Politico’s Jonathan Martin reports on Limbaugh’s latest display of bigotry:
Rush Limbaugh said Colin Powell’s decision to get behind Barack Obama appeared to be very much tied to Obama’s status as the first African-American with a chance to become president.
“Secretary Powell says his endorsement is not about race,” Limbaugh wrote in an e-mail. “OK, fine. I am now researching his past […]

Sarah Palin not greeted as liberator at hockey game in Philly
October 13th, 2008 · 1 Comment
Whichever McCain staffer thought up the idea of sending Sarah Palin to a hockey game in Philly to drop the puck should be fired. No questions asked, no excuses.
This might have been the easiest call in sports/politics history. I mean, in the middle of a heated campaign, you’re sending a Republican with sky-high […]

Why Mitt Romney will never be president (Super Bowl edition)
February 4th, 2008 · 1 Comment
Focus on the hat. This guy was the governor of Massachusetts for four years and doesn’t have the balls to wear a Patriots hat during the Super Bowl? How big a panderer do you have to be to wear that lame, generic Super Bowl merchandise? Worst of all, it’s not like he even has a chance to win in […]

I missed the score, but got the margin of victory exactly right:

The only guarantee I can confidently make for this Sunday is that Joe Buck’s man-crush on Tom Brady will force me to mute the volume midway through the first quarter.
