Harvey imagines Gwen Ifill’s reaction to challenges that she’s not impartial for tonight’s VP debate:
“It’s pretty simple,” said Ifill, “if Obama wins, I sell more books, which means I make more money. As moderator of the Vice Presidential debate, I’m in a position to help make sure that happens. That’s not a conflict of interest, […]

Regional Transportation District. Let’s think about that name. Regional. Transportation. District. RTD. Their goal is to get you out of your car and onto a bus/lightrail car. Perhaps the single best incentive for that has been the EcoSystem pass, where businesses can purchase all-access transit passes for their employees. Now RTD wants to dump this […]

In this fascinating article on foreign policy, Joshua Muravchik examines the past 100 years or so of foreign policy decision (don’t worry, it’s not comprehensive - would I do that to you?) and looks at some of the major decisions that have had an impact on current policy.
Specifically as it relates to the arguments surrounding […]

In an Asian Times article that’s already old (Sept 3) Spengler looks at the Democratic National Convention from a different perspective than most of whats been passed around the blogosphere. He was there, for one thing. I know nothing about this writer, so I can’t tell if his critique of Obama is newly realized from […]

but not his running mate. Joe Biden, yesterday:
I’m prepared as a matter of faith to accept that life begins at the moment of conception.
As a reminder, just last month Obama said he couldn’t answer the question as to when human life begins because it’s “above his pay grade.” Not even a statement that anyone could […]

I’m not sure this is exactly reassuring to gun owners:
Even if I want to take them away, I don’t have the votes in Congress.

Jooooooe Biiiiiiiden, (D), currently running for the office of Vice-President of the United States.
Announcer one: “Well Ted, I gotta say, I have been watching this game for a long time and I don’t think that I have ever seen this kind of speed by a candidate. The way he literally changed his public position overnight […]

…because that’s what the left does, after all, when they find their arguments are wrong from beginning to end. Then if the dirty tricks don’t work, they sue to get their way. So when does the suing start?
Mr. Bob found this interesting piece of nastiness on LGF:
Suddenly appearing among the Google search results for “sarah […]

You have to give her that. Although tomorrow morning, the MSM won’t. Geraghty puts it nicely:
Tonight, we either saw a watershed in American politics, a tour de force, the most striking and graceful debut in our nation’s political life, and a national introduction that makes Barack Obama’s 2004 convention address look like small potatoes… or […]

Just helping out where I can.
Background here.
UPDATE: Heh, I like this response.

Interesting post this morning on The Next Right. Matt Moon reminds us that most VP picks have historically played the role of hatchetman; to go after the opposition ruthlessly without directly putting the presidential nominee in that role. Sarah Palin wasn’t selected for that role, though - an important distinction from past nominees.
The point that […]
