Obama Surrogate Springsteen Gets 10,000, VP Candidate Palin Gets 10,000

Obama just cannot match Sarah Palin’s ability to draw crowds. Today Obama surrogate ‘The Boss’ Springsteen serenaded a crowd of 10,000 – most of which I am sure came to just hear the music and all of which were not Obama supporters. Also today Sarah Palin, VP Candidate for the GOP, drew 10,000 supporters. They were all […]

More Poll Posting – Obama May Be In Real Trouble If Polls Weight Samples Wrong

With Barack Obama pulling ahead in the polls, it seems a lot of us on the right are concerned about the validity of the message we are seeing. I am still of the opinion something is wrong with the polls and have shown why record crowd levels at Palin events, record viewership of the Biden-Palin […]

Obamas And Ayers Hold Panel On Violent Youths, Obama Law Suits Funneled Bad Loan Money Into His Campaign Coffers

The irony of this news story up at Drudge is incredible. Ayers and the Obamas were on a panel talking about how youthful violence should not be considered violent acts to the same standard as adults. The subtitle is great: Close-up on juvenile justice Author, former offender among speakers Ayers has the distinction of being […]

Where Will The Polls Head Next?

There are some modest indications polls may be heading back toward McCain-Palin this week. Some of this can be seen in the state polls which bounced towards Obama during the debate on the Financial Bailout/Rescue package debate. For example, Colorado is apparently done with its bounce if you look at the current RCP polls: Poll […]

The Failing McCain-Palin Campaign Still Drawing Record Crowds

Update: Well Obama tried, but Palin actually got a crowd of 30,000 in Carson CA, which is 50% more than Obama got in Asheville, NC. Update: It seems Obama was able to pull about 20,000 today at a rally in NC. Impressive – he is as good as Palin, which makes me wonder all the more […]

Political Industrial Complex Reacts To Palin – And Shows ITS Weakness

Two talking heads on NBC’s Meet The Press illustrated why Palin is the premier candidate in this race. Paul Begala tried to address Palin’s comments about Obama’s relationship to Bill Ayers, the unrepentant terrorist. Begala’s efforts to turn this around were laughable. He started by saying “guilt by association” would not work Bush-McCain, Bush-McCain, Bush-McCain). […]

Is Obama Actually A Puppet On A String?

We seem to go round and round again these days on whether candidates have ear pieces (and these days they can be impossible to detect since some can simply be a patch or something near the ear). I think many pols are wired to a back room of puppeteers. The Anchoress put me onto this […]

Palin Spoke Up To America, Biden Down

An interesting study of the VP debate shows Palin spoke intelligently to America and Biden was dumbing down his points:  An analysis carried out by a language monitoring service said Friday that Gov. Sarah Palin spoke at a more than ninth-grade level and Sen. Joseph Biden spoke at a nearly eighth-grade level in Thursday night’s […]

The usually ignored VP debate drew a historic audience -  jumping into first place for any VP debate and into 2nd place for all Presidential […]
