McCain unsure if he'd support Palin for president Posted: 01:59 PM ET Sen. John McCain says he may not necessary support Gov. Sarah Palin if she she runs in 2012 CNN) – Sen. John McCain said Sunday he would not necessarily support his former running mate if she chose to run for president. Speaking to ABC's "This Week," McCain was asked whether Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin could count on his support. "I can't say something like that. We've got some great other young governors. I think you're going to see the governors assume a greater leadership role in our Republican...

Tuesday´s debate between Senators McCain and Obama was relative uneventful in my eyes except for McCain´s "That one" statement when referring to his opponent. Now, this may seem insignificant to McCain backers and maybe even to some Obama, but is it insignificant? McCain´s camp has said it was just Senator McCain´s attempt at humor. I was not smiling. Making the statement "that one" can conjure up some bad memories for some folks. "Which slave do you want masta? That one," the White slave-owner says. "What toy do you want son? That one," the child whines. "Which one of these men...

In an episode of 'The Simpsons' slated to run November 2, Homer Simpson will vote for Barack Obama. As Homer tries to vote for Obama, a machine changes the vote to McCain and proceeds to kill him.

Senator McCain is on Fox and Friends talking now. They asked him why he didn't get credit for helping the economy while Barack Obama was the invisible man nd he said because "life isn't fair." They asked him if he thought a moderator who was writing a pro-Obama book was acceptable and he said "life isn't fair." He talks like someone who has already lost.

I thought it would be funny to create a parody of SarahPalinFacts.com for Obama. However, someone already thought of it long ago. But, it's lame, lame, lame.... See for yourself.

Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama prepared to name his running mate, perhaps as early as Friday, from a small field o0f candidates that included at least one dark horse.

On the eve of Prime Minister Gordon Brown's visit to Washington last week, a British pollster suggested Brown's meetings with presidential candidates Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and John McCain would be more important than his talks with President Bush. The president is "irrelevant," the pollster said, echoing what has become a view widely held in Washington. With only nine months left in his presidency and low approval ratings, Bush lacks political power. He's a lame duck. In fact, he's not that lame. This is a common misperception about Bush (and a pet peeve of mine). In Washington, the political community...

I thought principled politics was supposed to be all about me. And if it doesn't go my way, I'm allowed to throw a tantrum, turn blue, kick my feet, flail my arms, threaten to support and vote for Hillary or Obama just to make my point. I mean, I didn't get my way. This is just like not getting my candy at the checkout counter. I didn't get my toy in the toy department. People took me out of control of my party and I'm mad. If I can't control my party, then I have to play nice and be...

Davenport, Iowa - Desperate to reach voters in Iowa, an embarrassed Ron Paul today admitted looking in a Davenport woman's bathroom window, apologizing for the incident later in the day. "We were going door to door and not finding many people at home, though their cars were there and televisions all seemed to be on," began Paul. "I guess I just got a little frustrated and went too far. I heard this beautiful voice singing and went see if I could find it. (Sheepishly) Well I found her and..you know the rest."

In the 10 years of the BCS era, we've seen pretty much everything. Perhaps the only major development we've yet to see is a two-loss team in the BCS Championship Game. Later today, that one should become a reality. The million-dollar question is: Which two-loss team will it be? Jim Tressel has watched as other teams have helped Ohio State's title cause. At least seven teams, including once-beaten Ohio State and Kansas, are likely to receive second-place votes in the polls. If the voters rank teams based on perceived strength (who would win on a neutral field), any number of...

Harry Reid speaking from the floor right now, trying to key in as fast as I can .... ... and furthermore, the United States Senate now officially condemns Ann Coulter, not only that, but due to grievousness of her comments, we feel we've no choice but to enact the "Fairness Doctrine"....we must protect the American people from this right wing hornets’ nest praying on innocent Americans and poisoning their minds ..." More breaking ..... /sarcasm folks

ORANGEBURG, S.C. - Democratic presidential candidates criticized President Bush over the Iraq war Thursday night in the first debate of their campaign, and urged him to reconsider his threat to veto legislation to begin withdrawing U.S. troops. "If this president does not get us out of Iraq, when I am president, I will," said Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York. In the debate's opening moments, Clinton also found herself on the receiving end of criticism, when former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards said she or anyone else who voted to authorize it should "search their conscience." Edwards, in the...

I am a reasonable Liberal America is a great place... but we need to be more like Europe. I am a reasonable Liberal I love America... except for its history, its culture, its societal structure, and its politics. I am a reasonable Liberal I hate politicians that lie... unless they have a last name of Clinton... or Kerry... or, well, any Democrat's last name. I am a reasonable Liberal I think everyone should have their say... unless they say it in school, government, or in public.

As many people have commented, global warming is the new religion. As such, it is the only religion that is permissible – if not mandatory – I schools. What would any religion be without it’s own prayer? Christianity has the Lord’s Prayer and Islam has incessant, mindless wailing so why not global warming? To address this imbalance I give you, “The Gores Prayer.” Our secular Father, who art not in Heaven, Al Gore be thy name. They green kingdom come, If thy will be done, in the US as it is in Europe Give us this day our dose of...

Thank you for giving us blanket amnesty for illegals. Thank you for courageously abandoning our troops. Thank you for handing victory to the terrorists. Thank you for guaranteeing higher taxes. Thank you for guaranteeing no more conservative judges. Thank you for empowering John McCain. Thank you for bringing back universal health care. Thank you for endless investigations. Most of all, I want to thank you for showing complete disregard for the tens of thousands who spilled their blood to give you your right to vote. Your callous, self-serving apathy has guaranteed the government actions that you so bitterly complained about....

Well, I gave Katie a chance...an honest chance. I watched her debut and I watched her tonight, since Rush was on. Not a damn thing has changed except the gender of the person in the anchor chair. The leftist drivel is a joke. Tonight, perky Katie apparently believes a 5 or 6 year old video tape of Useless never-bin-Laiden is a triumph of terror over Bush's liberation of 50 million Muslims in Afghanistan and Iraq. The BIG LEAD of the night was something like "On a day when the President says we're safer in the war on terror, Al...

'Global dimming' is darkening the globe: experts Updated Sat. Jul. 29 2006 10:07 AM ET Andy Johnson, CTV.ca News Global dimming may be the yin to global warming's yang. The theory is that the amount of sunlight, or solar energy, falling on the earth has been dropping steadily over the past 50 years or so. That could mean, scientists believe, that global dimming is actually mitigating the effects of global warming. That sounds quirky and intriguing at first, but a closer investigation turns up some frightening results. One of the first people to observe the phenomenon was an English scientist...
