This is a little different than the normal diary, but one I think could be beneficial to some people on this website.

The Daily Kos readership ranges from well-known politicians to casual observers of the political process. I know many on the site would like to be more educated about politics beyond the news, campaigns/elections and current policy discussion.

This is a short diary, as I feel like it's Super Bowl Sunday (or at least a good playoff game during the political season).

Tonight is Barack's night and McCain is already on the defensive, facing a hostile crowd who will require and explanation for McCain's tactics during a serious economic crisis.

Ted Kennedy has just sent an email with a link where you can submit a question to Alito.

I think striking down this nomination is critically important to the future of our country...so although many of you may have received this email, I hope some others who have not submit a question and then spread the word.

Ask Alito

The email does not specifically say what will be done with these questions, but if there are several submitted, there is a better chance that something positive will come of this effort.

I just saw a campaign ad (I'm not sure who sponsored the ad, but I can only assume it was Corzine -I missed the "Paid for xxx")

It focused on how Doug Forrester (NJ Republican candidate) agrees with GWB on upper-class tax cuts, education cuts for NJ, putting the burden of environmental clean-up on consumers vs. corporations and a few other issues.

The tagline for the ad was something like:

George Bush supports Doug Forrester for governor, do you?

This is exactly the kind of messaging candidates should be using all across the country, especially those states and districts with high levels of "voter remorse" (as coined by another Kossack).

As many of you probably know, Howard Dean sent an email today asking for contributions to Ferrer's campaign.

While I will vote for Ferrer, he is widely viewed as a huge underdog. I am interested in others views of this outreach by the DNC? Do you think it will have an effect on the election if several major party contributors decide to fund his campaign?

See some of Dean's message on the other side... Read More

MSNBC: Referring to Bush "I take responsibility"

CNN: Bush 'I take responsibility'

ABC: Bush 'I take responsibility'

CBS: Bush 'I take responsibility'

And finally...

FoxNews: "Roberts in the Hot Seat" - where on the sidebar "Bush takes responsibility" is right underneath "NO Airport to Reopen"

Fox -- you cannot hide the truth anymore.

I'm not sure if any diaries have covered this issue, but I'm going to write about it anyway...

This from U.S. Newswire, earlier this week:

In a quote regarding the Astrodome by Barbara Bush on the Keith Olbermann Show, she stated, "the conditions in the Dome are sufficient enough for those people since they were underprivileged anyway."

I cannot believe how out of touch this family is from the rest of America.
