ABC interviews Palin's closest friends

Since Alaskan governor Sarah Palin likes to play hide and seek with the press (more hide than seek, I would say), it took a sit-down with her closest friends for ABC to glean any information about the Republican VP nom.

The Elite 6, as they call themselves, actually give a pretty funny-slash-awkward-slash-oblivious interview. Funny because several of them stress they're pro-choice and pontificate about how they don't agree with everything Palin has done, awkward because 3 of the 4 of them won't say they're voting for their friend and oblivious because none of them realize how quickly the press just disbanded their friendship with Palin.

Elisabeth Hasselbeck zings Michelle Obama

The View co-host and Republican cohort Elisabeth Hasselbeck makes her case for Transylvania native, Cindy McCain.



Mmmmkay, do you really want to talk about having something to hide, Hasselbitch?

GOP ticket gives $$$ to Obama campaign!

Inadvertently, that is.

When the band Heart heard their song "Barracuda" being played at the RNC in a rallying promotion of Sarah Palin's old moniker "Sarah Barracuda", they wasted no time in telling McCain no way, no how.

Well, since the McCain camp already obtained and paid for the necessary licenses to use the song, they paid no heed to Heart's request to stop using it.

That's right, in honor of Sarah Palin and to the horror of Heart, the song was blasting through the streets of Lebanon, Ohio this morning at a Republican rally.

Only thing is,  Heart gets headlines and royalties now, and guess who they're donating it to? Yep. Obama.

Let the beat go on!

If she wasn't every teenage boy's wet dream before...


This is not a joke.

You see, I don't see this as an objectifying affront on women of authority everywhere, but rather, a helluva way to engage the apathetic youth of our great nation in politics. If Sarah Palin can't do it, no one can.

Obama on Countdown

Democratic nominee Barack Obama appeared on Keith Olberman's eponymous Countdown last night, in part to discuss the lies running rampant in the Republican campaign, as well as to discuss his response to the GOP ticket's latest ad, seen below.



Although Sen. Obama has Olbermann in his pocket, the interview helped shed some light on just where his campaign will be going. Especially in regards to how vitriolic the Republican campaign has become. Check out the interview of the liberal bedfellows below:
