Nancy's gone and done it now! Time will tell, but just hearing these words makes my heart skip a beat.

"She believes some senior Bush officials — such as Harriet Miers, Josh Bolten, and Karl Rove — will be prosecuted."

Full story from Think Progress:

Pelosi foresees prosecution of senior Bush administration officials.

Last month, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said she is open to pursuing investigations of abuses by the Bush Justice Department. "I want to see the truth come forth," she said. But in a new interview with Rolling Stone, Pelosi went a step further, saying that she believes some senior Bush officials — such as Harriet Miers, Josh Bolten, and Karl Rove — will be prosecuted:

ABC News is reporting that Hillary Clinton's replacement might just be Caroline Kennedy!

Another Senator Kennedy? The crazy speculation about Hillary Clinton's Senate seat may not be so crazy after all. A Democrat who would know tells ABC News that New York governor David Paterson has talked to Caroline Kennedy about taking the seat, which was once held by her uncle, Robert F. Kennedy. It’s not exactly shocking that Paterson would reach out to one of the most highly respected public figures in New York, but this is: Sources say Kennedy is considering it, and has not ruled out coming to Washington to replace Hillary Clinton in the Senate.

A few years ago, the famously private Caroline Kennedy would be the last Kennedy expected to serve in Congress, but of course, she took on a much more high-profile role during the presidential campaign and, if she does it, would be more than New York’s junior Senator; she’d have closer ties to the Obama White House than any of her colleagues, a direct line to the East Wing.

For three days now, Obama has been 5 points ahead of McCain in Rasmussen's Daily Tracking Poll. As someone noted below (h/t drowner1), this is not their final tracker - they have on elast one tomorrow. So, consider this tracker the final one before voting begins. ;-)

Today he's moved up a notch to 6:

On Monday, the final full day of campaigning for Election 2008, the Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll shows Barack Obama with 52% of the vote while John McCain is six points back at 46%. That’s up a single point for Obama from his 51% to 46% advantage yesterday. There is just one more night of tracking and our final results for Election 2008 will be published here tomorrow morning at 9:30 a.m. Eastern.

Barack Obama has hit 52% in the latest Rasmussen's daily tracking poll!!

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows Barack Obama attracting 52% of the vote while John McCain earns 44%. This is the highest level of support ever recorded for Obama and is his largest lead of the year. It also continues a remarkable twenty-five days in a row where the Democrat’s support has never declined by even a single point. The Democratic candidate has gained six full percentage points of support since Lehman Brothers collapsed to start the Wall Street mess (see trends).

Barack Obama has hit 50% in the latest Rasmussen's daily tracking poll!!

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows Barack Obama attracting 50% of the vote while John McCain earns 45%. This is Obama’s biggest lead since his convention bounce peaked with a six-point advantage. In fact, on only two days since clinching the Democratic nomination in early June has Obama enjoyed a lead bigger than he has today (see trends).

It seems McCain's handling of the economic crisis this week is really starting to take it's toll in Rasmussen's new daily tracking poll:

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows Barack Obama attracting 49% of the vote while John McCain earns 46%. Other than the bounces related to his convention and speech in Berlin, this is the first time Obama has had 49% support on back-to-back days since early July. It’s also McCain’s lowest level of support in nearly three weeks (see trends).

This is great. 37 Million people tuned in to watch a disaster. People on the outside looking it were not only shocked by how this woman they didn't know was so biting, shrill & sarcastic, but then then watched her mock the very thing that most people understand to be a good thing, community organizing, in the majority of most American's lives.

From TV Week:

An estimated 37 million people watched Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, the Republican nominee for U.S. vice president, during her star-making debut at the Republican National Convention Wednesday night, according to preliminary local data from Nielsen Media Research.

Gov. Palin’s audience eclipsed the 26 million who watched Sen. Hillary Clinton’s speech on the second night of the Democratic convention last week and the 24 million who watched speech the delivered on night three by Gov. Palin’s Democratic counterpart, Sen. Joe Biden.

The U.S. Constitution: $6.11, shipped

I just finished sending copies of the U.S. Constitution to Steny Hoyer, Nancy Pelosi, Rahm Emanuel, Harry Reid & Jay Rockefeller.

Basically, my note in each packaged said, "You should try reading this sometime" with only a slight variation on each.

It cost $6.11 each, shipped from Barnes and Noble. They had to be shipped separately obviously, but it was, for me, well worth the cost.

Here's the link/book:

Well folks, it's seems that the viral video is going mainstream.

Jason Linkins over at Huffington Post has a short story up: McCain 'C-Word' Moment Becomes Fodder For Satirists.

Here's Jason's post:

The satirists at Public Service Administration have already scored numerous hits over the campaign season with their high-production value skewerings of both candidates and media. Their send up of Obama's will.i.am song "Yes We Can" managed to both mock the earnestness of the original while emphasizing just how little optimism is generated by John McCain's policies and positions. And for my money, their "Bass Motives" is a blast of cathartic humor for anyone who is already sick to death of campaign commercials.

CNN is full of shit (see report from them below).

Al Giordano:

The Field can now confirm, based on multiple sources, something that both campaigns publicly deny: that Senator Clinton has directly told Senator Obama that she wants to be his vice presidential nominee, and that Senator Obama politely but straightforwardly and irrevocably said "no." Obama is going to pick his own running mate based on his own criteria and vetting process.

And that is all that anybody needs to know to understand the childish and wounded behavior of Senator Clinton yesterday, grandstanding hypocritically to senior citizens in Florida, telling them they should consider themselves under sniper fire in Bosnia, er, Zimbabwe, aggrandizing herself as some kind of civil rights leader (MLK? or LBJ? She didn’t say this time) and attempting to corner 30 members of the DNC’s Rules & Bylaws Committee that will meet on May 31 to resolve the disputes over whether, and, if so, how, delegates from Michigan and Florida might be seated at the convention in August.

From a BBC Press Release Link on BBC-America:

April 25, 2008

MARTIN SHEEN ANNOUNCES SUPPORT FOR OBAMA ON THE GRAHAM NORTON SHOW

The Graham Norton Show episode with Martin Sheen, comedian Ed Byrne and musical guests Will.i.am and Cheryl Cole will premiere on Saturday, May 3, 10:00 p.m. ET/PT on BBC AMERICA.

The Brit talk show kicks off its third season on BBC AMERICA this Saturday, April 26, 10:00 p.m. ET/PT with Tony Curtis, Kevin Bacon and musical guest Robyn. Graham Norton takes the audience and celebrity guests one step further than other talk shows dare and this season continues that tradition.

Tony looked terrible btw, but when he could remember, told a good story. Kevin was funny, especially when he got Graham to go find the YouTube video some guy made of him that started out nice but ended up with a stick figure of Kevin get it from behind from the guy who made the video. Very funny. Unfortunately, Youtube removed the video already otherwise I would include it).

Now back to the main event...
