Can McCain Match Obama Mag Blitz?
By Tommy Christopher - Politics DailyPolitico's Michael Calderone observed the periodical overkill, and pointed me at this great, satirical cover and story from The Onion: WASHINGTON-According to a poll released Monday by Teen Zogby!, both Barack Obama's approval and dreaminess ratings among slumber party–attending tweens have risen to 82 percent following last week's publication of the Tiger Beat cover pictorial "Hangin' With Barack!" Teen Zogby! I love it. Their margin of error is +/- W.E. (What-Evurrr!) The whole thing made me wonder if there was really an imbalance here, so I looked to see if there were a comparable ...

Dems Try to Oust Delegate for McCain
By Liza Porteus Viana - Politics DailyThere's a Democratic National Convention delegate from Wisconsin who has her fellow Dems in a tizzy. Debra Bartoshevich, who pledged to back Hillary Rodham Clinton, is defending herself from an attempt by Wisconsin Democrats to take away her credentials because of her past statement that she would vote for John McCain if Clinton wasn't the nominee. She recently was quoted in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel as saying she would vote for the McCain in November if the Democratic Party nominated Barack Obama."Keeping national delegate status is very important to me," Bartoshevich told the AP. "I ...
And, Unity In: Five..Four..Three...
By Tommy Christopher - Politics DailyUpdate: I spoke with a well-placed source in Hillary Clinton's campaign, who told me a couple of interesting things. He said Obama will definitely not be picking a VP just to win a state, and that the short list now includes Hillary, Joe Biden, Evan Bayh, and maybe Chuck Hagel. I've got a good feeling about this.He also said, as I have, that Obama is doing so surprisingly well against McCain that he can pretty much pick his own ticket, but that the longer the choice takes, the better it is for Hillary. Also, here's video of Bayh telling Andrea Mitchell today that he would say yes if asked to ...
Daniel and Noah, Not Alex
By Caleb Howe - Politics DailyLast week, MoveOn debuted a general election ad titled "Not Alex," in which a young liberal mother is tearfully terrified her toddler might one day be conscripted into the Hundred Years War by the still-surviving head of John McCain, Dictator for Life of the post Obamalyptic nightmare of the future. OK, that might be a slight exaggeration. Suffice it to say, the worried mom seems a little confused about a number of facts. Hot Air's Allahpundit said it best: "... mom here hasn't yet grasped that (a) President McCain won't be setting Iraq policy for the next 18 years, let alone the next ...
Fanning the Flames of Faith
By Justin Paulette - Politics DailyBarack Obama has been overtly religious during the primary season, speaking openly of his Christian faith and the strong influence which it exerts over his actions. In small part, such professions were coerced via persistent e-mail traffic contending that Obama was a Muslim pen-pal of Bin-Ladin. Yet the unforced tenor and persistent legacy of Obama's religious statements defy a mere reactionary explanation, seeming rather to reflect a sincere conviction. It is this sincerity of belief which caused Obama such vulnerability in the Rev. Wright scandal. If Obama struck the public as disinterested ...
