Sarah Palin’s speech on Wednesday night might be the defining moment of the General Election. According to CBS’s new poll, Obama’s post-convention bounce has evaporated and the race is again tied. It’s likely that McCain will pull ahead with his own convention bounce. One of few sane netroots bloggers, Jerome Armstrong, sifting through the CBS [...]

How fitting that the Obama Campaign is on its way to regretting the decision made by their Arrogant Selected Ass to forgo public financing. First, they didn’t meet their lofty goals for June.

Generally speaking this announcement has been met with disapproval and disappointment, except by kool-aid drinkers at the HuffyPot. * Well, hold your hats, the WaPo today slapped Obama for his change of, er, [...]
