Hillary/McCain Switchers: Political Chupacabras?
By Tommy Christopher - Politics DailyJohn Dickerson at Slate breaks down the myth, versus the reality, of the influence that embittered Hillary Clinton supporters will actually have in this election. He likens it to a "Snipe Hunt," but I thought "Chupacabra" sounded funnier, and those have actually been found. We're going on a snipe hunt. The quarry: women who supported Hillary and, now that she's lost, will leave the Democrats to vote for McCain. Unlike a true snipe hunt, where you never find your prey, these politically prized voters can be found. In fact, they seem to be everywhere. Hillary supporters leave angry e-mails in my ...
2008 Myths!
By Greg McNeilly - Politics DailyAlong with America's first full 2-year non-stop Presidential campaign has come \pundits who fill the air and churn their perspective regardless of relevance or reality. (And of course, feel free to make the same claim against this post!) In an effort to clear the air on some nonsense, here are my dispelled 2008 myths (in no particular order).

It is tempting to think of my source material as an embarrassment of riches, and it is an embarrassment, but the sheer volume makes the job more difficult, not less. Luckily, I have at least until March 5 to get through some of these. I'd like to save the "Coke Classic", I-Love-the-90's ...
The Worst You Can Say About: Barack Obama
By Denise Williams - Politics DailyIn the next part of our series, The Worst You Can Say About... I'll be looking at some of the myths going around the intertubes about Barack Obama. (Check out the first part in the series by Jay Allbritton, who looks at what people are saying about John McCain.) Some of our most vocal commenters here on Political Machine are very familiar with the false stories circulating about Obama. They have been most kind sharing those lies with all of us in the comment sections of our posts. Thanks to all of those who have provided me with links and insight into these unfounded rumors. The most ...
