Joe the Plumber now has an agent. So I guess Joe really does represent the average American. That is, all those people who want to cash in instantly without the need of any skill or talent.
BTW, when you click this article about Joe’s signing with an agent, notice the photograph. Doesn’t it look as if [...]

My opinion of telemarketers has just been handed a major kick in the rear end. In Indiana, apparently, it is illegal to have “robot” calls — that is, automated, taped callers are illegal (why don’t we have this law in Vermont?) — so the McCain campaign has had to hire a call center with real, [...]
Oh, the irony…

I’ve been traveling the past week, so have not been able to post. It is fun to be able to get back in the swing of things with this report that insiders in the McCain campaign are complaining about Sarah Palin. Isn’t it ironic that the Mr. Maverick campaign is upset that Palin is “going rogue,” which, to [...]
Palin shot down by Anchorage Daily News

Sarah Palin’s reaction to the Legislature’s Troopergate report is an embarrassment to Alaskans and the nation.
That’s the opinion of the editors of the Anchorage Daily News… and it should be the opinion of every American. That a Republican is denying any responsibility for anything is no news, however. That’s been the MO of the Bush [...]

John McCain’s ugly campaign is beginning to take its toll on his candidacy, as moderate Republicans are beginning to turn away, according to this story in today’s Grand Rapids Press. Former Michigan governer William Milliken, a Republican, is quoted as saying:
“He is not the McCain I endorsed,” said Milliken, reached at his Traverse City home [...]
Phew, I feel better now…

The McCain campaign has issued a report on Sarah Palin’s role in the so-called Troopergate scandal. According to the AP:
ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — Trying to head off a potentially embarrassing state ethics report on GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, campaign officials released their own report Thursday that clears her of any wrongdoing.
I am certainly [...]
A black hole of ideas and dignity

With the economy in meltdown, and a host of other serious maladies facing the American people, it is nice to see the McCain campaign rolling out some fresh, big ideas… Oops, my bad. McCain seems to have no fresh, big ideas. He only has cheap attacks.
You know a candidacy is in trouble when it begins [...]

As I’ve mentioned before, I don’t have TV reception so I did not watch last night’s debate between Biden and Palin, and, therefore, will not comment on it. I was glad to see these poll results.
Then there is this, which confirms the general growing impression that John McCain can’t look Barack Obama in the eye. [...]
I was wrong about McCain
Posted in Politics, tagged John McCain, Sarah Palin on October 3, 2008 | 1 Comment »
I was wrong about John McCain. When he selected Sarah Palin as his running mate, I thought he would no longer be able to claim that Obama doesn’t have enough experience to be president. After all, if he thought Palin experienced enough to be backup prez… well, you get my drift. What I hadn’t counted [...]
