Morning Joe
James Cromwell is presently on MSNBC talking about W -- and scaring the piss out of the Morning Joe crew. Chuck Todd and Wee Willie look stunned. Now, I don't think it helped his cred to bring up the...

Open thread for documenting the constant variety of cable news hackery. Tonight! McCain's epic fail campaign is actually good for McCain.

These could very well be home made signs, but if you've ever worked on a campaign before, you'd know that "home made" rally signs are actually created by campaign staffers and volunteers in order to...
The McCain-Liddy Love Affair
Carl Bernstein: In 1998, Liddy gave a fundraiser in his Scottsdale, Arizona home for McCain's senatorial re-election campaign -- the two posed for photographs together; and as recently as May, 2007...
Psych!
So the fake narrative that Drudge floated over the weekend -- that the race was narrowing -- just got its ass kicked today. The Gallup daily is back up to a 10-point margin -- Obama 51, McCain 41...

Regarding the racist far-right and the Republicans who are getting them all charged up, I think we need to underscore how truly goddamn crazy they are. To wit: There's a full transcript of the...
The Clintons in Scranton
I was just thinking about the most chaotic days of the primary and never in a million years did I think we'd see the day when Senator Clinton and President Clinton would be campaigning together for...
The L-word
Anyone mentioning or repeating the L-word gets a verbal smack from me. There are still three weeks to go and ANYTHING can happen. Do ever forget who we're running against here. We can't overestimate...
