This isn't long enough to constitute a diary, but I'm watching CSPAN where Sen. John McCain is talking about how this is "not a stimulus bill, it's a spending bill." Since there isn't an open thread available, I figured I'd create this diary for those who may be following the events on CSPAN and would like to comment.

Thune, Graham, and others (according to McCain) will be up to speak. Yay! McCain is railing against the lack of bipartisanship during the crafting of the bill. He alleges that the Speaker of the House implied that since Democrats won, they will be crafting the bill without the help of Republicans. (Close enough paraphrase.)

Finally shaking myself out of a thick fog of elation and unbelievability, I ventured out to my local 7-Eleven, hoping that I could snag a copy of today's editions of the Washington Post, Washington Times, and USA Today. Granted it was 3:00PM when I decided to make this trip, I was hoping that I would be able to grab maybe even torn copies of these publications.

I will admit up front that this idea is not my own. I was over at TPM and came across this post that Josh Marshall highlighted, and it is something that I agree with. All of us politically active American citizens who intend on successfully getting Barack Obama into the White House have got to modify the current attack that we are using against John McCain. From all accounts, McCain is far more unstable than George W. Bush and will thus be even more destructive. So why don't we drive that point home?

I am unclear as to whether this constitutes some sort of violation, but I am hoping that the original poster of the below and Josh do not mind that I have brought this over to Dkos share this person's insight in order for us to change our strategy.

I don't know if there are specific rules against writing about the activities of an organization that DailyKos is associated with, so I present this to the readership with the hope that I am not breaking any rules. I'd also like to disclaim that I am not a staff member at MoveOn.org or a judge of or one of the 15 finalists for their "Obama in 30 Seconds" contest.

All of that being said, I thought I would share my feelings as to some of the ads. If you haven't had a chance to take a peek at the finalists, I urge you to head over there now. The range of perspectives on the significance of Sen. Barack Obama's candidacy is truly mind-boggling. Who could have predicted that this once obscure politician would have such a profound effect on massive numbers of people? Certainly not I.

Because I was so impressed by the creativity of and inspiration in these ads, I was compelled into making my first donation to MoveOn.org. One of these advertisements deserves to be aired on television, so I hope others who have not yet made a contribution will be encouraged to donate to the cause as I have.

This is my first diary and it's a partial one so don't flame me. Ha!

I didn't see a diary begun as to Obama on Fox News Sunday, but it is thirty minutes in here in Maryland. I thought that this could be used as an open diary to discuss the interview.

Thus far, I think Obama is holding his own pretty well and Fox News hasn't made any obvious edits that could be slanted. But this is just my initial opinion. He has addressed Wright, Ayers, flag pins...
