It sometimes seemed it would never happen, but it has. The 2012 presidential election is over. The robocalls have stopped. The ads are gone. There are no new polls for pundits to pick apart, no new stump speech sound bites to discuss, no advisers spinning data points. The people have spoken, and they have … Continue reading
Hi there, WordPress pals! I’m back from my travels, and trying to regain some balance after several days of not enough sleep, too much food, and general chaos. I am also finding that my WP stuff is acting up – my Reader is not showing me anything, so when I sat down to catch up … Continue reading
YET ANOTHER UPDATE (10/16): OK, it seems there may be some legal issue here…the page is now back on Facebook, but it is called the Million Puppet March. Must be some Muppet lawyers getting unnerved in some way…still not sure about the Twitter though…will see what I can find if I have time before my … Continue reading
Shhhh….hear that sound? It’s the sound of millions of Democrats exhaling all at once. I’m sure I don’t have to tell anyone here that Vice President Joe Biden got the job done in the VP debate last night – and then some. Paul Ryan was very disciplined, very even-keeled, and very well-prepared. But despite this, … Continue reading
Not a lot of time to hang around the WordPress clubhouse today, folks, but I did want to discuss a new Obama campaign video that I saw this morning. I know most of you have seen it by now yourselves, but here it is just in case: I think this ad is funny, but … Continue reading
We already know about Mitt Romney’s Big Bird problems. But who knew he had it in for Dora the Explorer and iCarly, too? Kid’s TV network Nickelodeon has, for the past several years, produced a special news show about the presidential election. During the past 6 presidential elections, they round up questions and concerns from … Continue reading
Well, I have had a LOT of hits on my previous post about the Million Muppet March. But since that was posted, I have come to find out that there will be a “counter-protest” of sorts held alongside it on the National Mall on November 3rd. I guess some people thought that the Million Muppet … Continue reading
I have to say, I am getting tired of this post-debate debate that is playing out within the Democratic party. On one side, we have the media pundits who, immediately after the end of the first Obama/Romney debate, set upon the president’s performance like vultures on roadkill. MSNBC’s Chris Matthews was the most vocal of … Continue reading
Alright folks – I was supposed to be in bed already, but I just can’t get sleepy tonight. However, for once I’m glad to have insomnia, because I managed to find out about something awesome happening next month, right before the election. Mitt Romney, in his debate performance the other night, made it clear that … Continue reading
It’s late. I mean, it’s LATE. I’ve made it through the pre-game commentary, the post-game analysis, and the debate itself. There was a lot of ground covered in tonight’s face-off between President Obama and Mitt Romney, and there was a lot to process after I finally turned off the TV and sat alone with my … Continue reading
