hand wringing about the Democratic Convention will look absolutely silly when we see the shit show that is the Republican Party. Think they'll be loving on the Vice Presidential nominee? Think they'll have interesting speakers? Think they'll look like anything else but thugs? I don't.
