Almost falling off the stage....

Joe the plumber=Joe Six pack

Last night in the debate McCain used a tactic that did not workout so well: Joe the plumber. If the plumbers name had been Robert would this strategy still be used? Not for the McCain camp. The McCain campaign seems to have an infatuation with the Joes of America. I think they just wanted to put a face to Joe Six Pack who Palin continues to use as describing the average American. What about the Johns, toms and heaven forbid even the women in America?

who knew New Hamshire was in the great north west?

Palin makes another blunder while at a rally in Dover, New Hamshire. Take a look at this

The Women In McCain's life

After tonight's discussion on a woman's role in the elections I did some research on the mysterious roles the women play in McCain's campaign. Here is an article I discovered in Elle magazine.

Debate 2 round 1

While watching the debate I was looking through articles about the debate. I found this one, which speaks about the debate in past tense, it was written at 10:04. The tone of this article shows how the media has proconceived notions of the way the debate is going to go. The media knows how they are going to report the debate before it even happens, why have debates at all? The media is the one forming the candidates, and how voter view them, not the debates.

Keating Economics and Fighting Back

Now McCain admits that he was wrong when supporting Keating eleven years ago. The Keating situation is a miniature replica as to what is going on with the current economy. This is an ad that the Obama campaign released shortly after Palin used the fear tactic when discussing Obama's relationship with Ayerss. The media allows and mediates quick reaction time for both campaigns. When one candidate says something the media already knows what the other candidate will say in response.

The Inner workings of Palin...Who has the time to figure this out?


Sarah Palin healed by witch doctor

Bill Maher talks about Governor Palin's religious beliefs. Maher says if there was a video of Senator being cured by a witch doctor the election would be over, and then goes on to announce that Palin does in-fact have a video of her being cured by a witch doctor. Who says the media is too tough on Palin, because if they really were they would be showing this video left and right.

Even Homer Simpson cannot work a booth

In this hysterical Simpson cartoon, Homer first cannot his oversized belly into the booth, and later realizes that the machine is rigged. He continues to vote for Obama but anyway he touches the screen it says "one vote for McCain." When he figures out the booth is rigged, the machine kills him in order to shut him up.

Dictator McCain

Does Senator McCain really aspire to be a dictator? Another similarity between him and Bush.

why did she call him joe?

I am still confused as to why Governor Palin asked Senator Biden if she could call him Joe. The media has not picked up on it as much as I would have expected. I thought it was extremely disrespectful, and not once did Senator Biden call her Sarah.

Men Reporting on Men

When watching Hardball tonight and the commentary on last night's Veep debate I found that Chris Matthews and the other male pundents had no clue how to comment on a man (Joe Biden). They discussed how energetic Palin had been, but as a woman I feel that Biden showed just as much energy and charisma as Governor Palin, and men have a more difficult time as picking that up or articulating it. It made wonder if when men talk about Palin's energy are they referring to her sex appeal.
