Post-Debate Polls Offer Few Surprises

September 27th, 2008 · 1 Comment

After last night’s presidential debate in Oxford, Miss., every news web site seems to have a poll, asking who won.  Of course, some are biased, some are not.  In reality, none of the results really surprised me.

Dropped MSNBC Anchors Couldn’t Help Selves

September 8th, 2008 · No Comments

After seeing a photo (above) on the web page of Rush Limbaugh guest host Jason Lewis, I realized dropped MSNBC political anchors Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews probably can’t be blamed for being too biased as they reported from a perch high above delegates at the Republican National Convention.  After all, they were probably just [...]
