Former John Edwards aide to write a tell all book.
The New York Times is reporting that a former closest aide to former Senator John Edwards who once claimed to be the father of the baby carried by Mr. Edwards' mistress, Rielle Hunter, has signed a book deal in which he will reveal that the whole thing was done on the urging of the former presidential candidate in exchange of him being taking care of for life.
If I guessed correct, the book title will be: " Hoops, I almost became your daddy."

Wow! Here is someone running for the highest office in the land and who is unaware of his own aunt living here illegally; how in the world would he be able to rein in 22 millions more illegals living here.

Obama's 30 minutes TV Ad drew huge numbers.
The results of senator Obama's last week seven networks TV ad buy are in, and they were huge. According to Nielsen Media Research, more than 33 million have watched the ad or part of it. That is more that the number of people who watched the World Series that immediately followed, or the number who watched last season finale of American Idol.
Given these numbers, thanks God that the elections are held before the Super Bowl otherwise Obama would have bought the entire half time show.

McCain intensifying attacks on Obama.
Over the weekend, john McCain's campaign has made no secret that they are going to intensify the personal attacks against Barack Obama with less than a month till the elections. Speaking to the Press this weekend, a senior Republican operative said: "there's no question that we have to change the subject here."
The subject in question here being the economy and how to fix it.
That should help draw a contrast between the Bush administration and a potential McCain's. If faced with issues he does not like, he will just change the subject.

Sarah Pailin comes up short .
Watch CBS Videos Online
In an interview with Sarah Pailin the Republican VP candidate, Catie Couric asked her to cite an example of John McCain pushing for more federal regulations to prevent crisis like the one on Wall Street right now. She cited one, and when reminded to come up with another one given the fact that McCain has been a senator for 26 years, she could not. But to her credit, she promised Catie Couric that she will look for more and when she finds any, she will bring it to her.
Like a rookie who skipped training camp, it seems like she is not given yet all the plays in the playbook.

Obama campaign denied reports that he sent a team in Alaska to look for any dirt that may compromise Sarah Pailin, the Republican VP.
You got to believe that; his campaign has been too busy trying to dig him out the dirt McCain has been throwing at him the past two weeks.

Hugo Chavez creates new insult for his opponents.
What is the best use for Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez's time ? To come up with a new insult to describe his opponents. He lately devised the term "pitiyanquis" to mock everyone standing on his way, from political opponents, members of the elite class to businessmen from neighboring countries. And according to Spanish-language dictionaries, "pitiyanqui" is a mix of the French word "petit" or little with "yanqui" or someone who imitates Americans.
Waisting no time, today Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama started calling his opponent John McMcain, "pitiBush".

Joe Biden believes life begins at conception.
Straying from his party stance on abortion and embracing his Catholic faith, Democratic VP nominee Joe Biden declared on "Meet the Press" on Sunday that he believes life begins at conception.
Moments later on ABC "This Week", Democratic nominee Barack Obama clarified his position on the issue by saying: "I don't presume to be able to answer these kinds of theological questions."
Who knew that Joe Biden would not only be Obama's tutor on foreign affairs but his spiritual spokesman too ?

Republicans close Convention.
After three days of stones throwing and tongue lashing at the media, the Democrats, communities organizers and Obama, the Republican National Convention finally came to a close yesterday with high expectations.
But to watch and listen to all the political analysts fanning over the McCain's VP pick, it seems like the post convention bounce went to Sarah Pailin.

Daddy Yankee endorses McCain.
Porto Rico native and reggaeton star Daddy Yankee has endorsed Senator John McCain early this week during an event at a High School in Phoenix Arizona.
It is said that McCain was mostly impressed by Daddy Yankee smash hit from a few years ago, "Gasolina".
He took the song title literally and thinks that it fits nicely with his call for more drilling. Little that he knows, the song refers to another kind of drilling.
Has he really understood the true meaning of the song, I think McCain would have sought the endorsement of Grandaddy Yankee instead.
