Can Rove do it again?
Can Karl Rove make the entire mid-term election be about John Kerry (the proven war veteran) v. George Bush (the proven AWOL slacker) again? And will the country club bully again defeat the warrior? Say it ain't so, America.Trick or treat
Do you get pro trick-or-treaters in your neighborhood? Young teens with bulging backpacks full of candy who've been windsprinting through 'hood after 'hood to scoop up candy with all the efficiency of a Russian trawler? We had them. Hard-looking kids disappointed at getting only three Reese's Peanut Butter Cups each. We had our killer French bulldog, Fifi, at the ready to love any malefactors to death.
Oh well.
In honor of Halloween, a two-day-early dose of Lancasterian genius in his annual spooky entry. What if Dick Cheney came to YOUR door with a shotgun?
Huck on the run
Governor Mike Huckabee continues to get maximum mileage from his weight-loss and marathon running.The December 2006 issue of Runner's World magazine lists Huckabee in its cover article on The Heroes Issue: The Most Inspiring Runners of 2006.
On Page 71 Huckabee is shown in running gear outside the Governor's Mansion. The feature lists the heroes as The Mentor, The Survivor, The Inspiration, etc. Huckabee is listed as The Leader. The accompanying text mentions his ongoing run for the 2008 presidency.
Hypocrisypalooza
On the jump, read all about the Huckahutch barnstorming tour to repeal the sales tax on groceries. The current governor, The Huckster, had 10 years to do it and never hit a lick in that direction. The would-be governor, A$a, started his campaign saying it wasn't on his agenda. Another tax sop for fat-cut manufacturers was his top priority. But when Mike Beebe got a little traction with the issue, A$a became a convert. For rank opportunism, this does beat all.The Halter bandwagon?
Bill Halter issues a news release today announcing endorsements from 75 state legislators. Release on the jump. (Doesn't that mean 24 Democratic legislators did NOT endorse him?)Wal-Mart to Franken: drop dead
Media Matters reports on an internal ABC Radio memo that indicates a roster of high-powered national advertisers, including Wal-Mart, have made it clear that their advertising should never appear on Air America programming. We can tell you from personal experience with these bullies: you toe their line or they pay you back in the only language they know -- money.
