-Michelle Bachman was elected in 2006 from the area above where I live. I have never been more ashamed of a politician from my state.

-Mitch McConnell, the Republican leader in the Senate is tied with Bruce Lunsford, a corrupt, conservative Democrat. McConell is also corrupt and far more conservative but it's hard to get exited about this race.

-Is it just me, or does anyone else think it's amazing that the debate avoided completely the Israeli/Palestine conflict?

-Steve Clemons and Fareed Zakaria are right, Sarah Palin is in no way qualified to be vice president. The fact that McCain picked her speaks extremely poorly of his judgment, in my opinon.
