Obama & McCain Meeting...

John McCain IV graduated from the Naval Academy this weekend... Is it just me, or is anyone else thinking this picture ends with a kiss?

It's just me...

TV Watch

The more I see Obama in action, the more I like him. National Geographic is producting a new series on Air Force One and has an exclusive of Obama's first trip with the new Captain (when we change presidents, the captain of AF1 changes, too... who knew?).

I also learned you can follow AF1 on Twitter... now, if I could only understand Twitter.

Something to Think About...


The next time you're talking to a friend, acquaintance or family member that is planning on voting for McCain and they’re not concerned about Sarah Palin’s qualifications to be Vice President; show them the quote below from NBC Nightly News’ Brian Williams. It puts the whole thing into a chilly perspective:

“The other way of looking at it is: it’s September 11, 2001. The President is airborne and the Secret Service won’t yet let him land, because we know that little of what has just happened to us. The Vice-President has taken hold of the machinery of government inside the White House. He is in the Secure Tank. That’s also the job description we’re talking about here. That’s part of the choice we get to make in 32 days.”

Think she could handle the situation? Hell no.

Chose Hope.

It's Over: Why Bill Ayers Won't Save John McCain

Perpetually fretting Democrats will not want to accept it. The campaigns themselves can't afford to believe it. Many journalists know it but can't say it. And there will certainly be some twists and turns along the way. But take it to a well capitalized bank: Bill Ayers isn't going to save John McCain. The race is over. (Read the rest here.)

McCain Served by Hilton... Laughs Ensue.

I'm sure you've heard Kathy Hilton's response to that McCain ad that used Paris' image to mock Obama. I think Joel McHale from The Soup put it best:
