Everything you ever wanted to know about politicians, strategists, and journalists roles in systematically destroying American politics can be seen in this lipstick nonsense.
We are truly idiots. Most important election ever? Yawn.

Tom Brady is out for the season after a first game injury.
What if Brett Favre had stayed retired for a few more weeks?

As I mentioned earlier, I felt like Team Obama made a big mistake by going with the imagery and vibe of the big outdoor stadium show.
The Republicans have come back with a barely produced, soundtrack-free rebuttal. And Sarah Palin (along with Rudy) repeatedly attacked the image that Obama has created for himself.
This was a clear and gaping hole into which the Dems all but invited the GOP to fire missiles. Our guy in a six by four cell serving America, your guy receiving rockstar adulation for a great speech.
There’s a decent chance that the RNC participants went too far and fired too many shots through that hole. There’s less decent chance (tho we can hope) that Americans are tired of these substance-free hatchet jobs and will instead opt for Obama newish brand of interaction. But, whatever the shakeout, there was no reason that the Dems should have made this mistake and left themselves vulnerable.

The DNC homepage makes no mention of John McCain. The RNC page has a ton of attacks on Obama and Biden.
Interesting.
As weird as we all thought the Palin pick seemed, it turns out it was a whole lot weirder.
And we’re only a couple days into this mess.
Most random decision in the recent history of American politics (other than America’s decision to give W a second term).
