Thank you

In the wake of another negative, false McCain ad, I salute those in the traditional media who are pointing this out:

But when it comes to promises, it's worth pointing out that, according to the non-partisan Tax Policy Center's analysis of both candidates' proposed plans, Obama would cut taxes for those making in the range of $38,000 to $66,000 three to almost eight times more than McCain would.

If only others would follow this lead.

Hmm... not sure about this

While I'm happy to see Sen. Obama respond forcefully with the truth:

I was in union, Missouri which is 98 percent white - a rural, conservative. and what I said was what I think everybody knows, which is that I don't look like I came out of central casting when it comes to presidential candidates. But that I think that what people are really concerned about, what they're looking for is fundamental change on the economy, things that are going to help their families live out the American dream.

I'm not sure I would use the term "central casting." Just because it implies auditioning, acting, celebrity, etc. However, I can't think of a better term, and these people are much smarter at the spin game than I am!
