“Mitt Romney said the 47 percent of people who don’t pay taxes are going to vote for Obama. You know what that means? He’s going to vote for Obama.” – Jay Leno “If you take the 47 percent that Mitt Romney says pay no taxes and add that to the people who Obama says cling […]

I’m off camping for the weekend and won’t have any internet access. Back Sunday night. Besides, I need a break from the longest, most annoying presidential race in history.

Jon Stewart on Fox News defending Romney’s video comments calling 47% of Americans “freeloaders”: I know they believe that the best defense is a (good?) offense, but um, seriously? “This is factually accurate, what Romney is saying.” ??? “I don’t understand what the controversy is. I think Mr. Romney should campaign on this point.” ??? […]

“Mitt Romney said if he had Mexican parents, he’d have a better shot of winning… But unfortunately Romney was tragically held back by being born of rich white people.” – Conan O’Brien “Mitt Romney was here meeting with the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. He’s looking for a housekeeper for his place in La Jolla.” – […]

© Mario Piperni I keep thinking about something David Brooks said about Romney — “Personally, I think he’s a kind, decent man who says stupid things because he is pretending to be something he is not — some sort of cartoonish government-hater.” I think part of the reason Romney is turning out to be such […]

I have to say that originally I found the story a bit silly. I felt […]

Or is everyone starting to tune out of the upcoming election? Yes, I’ll almost certainly watch the first debate, and if it is worthwhile, I might even watch the rest of them too. And I will definitely vote. I always do. Not only is this the most costly presidential election in our history (total spending […]

© David Horsey So let’s add this up. Polls say that around 98% of Americans have already decided whether they are going to vote for Barack Obama or Mitt Romney. But the more important number is actually smaller, since we only care about likely voters (people who are probably going to vote). So at most […]

In New York magazine, liberal Frank Rich reports on his experiment of immersing himself, “listening to, watching, reading, surfing, and otherwise gorging on conservative media” during the week of the Republican national convention. His conclusions do not paint a pretty picture for the future of the Republican party. My favorite quote: What did I learn […]

© Tom Tomorrow Mitt Romney and his campaign staff (whom the NY Daily News calls a band of clowns) don’t seem to know when to shut up. And Liz Cheney tries to blast Barack Obama, but ends up shooting herself in the foot (at least it wasn’t the face like her dad): We’ve now had […]
