Transcript: You know, I was looking at the Sturgis schedule, and noticed that you have a beauty pageant, and so I encourage Cindy to compete. [Laughter, cheers, applause, wolf whistles.] I told- I told her, with a little luck, she could be the only woman ever to serve as both the First Lady and...

Call it a hunch, but I don’t John McCain’s remarks at a biker rally in Sturgis, South Dakota, yesterday are going to help him win over women voters. McCain felt so comfortable at the event that he even volunteered his wife for the rally’s traditional beauty pageant, an infamously debauched event that’s been known to feature [...]

When I was 15 I hitchhiked from Brooklyn to L.A. I had quite a bit of trouble at the YMCA in Youngstown and couldn't get out of Ohio until I met this sailor named Howard who was driving a brand new Cadillac from Philly to L.A. for yet a third Howard. The thing that stands out the most of our drive across the country was how we were tooling down Route 66 on the way to Amarillo when he told me that he...

Speaking of creepy robot ladies... Cindy McCain joined her husband at the Sturgis bike really in South Dakota yesterday. During his speech, John McCain pimped out his wife by encouraging her to take part in the rally's beauty pageant. It's not so much as a beauty pageant as it is a group of biker chicks dancing on bars and taking off their tops and bottoms. I'm surprised he didn't turn to Cindy and...

During last week’s McCain ad blitz, he portrayed Barack Obama as a puffed-up dandy who preens like a mindless celebrity for the camera, but who offers little time for the brave men and women in uniform. It was a week of character attacks. The attacks may have nudged the polls a bit. More importantly, they defined the narrative of the week: John McCain is making this election about Barack Obama’s character....

Funny how memes are created in the media. It's mostly the right-wing memes that seem to stick in that so-called liberal media. Even the progressive/liberal blogs spend much of their time refuting the right-wing memes instead of making up new ones and on the whole that helps the memes to stick more. Sad, is it not? Also the reason why today's topics are whether Obama is too arrogant or too inexperienced...

Also known as the “Buffalo Chip Girl Contest.” Yesterday evening John McCain took part in the Sturgis Rally 2008 at Buffalo Chip in South Dakota, an annual tribute to veterans.

Barack Obama defends himself from Republican stupidity: Now two points, one, they know they're lying about what my energy plan is, but the other thing is they're making fun of a step that every expert says would absolutely reduce our oil consumption by 3 to 4 percent. It’s like these guys take pride in being ignorant. The back story. Obama rolled out a comprehensive energy plan. It's smart, and it'll...
