Sarah Palin Wins Flag Pin Contest

We all know Sarah Palin is a fashion trend-setter. Wigs in her hairstyle are top sellers, and the shoes she wore when introduced as John McCain’s running mate are flying off the shelves. [Ed note—ditto her glasses.]
And now she’s a flag pin fashionista as well. She wore the giant pin for her official campaign video, and [...]

Cheap Thrills: Sarah Palin Goes to Debate Boot Camp

So this VP debate is coming up on Thursday. Quite frankly, I’m more excited for it than I was for last week’s presidential one. I think it’s because Palin has been in debate “bootcamp” since last week, and I picture her standing in camo at a podium barking her answers at Beavis and Butthead’s gym [...]

Amuse Bouche: Party Time!

Daily News Round Up: The NObama Edition

This round up is an Obama-free zone!
When will the McCain campaign run its next negative ad on Joe Biden?

Veepstakes: Obama is Biden His Time

CNN is calling it.  It’s an Obama/Biden ticket.  It seems that the Obama campaign is once again playing it safe, taking the frontrunner’s strategy when they are anything but.  It’s like shutting down your offense and trying to milk the clock at the start of the 4th quarter in basketball with a 7 point lead.  [...]

Oh Baybeeeee: Bayh Beats Biden?

Drudge has got the possible scoop that it’s Evan Bayh, not Joe Biden, as the media and money-men have predicted. Though Bayh’s wifey’s spots on lots of corporate boards can make one a little queasy, he seems squeaky clean and not likely to get into any Edwardsian affairs. If it is not Bayh and is [...]

More on what you pay for

Last night Sen. Joe “clean and articulate” Biden tells David Letterman that he’s definitely in the running for the Democratic nomination. Letterman looks a little incredulous. Biden responds “Yeah, all I need to do is raise $25 million—not $100 million like some of the others—to get my message out there.” Like it’s nothing: “All I [...]
