Robert Reich has two interesting new articles in his blog that you should read. The first one is an analysis of why Romney is losing the election. The conservatives are already trying to spin this as Romney’s fault. He is a bad politician running a poor campaign, and most of all, he isn’t conservative enough. […]
Sarah Silverman on Voter Suppression Laws. Caution, contains quite a few obscenities.
Romney once said that he always pays the taxes that the law requires — no more, no less — and “if I had paid more [taxes] than are legally due I don’t think I’d be qualified to become president.” But in his newly released tax returns, Romney deducted only $2.25 million of his $4 million […]
© Mike Stanfill After Citizens United opened the floodgates for political money, will Romney’s presidential campaign go down in history as proving that you can’t buy any election just by throwing unlimited amounts of money at it?

“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 […]
Saturday Night Live asks a very important question, and they want answers!
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 […]
“A new poll shows that after the Democratic National Convention, President Obama got a four-point bounce in the polls, which means that’s he’s now only five points behind Bill Clinton.” – Seth Meyers “Obama joked this week that Bill Clinton, who has been campaigning for him, should be appointed to the role of ‘Secretary of […]
As I’m sure all of my readers are aware, today is International Talk Like a Pirate Day. How is this political? Because the Obama campaign just tweeted “Arrr you in?” with this photo:
The media has been abuzz with the story of the leaked video of Romney at a fundraiser, writing off 47% of the US population as tax-dodging, government-dependent parasites whom he has no chance of convincing to not vote for Obama.
