Has McCain just given up on courting independent voters? This new "real America" talking point only appeals to the egos of his base on the far right. Is the campaign so desperate that they're now worried about them as well? I can't wait for this election to end so I can stop hearing about a new sleazy campaign tactic each week. Having Palin conduct the attacks does nothing but make McCain look too weak to do it himself. McCain has neither the dignity nor the integrity necessary to be President.

I promise I will return to some substantive and original content once my husband returns from his trip to Minnesota, and I don't have to run after the kids 24/7. However, it is possible that you may be subjected to pictures of exotic things from the trip like colored leaves, hills, and possibly snowmen.
In the meantime, YouTube and random Twitter-following allow me to find amusing things like this:

I'm just going to come right out and say I've voted Libertarian since my first election. I was all set to vote for Ron Paul this time around, when the LP reminded me that Paul's technically a Republican by nominating Bob Barr. I'm not in total agreement with Ron Paul on every issue, but I know him, I like him, and I'm a little too lazy to get to know this Bob Barr character this late in the game.
Do any liberty-minded bloggers have opinions on either one? One of these two will be my choice. I've never bought or understood the "wasted vote" argument. I'm not fond of either McCain's or Obama's policies, but McCain's campaign is looking sleazier and more insincere with each passing day. I'll be happy enough as long as McCain stays out of the White House.
So for whom are libertarians in the Rio Grande Valley voting?
