Yesterday, former U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell, a Republican, endorsed Democratic candidate Barack Obama for President despite long-standing support for John McCain. While I agree with the reasoning in many of the statements he made as to why he has endorsed Obama instead of McCain, it is unclear what, if any, impact this [...]

Below are the videos of Republican Vice-Presidential candidate Sarah Palin on “Saturday Night Live.” I thought it showed good humor on her part to be on the show. I give her full credit despite what some critics might say. Take a look.

Jon Stewart had another very funny take on the political scene last night. He sees John McCain as a modern-day Dr. Frankenstein whose creation (an angry Republican base) has taken on a life of its own. Watch McCain’s reactions to angry yells from his rallies. Very interesting.
George Bush’s former press secretary Ari [...]

Conservative U.S. Columnist Kathleen Parker was a guest on Stephen Colbert’s show last night. She gained notoriety for her criticism of Sarah Palin as John McCain’s running mate. Below is a clip of her on Colbert giving her two cents on whether she has changed her mind about the candidates and why.

This comes from the Huffington Post:
“Jobs, baby, jobs.”

This comes from Politico:
Reprising a line she’s been delivering on stage with McCain since the GOP convention, Palin said of her running mate this morning in Virginia Beach: “Since he won’t say it on his own behalf, I’m gonna say it for my running mate here: There is only one man in this race who [...]

Talking about how he will fare against Barack Obama in the upcoming third and last U.S. Presidential Debate, John McCain said:
“We’re going to spend a lot of time and after I whip his you-know-what in this debate, we’re going to be going out 24/7.-Huffington Post

This from Politico. It’s hard to say at this point how this will change the race for the White House.
Sarah Palin violated the trust Alaskans placed in her as their governor in how she handled the events surrounding the firing of a state official who had refused to dismiss her ex-brother-in-law from his job [...]

The YouTube video below is gaining a wide audience on the Internet. It shows an Ohio blogger interviewing some McCain-Palin supporters after a speech and rally by Sarah Palin in that state earlier this week.
The blogger’s question to attendees of the rally is fairly straightforward: “Do you think Barack Obama is a terrorist?”

Apparently, John McCain did even worse than I thought in last night’s debate. He and Barack Obama both failed to present a step-by-step plan as to what they were going to do about America’s banking crisis. They both merely rehashed old plans they have been discussing for months. But, McCain failed more in that he presented something old as something new. And it wasn’t even his.
