Here’s my Senate prediction. I already did my Presidential election prediction. The colors ARE switched from what the normal media colors, so sorry about that, but that’s the way the website I use does it. The maps are courtesy of Dave Leip’s U.S. Election Atlas, and my most current prediction can always be found here. On to the predictions…

So, today I got an e-mail from MoveOn.org (I signed up for their mailing list months ago for some reason - I don’t even remember why), and they sent me a link to this video: Obama’s Loss Traced To….

Alright, we’re moments away from the beginning of the debate. As always, I’ll be watching CNN, who will have a focus group (undecided voters in Ohio) with a tracking rating of how people like what they’re hearing (broken up by men and women). WordPress just added an option to add polls, so I’ll see if I can get that working after the debate is over and post a poll about who won.

So, I was watching the news last night, and somebody was doing a story about Kansas Senate candidate, Jim Slattery’s, latest TV ad, “Hosed”:

So, today I heard that the Progressive Women’s Alliance of West Michigan was putting out advertisements claiming that Michigan’s Supreme Court is rated worst in the nation, citing a “study by the University of Chicago Law School.” The PWA, as well as Michigan Supreme Court Justice Marilyn Kelly, has come out in opposition to Chief Justice Cliff Taylor, who is up for reelection this year (against Diane Hathaway and Robert Roddis), placing much of the blame on that rating on him.

It’s a good ad. I would’ve liked it better if she’d have done that on her own, instead of going to the McCain campaign to do it, because it looks more forced that way, but it still shows the fact that a lot of Clinton supporters are 1) mad about Obama being the nominee and 2) willing to actually do something about it.

Alright, so as I posted about before, John McCain put out an ad called “Celeb” which shows Paris Hilton and Britney Spears, and compares Barack Obama to them, saying that he’s a celebrity.
Then Paris Hilton responded with the following ad (sorry,

So, there have been stories in the news recently talking about how much race will be an issue in the 2008 election.
We had Barack Obama’s comments in response to McCain’s “Celeb” ad, comparing Obama to Britney Spears and Paris Hilton: “Since they don’t have any new ideas the only strategy they’ve got in this election is to try to scare you about me.

Alright, so tonight I saw Swing Vote. I liked it. Although it had a LOT of swearing (which added some humor at times, but was a little over the top at others), I’d give it a 9 out of 10.
First, we’ll look at how the election could’ve happened (spoiler alert - I eventually get into details, and a few things about the ending). This is not a map they showed in the movie, I made it myself - it’s a believable hypothetical that adds up to the numbers they give in the movie:

Well, I’m sure many of you have heard about John McCain’s latest attack ad, titled “Celeb.”
Before I get into too many details, I’ll give you a chance to watch it:

After airing a commercial saying that he would not take money from oil companies (which doesn’t make much sense, since he LEGALLY CAN’T under the 1907 Tillman Act!), it has come out that he has been taking money from their executives.
Here’s a video of the ad, with a transcript below it:

Yesterday, Governor Bill Richardson (D-NM-Obama) discussed his endorsement for Barack Obama with reporters:
He told reporters that he almost endorsed Clinton, but waited a little longer to see how things played out, and as the infighting increased, Richardson became displeased with the party and the candidates. He told reporters “That upset me” when talking about Clinton’s 3 A.M. ad.

Alright, so last week Hillary Clinton was in Washington, D.C. and was discussing her trip to Bosnia in 1996. She said the following concerning her landing at Tuzla airport: “I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base.”
