Have you been having trouble this week keeping track of what day it is?  I’m not complaining about the Thursday Holidays, mind you – but it’s made for some serious disorientation.  Nice and quiet at work, though.  I’ve been digging through things I hadn’t gotten to for months, and my in-box is down to just [...]

That’s really it, just WOW!
The Phillies’ bats came alive in a real big way last night, as they blew the Rays out 10 to 2. Tonight’s game five, still in Philadelphia, could be the end of the Series!
It’s great to see Ryan Howard producing the way we know he can. And how amazing was that [...]

The Phillies pulled out a squeaker of a win last night, and yours truly is paying the price this morning.  Well worth it, though (or I should say Werth it).  Cole Hamels looked very strong, Chase Utley came through with a first inning 2-run homer … and when (not if) Ryan Howard gets on track [...]

It was a good run, Red Sox … but now it’s up to the Phillies to take the devil out of those Rays, I guess.  A rested Philadelphia team meets the Rays in Florida for game 1 on Wednesday night.  Here’s hoping for either a good, exciting, long Series or (my personal favorite) a four [...]

Make-Believe Maverick, by Tim Dickinson appears on Rollingstone.com. JordanCornblog has already published a link to the Dickinson article on this blog, I just learned. So this post serves as a second “thumbs up”. The article reports McCain’s actual choices while a POW, an account provided by Air Force lieutenant colonel John Dramesi, who was also [...]

Check out Susan’s comment on Alison’s post yesterday (and Welcome, Alison — I’m looking forward to hearing what you have to say here)!  Speaking of the Electoral College, I heard an interesting piece on NPR about the Electoral College — kinda scary how little people know about it!
And speaking of scary, the McCainiacs are getting [...]

 The Time Finder posted information about some great computer shortcuts this morning – along with a link to the NY Times article by David Pogue.  Who knew, for example, that you can use Google like a calculator?  And here’s a cool tip that I found in the “Comments” -

A little less known one I enjoy [...]

This morning I checked BlueHampshire and was pleased to see this piece about the level of desperation in the McSame camp.
I groaned aloud last night when I heard Palin regurgitating that Bill Ayers story yet again.  Despicable and empty ploy … but what I like about it is how it reflects the ongoing disarried and [...]

So, tonight’s the night.  9PM ET.
One of my concerns is that the bar has been set so low for Palin that she’ll look good if she merely manages to string together a series of complete sentences.  The GOP has also laid the “groundwork” for asserting that Gwen Ifill is biased – NOT!  Meanwhile, McCain has [...]

I’m going to be migrating everything from my old computer to my new one in just a wee bit … so am posting somewhat quickly now.  Hopefully you’ll hear from me again. If not, you’ll know that things went badly here …
A bailout agreement has apparently been reached.
I read some excellent debate analysis [...]

This video by the other Sarah is to die for!  (Jimmy Kimmel, what were you thinking????)

And here’s another offering (thanks for this, too, BJE), on the ultimate cruelty of the Palin pick.  It’s a good read — and the links are awesome.  But, my stirrings of sympathy for Palin are quickly quelled by remembering her [...]

Watch Josh Marshall from TPM for a nice look at some details about John McCain’s not-very-good week (and why he’s been backpedaling from little things like debates).  And Palin just continues to amaze …

Here’s the text of a piece of her Katie Couric interview (you can view it at the end of the clip above):

Couric: [...]

While the McCain campaign strives to make Sarah Palin the issue with bogus  controversies, there are plenty of real issues to look at.  Hopefully the press won’t continue to be hoodwinked and will start recognizing the McSmear tactics and burying them back near the Classifieds … where they belong.
Perhaps the biggest issue the McSmears want [...]
