I don't need to rehash how cynical and condescending the McCain campaign/John McCain is in picking Sarah Palin for VP. She's has no serious public service experience, no academic credentials, no record of showing a thoughtful understanding of the greatest challenges America faces. She's a woman and McCain thinks that's enough to persuade the millions of Hillary Clinton supporters to vote for him.

Well.... on the first day of campaigning yesterday, Palin invoked Hillary Clinton to describe herself. Guess what the McCain rally did? They overwhelmingly booed her!

The New Hampshire Republican Party has quit "with regret" as a co-sponsor of tomorrow night's nationally televised GOP forum on FOX News.

That, from the Union Leader. The reason being Fox's exclusion of radical libertarian Ron Paul from the debate. As TPM notes,

Bear in mind that Fox News is excluding Paul from the debate, despite the absence of any objective criteria that would shut out Paul and still include some of the other people they're inviting. For example, Paul got 10% of the vote in Iowa, while invited candidate Rudy Giuliani took only 4% and is at about the same place as Paul in New Hampshire polls.

I just finished watching the youtube clip up at ThinkProgress and TheNation on the recent CPAC Convention.

Nation journalist Max Blumenthal goes to the CPAC Convention with camera in hand. This short video documentary features Michelle Malkin, a 'black' Republican, Bob Barr, and more... I thoroughly enjoyed it- especially the beginning and end...

Anyone else have video or other accounts of this right wing three day circus?

We knew it was coming. Throughout last year, there were various reports that Fox News had an interest in promoting a conservative version of the Daily Show. Last June, MediaBistro.com blogged that conservative talk show host Laura Ingraham was rumored to be hosting the pilot. The tipster revealing the secret pilot described it as a "terrible rip off the Daily Show" and that the "writers and producers should be embarrassed to show this one to Roger [Ailes]."

On a widely read political website, Alex Zeese, son of third party U.S. Senate candidate Kevin Zeese, advocated a victory for Republican U.S. Senate candidate Michael Steele - citing the extreme right wing views of Steele as a Senator to culminating in a more liberal takeover by Democrats in 2012. This is quite revealing of Zeese's true intentions, and a puzzling look into his odd forecast for the future.

Alex is also a staff member of his father's campaign.

Steele's cut and run

By Lee Fang

September 06, 2006

I had the esteemed privilege to be the first student to speak to Maryland Lt. Gov. Michael Steele as he stepped out of his sport utility vehicle when he arrived at the football game Saturday afternoon. His eyes filled with enthusiasm when he heard my first question: "Will you be the man to clean up Washington corruption if you go to the Senate?" He beamed a smile and answered with a response that sounded almost word for word like what his first ad stated, "stop the lobbyist revolving door ... reform the way contributions are given." "Well," I responded curiously, "why did you accept money from over 120 registered lobbyists in the first quarter alone," in reference to the tens of thousands of dollars Steele has received from lobbyists. Steele paused with a faint gasp... Read More

Wal-Mart Bill Rejected by Courts

Washington Post

A federal judge struck down a Maryland law yesterday that would have effectively forced the nation's largest employer, Wal-Mart Stores, to spend more money on health care for its employees here.
U.S. District Judge J. Frederick Motz ruled that the "Wal-Mart Law," which won overwhelming support in the General Assembly this year, ran afoul of a 32-year-old federal statute intended to protect corporations from having to navigate a patchwork of benefits requirements from state to state.

Here is the link to the final decision.

I wonder how the Ehrlich campaign will spin this. Will Steele triumph this as well? The Post reports the WalMart bill carries a high level of support in Maryland.

The elusive Michael Steele, the Republican Lt. Gov. running for Senate in Maryland, is holding yet another secret fundraiser with a high level Washington insider. Tomorrow Republican Senate majority leader Bill Frist will be holding an unannounced closed-door fundraiser for Steele in Ashton, Maryland (in northern Montgomery County). This event coming after a similar, yet highly publicized event the past weekend with John McCain -- the so called moderate Senator from Arizona.

Last week Steele launched his new video touting himself as an outsider, proclaiming "if you think Washington works just fine, I'm not your candidate." Well, publicly he will dress himself in moderate clothes, but if you follow the money you find otherwise. He is 100% connected with DC insiders, taking money directly from the main gears that keep the Republican political machine moving. Steele has held a secret capitol hill fundraiser with Karl Rove, a closed door fundraiser with Cheney in April, and pretended to snub Bush by avoiding him in Baltimore in May.
