The wonderful and talented Omnipotent Poobah has posted a wonderful response to all the folks going ape-shit over the New Yorker cover of Barack and Michelle Obama.

That Phil Gramm is a bag of batshit is obvious. To that end, when he states we are a nation of whiners and its only a “mental recession”, what the fuck would he know about stressing out…

With 32 U.S. representatives and 2 U.S. senators, the total of 34 electors makes Texas the second largest electoral vote state (California first) in the nation. Texas is the only state that holds a primary that is a combination of precinct elections, followed by caucuses after the polls close.

MSNBC put up their list of the current “likely scenario” for the electoral map.

Except if your a anti-Bush/McCain protester. Those folks are highly interested in this affair! A h/t and a hug to SuzieQ for posting this delicious piece of reality for Weathervane McCain. From the writeup:
A Tuesday fundraiser headlined by President Bush for U.S. Sen. John McCain’s presidential campaign is being moved out of the Phoenix Convention [...]

McCain gave a speech recently about the environment and alternative energy. Some folks gave him kudos for that speech and his stance, which possibly pissed off a few Rethugs.
Many more of us figured it was bullshit on a stick. And it was…

Sens. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) and John Warner (R-Va.) are already circulating a proposed amendment [...]

Thanks to a new article up on the website The Public Record, I now have an Excedrin headache. Philly Gramm has only served one constituency his entire public life…that of the Corporatocracy and it’s incestuous sister the Financial Industry.

Crooks and Liars has the video up.
This morning Boehner, the idiot in charge of the elected Republicans actually tried to play the ‘change’ card on This Week on ABC. I caught it as I was doing something around the house and was waiting for the Celtics/Cav’s game to start. I stopped and let my jaw [...]

There is of course rumors and then there is the truth. But as for this development…McCain seems to be skirting the issue by saying his national finance co-chair Tom Loeffler is only a ‘part time’ volunteer.
Yeah right..whatever. The man has Saudi Arabia as a friggin client. His company must work real hard for those Saudi’s [...]

If there’s any doubt as to what John McCain stands for–or should I say DOESN’T stand for?– one only has to take a look at his opposition to the Webb Bill for veterans. For those of you who missed this–and you’re God awful lucky if you did, John McCain has come out against [...]

The MSM seems to have Alzheimer’s when it comes to McCain’s ’spiritual guide’ Ron Parsley. Thanks to Mother Jones and Brave New Films, we get to see Parsley in all his..um…glory, at work preaching the …cough…word..of God. From the BNF site:
You may have heard of Rev. John Hagee, the McCain supporter who said God created [...]

I know McCain isn’t stupid..but for the love of Buddha wtf is the deal with asking healthcare industry lobbyists to craft a plan for him? From CAF we get this lil tidbit:
