Campaign phone calls and such

nobody@vox.com(Chez Michelle) — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 17:19:14 +0000

No thank you. Really. It's okay. I don't want to know what John McCain can do for me. And I don't want to hear in a screechingly high volume that you support McCain or Obama (did you check the volume control before recording? Please do). Why...

Is Joe the Plumber

nobody@vox.com(Artzy Carmen) — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 02:14:16 +0000

Running for president? I’m confused, how did this debate become about Joe the Plumber? If he's making over $250,000 a year, then I'm happy John is concerned about him, but I'm not. Joe the Plumber, if you're reading this... blah! I'd like to ...

Some Ideas We Should Focus on in Politics

nobody@vox.com(Alethinos Paradoxos) — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 20:37:01 +0000

Here are some ideas that have helped shape my ideas on the nation, politics, presidents, vice-presidents, and candidates. These are all quotes from a rather informed authority on such matters matters. I hope we can all ponder these ideas and s...

A quick 4 minute video of Hillary Clinton, President Clinton, the next Vice President Senator Biden, and his wife Jill Biden at a "Change We Need" rally for the Obama campaign. Hillary has now made over 50 campaign stops for the Obama campaign. ...

Seriously?

What grade are we in? This billboard is up in Missouri. I try to stay away from discussing politics, but I don't remember any election being this incredibly....brutal. The attacks on Obama are so ludicrous. I just don't understand how so man...

21st Century politics at work.

nobody@vox.com(TruthTeller998) — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 16:59:48 +0000

I ran across this on gigaom. The Obama campaign has paid for in-game adverstising in Burnout Paradise. I think it's a smart buy. It certainly doesn't hurt. Confirmed: Obama Is Campaigning on Xbox 360! Wagner James Au, Monday, October 13, 2008 ...

The way I see it

Not a real billboard, but it could be!

nobody@vox.com(Jack Yan) — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 09:01:11 +0000

I was totally stoked when Dan Gordon took a comment I made and turned it into a fictional election billboard on his blog. (Dan, please let me know if you prefer just the link and not the image.) Maybe I should note ‘Authorized by Tom Dowie, 1...

A little late for McCain, but Karl Rove hits on branding techniques

nobody@vox.com(Jack Yan) — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 08:18:49 +0000

[Cross-posted] I was reading Karl Rove’s commentary on Sarah Palin today and he hit upon a few things I agree with (you read that correctly). McCain–Palin must deepen those doubts by pounding away on questions about Obama’s character, judgment an...

Number Two ran Dr Evil’s empire when he was frozen

nobody@vox.com(Jack Yan) — Sun, 12 Oct 2008 09:28:17 +0000

Just after I commented on another blog that Republicans were generally more civilized when arguing for their candidate, I hear that some have chanted death threats against Sen. Obama. Way to go. (I am being sarcastic.) And now, there’s news fro...

Political Sharks in Bloody Waters

nobody@vox.com(Alethinos Paradoxos) — Sun, 12 Oct 2008 04:20:44 +0000

I was wondering how long this was going to take. Rep. John Lewis (a Democrat from Georgia) pulled the race card on the tone of the McCain campaign this week. This normally would anger me as much as the tone of the McCain camps past two weeks ...

When Opportunity Knocks…

nobody@vox.com(beesquare) — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 14:20:35 +0000

As a Canadian in the midst of our own national election, I can only WISH we had such a contender as you have in the candidacy of Barack Obama. From my vantage point, the U.S. stands on the precipice of a golden opportunity - to elect a president ...

Why, I Can Tell You Why!

nobody@vox.com(Alethinos Paradoxos) — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 06:57:48 +0000

I have just watched footage on several channels of the McCain campaign trail with both angry Republican voters and angry speeches about forcing the media to discuss the items that the McCain camp is talking about. There was also angry discussion...
