37,000,000 is the headline on Drudge right now. I'm sure you'll hear that a great deal from the empty wagons of the right. The overnight ratings for the Palin speech is in and 37 Million people witnessed the rhetorical disgrace that was Sarah Palin's speech.

More after the jump.

Michael Jordan couldn't stay away from the game of Basketball.
Brett Farve couldn't stay away from the football field.
Barry Bonds wants to come back and round the bases once more.

The thrill of existing in the competitive arena in which a person elevates himself to the status of legends is hard to walk away from.

Today, another legendary figure is reported to have returned to their legendary perch for another round. The Sultan of Slander, The Grand Poobah of Puppetry, the man that showed us that treason is not a crime, it's a hobby; Karl Rove is back.

From TPM on August 16th:

Loretta Sanchez: Half Of House Dems Could Vote For Hillary At Convention

In an indication that the Democratic Convention could unintentionally give an appearance of Democratic disunity, Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez of California is predicting that up to half of the House Dems could end up voting for Hillary Clinton under an open roll call. "I felt she was the most experienced and the best candidate and I still feel that way," Sanchez added -- though for the record, it should be noted that Hillary herself has said she personally plans on voting for Obama.

Under the haze of a new East Bay area morning, I flipped on MSNBC to hear a preview of what to expect during today's session at the convention. The usual Morning Joe drivel of plunging poll numbers for Obama and usual two-step of Mika B. playing Colmes to Scarbourough's Hannity made for great ambient noise over the buzz of my electric razor.

Dear Senator Obama,

Hey champ, how's it going? Why don't you just take a knee for a moment. I know your engrossed in a general election battle that's about as dirty as a pair of leather chaps in Sturgis. I know you have a cast of thousands supporting you in your bid to be President of these glorious United States. I know you have a wife and two beautiful children to tend after. I know.

But...I thought we had something special.

"Hey guys, I'm not the guy. See ya."

Liberals around the world are on the edge of their seat waiting for the Obama campaign to drain the proverbial VP announcement ball through the hoop. The Veepstakes at this point is like a high risk multiple choice question with two wrong answers (Kaine, Bayh) and one "ehh..." answer (Biden). We're looking at this announcement with a 66.6% margin of picking the sequel to Joe Lieberman.

Political junkies are devouring every morsel of coverage and the media must to meet our demand for all the non-existant details cameras can capture. This leaves reporters and cameramen to stalk possible candidates outside of their home like Britney Spears or Paris Hilton. I hope Joe Biden is wearing underwear.

I don't really say much on DailyKos unless I have a funny anecdote or a unique spin to put on current events. Otherwise, there are seasoned DKos vets in attendence that could take the ball through the giant orange satanic hoop for me. But today, I passed the ball off hoping to see a bit more sanity among the ranks of DKos members.

What an airball.

I'd like to think we can avoid the dialogue of "the sky is falling" when tough times hit progressives, but some never fail to drum up the concern chorus. Concern for Elizabeth Dole or concern for Barack Obama's campaign stops in North Carolina are understandable as this scandal casts an ominous presence over many entities.

But never for a second do I feel that John Edwards owes me anything.

Chamomile?
Green?
The sleepy bear night night tea my grandmother used to make me?

No, none of the sort. Today if you join me in raising a cup with your pinky out, we will enjoy the soft aroma of Chinese Brick Tea. This variety doesn’t come loose so I have to boil a big pot anyway, so I hope you’ll join me for a sip of this rare herbal treat. Of course, the celebration isn’t just about tea fellow kossacks. This is about what this tea represents.

Before telecom immunity, thumbs up for torture and the Patriot Act was ever drafted over Mojitos at Bohemian Grove, there was a different brand of injustice going on. Imagine in 1764 paying your everyday price of a few coins a cup for your delectable steaming herbal tea. After you leave the general store you head over to the post office and leave with a few stamps to write that letter to your sweetie across the pond. Life doesn’t get any better than this, right?

Fast forward to 1768 and all hell has broken loose? Prices for tea has forced you to boil hot, herbless water only left with the faint memory of tea leaves for taste. You haven’t written your loved one in months because the price of stamps are out of this world! What has happened to my colonial America?! Something must be done!

I'd like to approach the "Big Orange Satan" with a confession.

I have a spidey sense.

Made famous by the web-enabled super-demon Spider-Man, a spidey sense is a delightful tingling that occurs in your cranium that alerts you when something goes ary. Oddly enough, my spidey senses can never tell me when I'm going to meet the woman of my nightmares, fall prey to a predatory lender or tell me that I'm about to get mugged. I've come to learn the blessing of detecting trouble can only be applied to rogue Supreme Court rulings. Yeah, I'm not really amped about that either.

As of late, friends and family have become concerned for the direction of our country solely because I've been giggling like a schoolgirl at pretty inappropriate moments (namely funerals, board meetings and threesome that didn't end well).

The word Menikmati means "to enjoy" in Malay.

The great people of New Hampshire got a chance to enjoy the great privledge of going to the polls to let America know who their delegates should support. The rest of America could only stand on the sidelines and observe the race from their TV and Computer terminals. I know I would've enjoyed it if Super Tuesday was yesterday, but I guess I have to enjoy the process until the States can bring my Primary fantasy to life.

Hilary Clinton certainly enjoyed her tenure in New Hampshire. Twenty-four hours ago, MSNBC was showing footage of Clinton getting choked up when fielding questions concerning her campaign. The Anti-Hillary crowd tasted blood and ran with it flaunting Obama's 12 point lead in polls. They did taste blood Tuesday morning, but little did they know...it was their own.
