44 a nice solid number
el
The wingnut's math: Lessee.. 44 = 4+4 = 8 which is 6 minus two which stands for the double 4 and then 4x4 is 16 which is 6+6+4 so you take away the other 4 because it belongs to 44 and you get...

He has earned our support and confidence, and the time is now to make him Commander In Chief.
I'm delighted to support John McCain, and I'm pleased that he has chosen a running mate with executive talent, toughness, and common sense: our next Vice President, Governor Sarah Palin. (Applause.)

Ms. Onyango lived in public housing in Boston. On Friday, The A P reported that she was in the country illegally and that her case had led to an unusual nationwide directive from Immigration and Customs requiring that any deportations before Tuesday’s election be approved at least at the level of regional directors.
A White House spokesman said the White House had no involvement in the matter.
Ms. Onyango lives in a disabled-access apartment and worked as a volunteer resident health advocate for the Boston Housing Authority before stopping recently for physical therapy following back surgery.

(CNN) -- The daughter of Sen. Dick Durbin died Saturday from a congenital heart condition, the Illinois Democrat's office said.
Sen. Dick Durbin and family mourned the loss of daughter Chris on Saturday.
"Chris Durbin, 40, fought a heroic lifelong battle with heart disease and our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Durbin family," said Durbin's spokesman, Joe Shoemaker.
Chris Durbin worked for 16 years for the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Washington.
Survivors include her husband, Marty Johnson, and son, Alex.
Her death comes as Dick Durbin, the second-ranking Democrat in the Senate, seeks a third term in Tuesday's general election.
Funeral arrangements for his daughter were not immediately announced.

Nixon actually served in the Navy, I believe primarily by playing poker... Cheney, on the other hand, sorta let his opportunity slide. &, Nixon had the guts/will/craziness to want to be up front. Cheney's like the wizard of Oz, except that not only is he a bad wizard he is a bad man as well.

Early Voting Numbers
9 percent of voters have already cast ballots:
Their preference: Barack Obama over John McCain, by 60-39 percent.
That leaves 91 percent yet to vote, but more are coming. A total of 34 percent of likely voters intend to vote early, including those who’ve already done so and those who say they will in the next week. This overall early voting group favors Obama over McCain by 59-39 percent, essentially the same as it is among those who’ve gotten it done already.

Still AWOL. No explanation. Not even a gesture, which suggests to me that some in the McCain camp realize they'd rather release nothing than be implicated in anything that might hurt them after the election. Only ABC News' Kate Snow seems to care. Only this blog has really pursued this story for two long months. For the record, I find the idea that a vice-presidential candidate refuses to either give a press conference or release full medial records as a dreadful precedent for transparency. Obama and Biden and McCain have been pathetic as well. But no one has been as secretive as Palin and no one else has similar strangeness in her medical history. Presumably the records are there and could have been released easily two months ago. Unless there really was no vetting at all and the McCain camp is now covering up its own incompetence as well as preparing to throw her under the bus in a few days' time.

I heard him [McCain] say that when the White House phone rings at the dread 3 o’clock in the morning, you don’t want someone picking it up who has to take time to “think and analyze the situation, but someone who will act.” This, coming from a man with the “thinking and analyzing” traits of a snapping turtle cannot help but bring the Cuban missile crisis to mind — and what the world might be today had the Arizona senior been in charge. If it (the world) would even be at all.

POLK CITY, Florida (CNN) — At a boisterous Sarah Palin rally in Polk City, Florida on Saturday afternoon, one name was surprisingly absent from the campaign décor — John McCain’s.
Watch: Palin campaigns in Polk City, FL Saturday
Looking around the Fantasy of Flight aircraft hangar where the rally took place, one could see all the usual reminders that it was a pro-McCain event. There were two large “Country First” banners hung on the walls along with four enormous American flags meant to conjure the campaign’s underlying patriotic theme. Many of the men and women in the audience wore McCain hats and t-shirts.
But on closer inspection, the GOP nominee’s name was literally nowhere to be found on any of the official campaign signage distributed to supporters at the event.
Members of the audience proudly waved “Country First” placards as Palin delivered her stump speech. Those signs were paid for by the Republican National Committee.
The other sign handed out to supporters read “Florida is Palin Country,” but those signs were neither paid for by the Republican National Committee nor the McCain campaign. In small print, the signs were stamped with the line “Paid for and authorized by Putnam for Congress" — as in, the re-election campaign of Florida congressman Adam Putnam, whose district skirts Polk City.
In fact, Putnam’s name was considerably more prominent than was McCain’s — his campaign had placed a number of large “Putnam for Congress” banners around the event site.

