1) All political candidates, from time to time, will speak metaphorically, and whether the metaphors are good or bad, elegant or cheesy, I usually understand the message they're trying to get across. Joe Biden, however, has come up with one that I find positively inscrutable. He seems to have invited Americans to a national pillow fight, claiming that Americans want a "sleepover." Now, perhaps this isn't a metaphor at all; maybe Biden intends his suggestion to be taken literally. If so, it's a pretty ambitious project. In fact, the only house that would seem to be big enough to accommodate it is John Edwards' place in North Carolina.
2) Five Feet of Fury believes Tina Fey accidentally made a good point (H/T to Captain Heinrichs).
3) Mac vs. PC (H/T to Don Surber)
4) What's this?!? Jules Crittenden votes Democratic? A good deed, in this case...
Big election update: McCain doesn't have to worry about Ohio; I've got a little operation up there that's going to take care of things.

'I can see Russia from my house'
Seeing evil face-to-face, that's Reality. Not some deliriously verbose Chomsky theory.
Re Ohio - you cunning dratsab, you :-)
BTW Somehow, her international experience with negotiations involving Canada don't count :-(
I loved the SNL sketch; it was equal opportunity humor.
OK Here is an election update from Canadia.
In our local riding, we, the Conservative party, dominated on the arterial signage .. and still do.
Our amateurs got up 100 signs in 24 hours; the paid liberal sign erectors were far less inspired.
However, the knee-dippers (AKA socialist running dogs) have now a candidate and are putting up signs; the evil liberals are still not threatening.
However, this riding is a Liberal shoo-in; been liberal since 1932 I think, or was it 1927?
So, we have our small successes but we are looking for a Conservative majority and, so far, there is little interest amongst the populace. This is a sign of non-discontent amongst the voters; this means they will vote for what they have, or stay home.
The liberal election strategy is being lead by the Liberal leader, Stephan Dion, who is difficult to understand in French, let alone English. He also has a Parisian accent and French citizenship, courtesy his mother. Some dispirited Liberal prominent folks have even wondered, out loud before reporters, that perhaps people have had enough with Yet-Another_Prime-Minister-Friom-Quebec.
BTW Dijon's snobby French accent and education does not endear him to the good ol' Canadian habitant either.
In summation, The Natural Ruling Party is going down in flames and only a supplicant media is keeping their aeroplane aloft. (Google "Liberal aircraft")
