There’s an artist in Ann Arbor. She loves Senator Obama but she hates knocking on doors, making phone calls and entering data. So she took it upon herself to raise several hundred dollars in donations and then made dozens of LARGE yard signs for the Obama Campaign for Change. For free. We were lucky enough to score one of these […]

There’s no reasonable path to a McCain presidency that doesn’t include a win in both Pennsylvania and Florida. Here’s what Pennsylvania looks like today: Good luck with that, d00d… I’m just sayin’…

I commend your attention to this piece at the Huffington Post: Escape to Europe, Our Election Follows. I know the guy that wrote it ;) I’m just sayin’…

In Washtenaw county, home of Ann Arbor, Michigan, one of the most active community leaders in Senator Obama’s Campaign for Change voted for John McCain in the Michigan primary. He soon became disenchanted by a man who seemed not to care how long our young men and women remain in Iraq and this life-long Republican jumped ship and began working […]

Republicans in Michigan are freaking out. With the McCain campaign all but abandoning Michigan to the Democrats they are resorting to desperate measures. Tim Walberg is running an ad linking his opponent, Mark Schauer, to Michael Moore. Former Republican governor, William Milliken is backing away from McCain. And now the Republicans are petitioning the McPalin campaign to bring Palin back […]

Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama’s last name is spelled “Osama” on some 300 absentee ballots mailed out this week to voters in Rensselaer County hilltowns.

And I’m inspired by his life story. Although I live in the liberal Ann Arbor area, I work in a VERY conservative town. Almost daily I listen […]

A bunch of stuff on my list this this morning. 1. Negative Campaigning: Obama vs. McCainI’ve said recently to my conservative friend, Aielman, that comparing Obama’s lies and McCain’s lies on the campaign trail is like comparing a guy with a blister on his finger to a guy with a broken arm because they’re both “injured”.

Here’s how John McCain is going to close the budget gap that’s creating the gigantic federal deficit. He’s going to eliminate earmarks. Earmarks, as part of our overall budget, are that little sliver of red in the pie chart below: Via ForeignPolicy.com. Oh, yeah, he’s also going to cut taxes for the uber-wealthy. Good luck with all of that. Straight […]

As Sarah Palin scans her morning coffee cup for words of inspiration and wisdom, one wonders if, in light of their campaign’s recent turn toward the Dark Side, this quote appeared to her: “In life you need either inspiration or desperation.”– Anthony Robbins And THIS is enough to make anyone desperate: Pollster data from 10/6/2008 This is Desperation’s Crocodile.
