He’s not clueless about Palin’s earmarks at all. He’s flat out lying. Repeatedly. About her record as well as his own.

And wow, what a crock when he says Palin took Alaska from the special interests and the oil companies and gave it back to the people! Now I better understand where Turdblossom got his name!

– If Obama wins Ohio, he has a 98.8% chance of winning the election.
– If McCain wins Ohio, he has an 80% chance of winning the election.

Ohio is pivotal.

I see 9 states at the moment. The campaigns may see some other opportunities.

East: Michigan, Ohio, Virginia and Pennsylvania (some)
West: Montana, Colorado, Nevada and New Mexico (some)
South: Florida

I heard on t.v. Hillary is headed to Ohio next.
I expect Biden will be in Florida and maybe Virginia.
I’d like to see Obama and Gore take a quick tour across the West.
Big Dog might do best to help Obama prepare for the debates.
But, if he goes on the road, then it’s to rural Ohio & Pennsylvania and maybe a short visit to West Virginia’s 2nd district to help Anne Barth.

The debates will be very big, but a lot of face time with voters can also be very big.

so who’s pocket is our tax money in?

They built some other things up there, but they also gave $500 million to TransCanada to maybe someday possibly build part of a natural gas pipeline into Canada to where their tar sands are located in Alberta province.

No pipeline plans to bring gas or oil to America.

So, I’d guess it’s been spread around to grease politicians palms and land in the pockets of who knows who.

My guess is Sarah bought her way onto the ticket, but I’ve seen no real proof of it yet. Would be a Hell of a story scoop for some journalist(s) if they could prove it.

Instead, just as that was being mentioned, the DOI IG report on scandal in Denver came out and then there was the 9/11 anniversary. Funny how those things always come up.

that was her [Palin’s] planned trajectory, she wanted Ted’s [Ted Stevens] seat,

We’ve got a similar Rovian project in WV named Shelley Moore Capito. We have 3 reps and she’s the only Repub and we have an aging Dem senator named Robert Byrd. WV has been trending Republican (voted for Bush twice) and they’re hoping she can become the new senator. It would be a huge pick up for them. She’s also the daughter of a former Repub governor (he went to jail). Problem is, she’s dumb as a rock. I mean it. She was even admonished once in the House by another republican because as he put it, she just doesn’t know what she’s talking about.

Blame it on Rove. Blame it on the Republican machine.

Fortunately this year we have a former Byrd aide named Anne Barth who is opposing Capito.

(now off to sleep meself..)

Thanks, folks, for coming by.
