Obama meets advisers, plans economic update
Fri Apr 10, 2009
- On the bright side, at least Obama had the decency to speak about the economy on a day that Wall Street was closed for the holiday, in order to avoid the inevitable tank session that generally follows his pearls of wisdom...

Campaigns shift to attacks on eve of debate
Tue Oct 7, 2008
- In reality, McCain should have started questioning NoBama's character a long time ago. This is not lying. This is not a "smear" tactic. You just can't make this stuff up.  
Expectations low, Palin scores in debate

Style often trumps substance in debates
Thu Oct 2, 2008
- Russ-KTLM- No doubt the Obama website is "non-partisan". You still have not named one single solitary piece of Obama legislation that has "changed" America for the better. Not a single one.
