Thursday

So it’s Thursday and I’m off work for a nice four day holiday. I’m hoping to get some work done on the main domain lahdee.com. Goodness knows I’ve been screwing around enough.

It’s not beer any more, but it is just as inane. AP reports

While many are still deciding who should be president, by 52 percent to 45 percent they would prefer having Obama than McCain to their summer cookout, according to an Associated Press-Yahoo News poll released Wednesday.

Yahoo, more bullshit, nonsense crap from AP. Next thing you know we’ll see Caroline Kennedy wearing sensible silver flats as she departs a meeting with the Hispanic caucus.

I remember working for Harry Mitchell’s campaign in the last cycle. On the day before the election I was outside his Tempe office talking with a fellow volunteer. We spoke of our hopes for Harry and to the end of dubya’s years as President. Much to my surprise the lady I was talking with said that she would like to see John McCain as President. As we discussed this it became apparent that her perception of McCain was not rooted in the facts. As I pointed out issues with his record she poo pooed them as products of “the liberal press.” Taegan Goddard reminds us

because his brand was cemented over years, he's been given more of a benefit of the doubt with the public.

This is why we attack John McCain’s record, this is why we question his leadership, to breakdown the myth and open some eyes. Sure it’s a struggle, but John is doing his part with silliness such as saying he knows not of the economy. Keep it up John, it only makes our job easier.
