Will Google take a hit from the sub-prime mortgage meltdown? The company thinks it can with its highly-targeted text ads being so innovative and effective. Some Wall Streeters think otherwise:
Granted, with a $174.8 billion market cap that dwarfs the GDP of many sovereign nations, Google might think it mirrors the U.S. economy. But that doesn’t […]
In the almost eight years I worked in a book store I saw many authors come in to visit. Most of the time they were in town for other events but came by my store to autograph whatever stock we had. Other times they came for a book reading. In no instance of any author […]
This election cycle the GOP will have to be nimble, smart, and creative. Since last year’s Congressional elections, political momentum has been with the Democrats. That’s resulted in a fundraising edge. News from Marc Ambinder only adds to the Republicans’ problems:
Later today, the AFL-CIO will announce that its executive board approved a $53 million budget […]

The Greenback is dead. I don’t mean it like a paleolibertarian who thinks American went to hell with the founding of the Federal Reserve. I mean that our currency is no longer green or attractive. The march towards the dollar looking like the euro continues.
The U.S. Bureau of Engraving and Printing announced the new bill […]

Matt Stoller ain’t liking Sen. Obama’s audacity:
Obama didn’t take a vote on the Moveon condemnation, but an hour earlier he voted for the Boxer amendment.
What a sad spectacle of a politician.
In his own self-importance he uses a Dante reference. Heady.

Patrick Ruffini posted that the fundraising push for Lt. Col. Jim Ogonowski’s quest for Congress has started off with $1227 from 27 donors. That’s a nice start. Ogonowski is way behind money-wise but within striking distance of his Democratic opponent. A strong push from the right side of the blogosphere could pull off an upset […]
Floyd Landis lost his battle seeking to beat charges he doped to win the 2006 Tour de France:
The panel’s 2-1 decision against him leaves Landis with one final chance to save himself from consequences that have now become reality. He could appeal his case to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, and that decision would […]
Sen. Barack Obama avoided voting to condemn MoveOn.org’s attack on Gen. Petraeus:
At the same time, however, Obama was indeed present for the vote this morning that came just moments before the MoveOn one. He voted for the Boxer measure condemning the attack on Petraeus and all other members of the military.
MSNBC reports Obama canceled […]
Every Democratic Presidential candidate has said they’ll pay for their pet program (health care, middle class tax cuts) by raising taxes on the rich. (They’ve gotten away saying they’ll let the Bush tax cuts expire, but it’s a tax hike plain and simple.) The problem is no one knows how much money soaking the rich […]
Kossack, lurxst, has had enough of tip-toeing around. He flat-out doesn’t support the troops:
I am sorry but supporting the troops means supporting this illegal war.
I’m not sure how sorry lurxst really is, but that’s neither here nor there. What’s interesting is this paragraph:
Until we have another draft, this is a volunteer armed services. I am […]

A Republican could actually win a Congressional seat in Massachusetts. Yes, really! Lt. Col. Jim Ogonowski (Ret.) is within 10 points of Niki Tsongas, the widow of Paul Tsongas. Rightroots is testing its online muscle by focusing on this special election. Give what you can, and let’s see if we can this veteran into Congress.
