While we won the big one in 2008, there were certainly a few disappointments. Prop 8 in California. Michelle Bachmann getting re-elected. And finally, the surprising near re-election of Ted Stevens over Mark Begich in Alaska. That was one I thought Begich had in the bag, especially since a recent poll had him up big after Steven's conviction. Well Alaska's best progressive blogger chimes in on some numbers that don't seem to add up....

Pretty cool vid picked up from mudflats.net. Would you ever ever see McCain-Palin supporters put up this much effort into anything other than spewing hate and calling people things they aren't? How great would it be to take Alaska and Arizona from them on e-day?

Apparently getting booed in Philly didn't teach them any lessons.

Anyone know what it's like get yourself wrapped up in a debate with someone you know isn't going to listen? Well I got myself wrapped up in such a situation. On a message board no less. An ideologue on the right had offered up some justifications on Gordon Liddy when I raised it responding to a post on Ayers. And I got myself all wrapped up expending time and energy to write it up a response that will ultimately be a waste because I know the guy isn't going to change his positions for anything. So I post it here to try and maximize the value of the time already spent. Enjoy.

I need to make this diary brief as I need to leave soon, but I just saw part of Chris Matthews discussion with congresswoman Michelle Bachman and his discussion of the robocalls... Go here: http://www.dailykos.com/...

My blood is boiling right now. As much as I'd like to let this ignore this insanity I think it is very dangerous. People like Bachman are the domestic terrorists of tomorrow... even today. More people like her and the folks at the Palin rallies will emerge if these lies are not challenged.

So McCain made some right wing guy in Ohio a fifteen minute celebrity. So he's using his fifteen minutes to regurgitate McCain's talking points as if he's a policy expert. So he may be related to Charles Keating, or didn't pay his taxes, or is a registered Republican. And the media is eating it up, being played by the McCain gimmick like a fiddle. Relax! And let it go.