PUEBLO, COL.--Hooking up with his wife, Michelle and daughters, Barack Obama on a gorgeous Saturday afternoon may have sent a lightening bolt to cable talk show bookers: "Stay off the cable news," he said at a rally in the city.
[...]
"The job of an elected official -- whether it's a President or a council member -- is to solve problems, deliver for the people, don't spend all your time bickering, stay off the cable news shows. You know, and I watch sometime those shows, and I realize, you know, you're arguing about the past, we need to be talking about the future."

She's working the polls, a bit too unsteady to canvass, but is bringing us food tomorrow. Random things today: 4 pizzas, 4 dozen oatmeal cookies with butterscotch chips, apples. Hamburger stew and veggie lasagne yesterday was tops, though.

I am willing to bet this is meth related.
One night I came home drunk (I was still living at home at the time, going to college) and I was having trouble getting my keys in the lock. When I finally got the door open my dad was standing there with a pistol pointed in my face. He was going, "I thought someone was breaking in!"
I told him, "How many crooks use keys?"

Evening all. Is it just me, are is it the case that all the states where people are standing in line for hours to vote early have Republican governors? It happened today in Indiana. Local TV in Louisville says across the river people waited up to five hours to vote.
That they stayed in line for that long says something about the interest level in this election, I suppose. But it may also say something about Republican efforts at supressing the vote.

No, I'm serious. (Rummages for citation.) Ah, here:
"Some even resorted to the form of witnessing called 'going naked for a sign.' The ancient prophets Samuel and Isaiah had both prophesized in a naked state. The Quaker William Simpson had set a famous example of this witness in England. Others followed his lead, so that one publication claimed "In all great towns, Quakers go naked on market days through the town."
Our Puritan forbears were not amused.

Howard Fineman of all people made a terrific point the other night on Keith's show. Said that the Obama campaign has changed the way ground games have operated -- rather than funneling new people back to Dem HQ, they've spread the word and recruited volunteers (millions of them) by word of mouth, through the internet and over the back fence. It's been remarkable, really, when you consider the number of small donors and the level of involvement this year. Of course, if we don't finish the game Tuesday it'll be all for naught.

According to the CBS poll, for all likely voters (that includes those who've already voted plus likelies) it's Obama 54%, McCain 41%.
Among those who've already voted, it's Obama 57%, McCain 38%. And that number is not inconsistent with numbers coming out of a lot of the early voting states.
It will be so good to have someone in office with more than a "c" grade point average or someone that graduated at the bottom of his class.
A president that we can relate to on a higher level than "a guy we can have a beer with".
I would love to see him change the course of this nation. But for that to happen we will have to support him as much after his election as before the election.
I keep thinking that it was only around a third of the populace that wanted to seperate from england, way back when. We don't have to convince everyone we have the right answer we just need to support the ones the ones that do and are willing to work for it. It can happen. It's happened before.

But the race is tightening. Joe Scar told me people have been praying to he Baby Jebus and McCain is gonna be Prez come Wed Morning.
Did Baby Jebus also miracle that dead intern's ass into his office as well?

On Friday I was sitting on the opposite side of a very thin wall from a couple of geniuses who were worried about the fate of the country because they were sure that Obama wouldn't be able to get a security clearance.

You bet. Too use a word that's probably been much-overused since the Powell endorsement, this can be a transformational moment in the nation's history. It's an exciting time to be alive, though the future can seem depressively daunting. We can all take solace in having intelligence and grace back in the White House once we help Sen. Obama deliver this victory. Hot damn; I'm gonna set off fireworks I bought nine years ago when Mr. Gore was running.

I recall reading that when the Revolutionary War was concluded, quite a few folks fled the country, fearing that radicals had taken over.
Maybe that'll happen this time...but anyway, to change the subject completely...did we ever finish that border fence?

Apprentice to Darth Holden
The little details, distracting people from the big picture, have worked so well for so long that they can't comprehend the fact that the tactic doesn't work any more. Gore's sighs, Edwards' haircut; all of here know the story.
What puzzles me is why the small-item-as-distraction tactic stopped working. Is it the historic Republican fubar (the wars, the financial crisis, either of those separately)? Or is it that the blogs provided a dissenting voice to the Republican owned legacy media?
