		<description><![CDATA[Last night an electrified 125,000 or so people gathered in Chicago’s Grant Park to hear Barack Obama give his first speech as President-Elect. Sure, a good portion of the night was spent watching CNN on a giant screen and I couldn’t actually see any part of the stage during the live speech, but this night [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, we’ve hit the ugly phase of this political campaign, I think that means we’re almost at the end. (Or most likely just right back to the next beginning.) There’s less than a month to go before the vote goes down, Barack Obama is pulling ahead with every collapse of the economy, and John McCain’s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Apparently the Republican candidate for Vice President is qualified for office because Sarah Palin world champion caliber when it comes to staring contests. Several times in her recent interview with Charles Gibson she mentioned how when faced with a critical choice she didn’t/hasn’t/wouldn’t/won’t blink. She knows what she’s gonna do and doesn’t hesitate to go [...]]]></description>

To mark the sad anniversary both presidential campaigns will be taking the day off, although we’re sure to hear plenty about their individual [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So I’m kinda stuck on this John McCain character of late, but he keeps providing me with so much to talk about I can’t really help it. The latest is his surprising choice of Alaska governor Sarah Palin to be his running mate. This inexperienced governor has been vaulted onto the national stage after less [...]]]></description>

Despite a number of recent disappointments, I’ve been a big supporter of Obama as the best realistic option in this crazy thing our country calls an election for quite some time. But, I can’t help but be a little [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I read recently about Miller Beer reviving their popular late-80s slogan “tastes great, less filling.” The ad campaigns built around this platitude were very popular, and why shouldn’t they have been, it’s a simple slogan that explains a simple beer and that’s just great for selling low-end beverages.
Unfortunately Republican Presidential candidate John McCain is following [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ah, the presidential race. It’s endless fun with its constant distractions from the real issues facing the country and its focus on style over substance and who can frame whom as what. Election time is months and months away so there’s still plenty of time for more gaffs and blunders. There’s also plenty of time [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the past I’ve said Hillary Clinton should not be forced to end her quest for the Democratic presidential nomination until she is mathematically eliminated from the contest, and I’m sticking by that stance. It’s just that right now I’m not really seeing what she has to gain by staying in this thing.
