I got this mailer from my New York State Assemblyman, Greg Ball, today. Looks like someone wants to corner the Tea Party vote...

REVOLT!

As a massive geek, I make it my business to keep up with the goings on in the life of our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. Lately, I've been noticing a lot of hints that maybe, just maybe, he might be a secret Kossack.

Wishful thinking perhaps, especially after the dazzlingly absurd spectacle we saw today.

In the immediate aftermath of Monserrate and Espada’s switcheroo, diaries analyzing the shenanigans in Albany proliferated. And each one had a common theme: there were always a number of people in the comments talking about how the disloyal Dems turned coat to keep the marriage equality bill off the floor.

So I was browsing the facebooks today, and I came across my friend Dan's album of pictures he took on campus at Stony Brook University today. I certainly hope he won't mind me sharing a few of them with you fine folks. Unfortunately, I couldn't be there since I graduated last year, but the counter-protest the College Dems came up with put a huge smile on my face.

I haven't seen this diaried anywhere yet; if I'm hopping on a bandwagon here, let me know...

We've all seen the Washington Post's illustration of the Obama and McCain tax plans, right?

It does a pretty good job of illustrating the differences between the two, and shows what a progressive tax plan should really look like.

But as Australian blogger Viveka Weiley points out, it doesn't quite do justice to the economic structure of the American population.

Check out the real deal below the fold!

Hey guys, I live in Southern New York, and I've volunteered to go canvassing in Pennsylvania this weekend. I want to do my part for this campaign, and this feels like the best way for me to make a difference. The only problem is, the campaign people haven't been able to find any kind souls to take me in for a night or two.

I've been assigned to the Allentown office in Lehigh County, which, sadly, is about a three hour drive from my home. Would anyone be willing to put me up for Friday and Saturday nights? I'll cover all my own food; all I need is a couch and a shower.

I know it's asking a lot for someone to take a complete stranger in. But I promise I'm not a psycho killer. Think of the smile it would put on our man Barack's face to see people trusting one another. (Was that laying it on too thick? We'll see...)

Shoot me an email at alex.s.walsh@gmail.com if you can lend a fellow a hand. Thanks everybody!

I've got a bit of a dilemma in my home life. I've got a very good relationship with my parents, who are pretty conservative, but I'm not sure how to tell my mother that I think she might be a little bit racist.
