Tête-à-Tête-Tête

After watching John McCain and Barack Obama make their respective cases on Democratic nomination night, my thinking is somewhat changed.
First, I realize for the first time that Republicans - the hard core, conservative Republicans who have trouble imagining anything worse than a Democratic Presidency - must be feeling now much the same way I was [...]

Didn’t you learn anything from the backlash from the RNC ad against Harold Ford?

(here, until it scrolls on down the page.)
I’m not sure what this is supposed to mean… American voters are bimbos? Daisy Duke has a crush on Barak Obama? Or what?
… But, what makes them think that it won’t open them up [...]
