Has Sarah Palin donated her $150,000+ of RNC and Republican donor paid campaign clothes to charity yet?
A New New Deal
Progressive ideas worked under FDR in the 1930s. Progressive ideas will work again under President Barack Hussein Obama. It’s time we made sure progressive solutions get passed under an Obama administration, and quickly.
Still Processing the Obama Victory
I haven’t written about Obama’s win (other than yesterday’s Benigni snark) because I’m honestly still trying to process the results.
George W. Bush was selected as President when I was in my first term of my freshman year of college. My entire professional life, both in the political and advocacy worlds, has been with Bush as President. Hell, I was 9 when Bill Clinton was elected to his first term. Things have changed in a big way and I’m just not ready to say what I think it all means.
The one thought that I can’t get out of my head, nor fail to smile when I think about it is this: We elected Barack Hussein Obama President of the United States of America.
I’ll circle back when I have finished processing this development.
Deep Thought
As great as Obama’s victory speech was, wouldn’t it have been better if he channeled Robert Benigni in it?
Struggling for Praise
Matt Yglesias, evaluating whether George W. Bush is the worst President in US history, has to dig pretty damn deep to find some exculpatory evidence for Bush.
I think an issue like asking whether or not George W. Bush is the worst president we’ve ever had gets a little too imponderable considering the historical issues. I mean, say what you will about Bush, but unlike many American presidents he didn’t believe in slavery.
Let’s see how well that point in Bush’s favor plays out with historians.

Seeing Adam Nagourney on my tv, I realized how great it is that he has been pretty much irrelevant in the general election.

I’ve been incredibly confident in the outcome of the presidential election. At some point today I’m going to get very nervous.

When Obama Wins
Election Day Twitter Comparisons
This is as good a microcosm of the campaigns run by Barack Obama and John McCain. On election day, the Obama twitter account asks people to vote and the McCain twitter account links to a week old blog post attacking Chris Matthews for being critical of Sarah Palin.
