Divisive alarms 12:43pm on 18 Nov 2008 I think she would make a good Secretary of State.

She's far more popular abroad than she is at home and it also keeps her away from the Senate, where she could start plotting against Obama

Off topic, but a great article by Lionel Shriver about Sarah Palin. If she was fat and ugly, she never would have got as far as she did

Also a Great episode of reliable sources from CNN.

Turnout turnaround? 9:59pm on 11 Nov 2008 Missouri Presidential race is not over

Neither is Al Franken in Minnesota.

The final popular vote tally for the Presidential election is 52.6 to 46.1.
Soft imperalism 01:39am on 04 Nov 2008 Very sad that Obama's Granny won't see history made tomorrow. I can't add to what Andew Sullivan says here.

The wiser view 5:02pm on 02 Nov 2008 Astonishing early voting numbers coming out of Georgia and North Carolina and many other states with large black populations

Remember in 2004, only 51% of blacks voted.
Obama in enemy territory 03:08am on 02 Nov 2008 Sunday Times endorses Obama

Obama in enemy territory 02:42am on 01 Nov 2008 Even Matt Drudge's favourite Gallup model is now indicating an Obama landslide

According to early voting returns, Obama may have already won New Mexico and Colorado.

Another funny Palin video

Bad losers and bad finishers 01:36am on 31 Oct 2008 Ref: 453 Dominick,

The average national poll lead is 6 points today. The Fox poll has been discredited as deliberately contrived
http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_daily_dish/2008/10/how-fox-mislead.html

If you look at the state polls, Obama now has quite a healthy lead in Ohio, is well up in Virginia and PA and is still neck and neck in North Carolina, Missouri and Indiana - 3 states that he doesn't need to win.

In Florida he leads by 4 in the latest poll.

McCain's support has surged in states that he will win anyway like Kentucky, Tennessee and Alabama
Bad losers and bad finishers 2:51pm on 30 Oct 2008 http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/10/30/joe-the-plumber-to-team-up-with-mccain-thursday/#comments

Joe the plumber to appear with McCain today!

McCain should avoid this fool like the plague. He can't win this election by appealing to the core vote. Look at the way independents in New Hampshire have rejected this strategy
Bad losers and bad finishers 02:17am on 30 Oct 2008 http://www.fivethirtyeight.com/2008/10/mccain-miami-rally-getting-ugly-down.html

Good to see that not everyone at Fox News is completely biased!

When Joe the Plumber says Obama is not a "real American", I think it's fairly obvious what he's trying to say. If this idiot is the future of the GOP, the party will be in the wilderness for many years.

Ref: 22, yes, the national polls have tightened but not the state polls which indicates that McCain is surging in places that he doesn't need to like Kentucky, Oklahoma and West Virginia. Let's face it, the rednecks were never going to vote for Obama.
Are they bluffing? 4:13pm on 28 Oct 2008 It's quite amusing and a little sad to watch Fox babe Megyn Kelly genuinely think she's being "fair and balanced"
