Hillary - 1, Palin - 0

Sen. Hillary Clinton, you know, that female politician who DOES have experience, parades for Democrats, but circumvents questions about that Alaskan librarian gal who is now the talk of the town at New York City's annual Labor Day parade and later during a stop on Staten Island.

"This election is about issues, and that's what's going to matter to people at the end of the day," she told reporters who asked about Gov. Palin at a rally at Wagner College Friday.

Harkening back to the DNC, Clinton did indeed update her famous line of the night. At a labor breakfast in Manhattan she mentioned the Republican VP nom once, "No way, no how, no McCain, no Palin," she said.

One is the loneliest number

Y'all know that Bush problem the McCain camp is trying to ignore this campaign?


Of course you do. The Obama camp has that shtick covered. Well, President Bush is the new scare tactic. And Republicans have begun addressing that by, well, take a look...

Republican National Convention by the numbers:

Bush: 1 mention

Cheney: 0 mentions

Democratic National Convention by the numbers:

Bush: 184 mentions (95 linked to McCain)

Cheney: 20 (19 linked to Bush)


It's kinda sad that it's the Republican's own incumbent that casts a pall over their fete.
