Ridge is a very popular former governor of Pennsylvania. He struggles with support from the Right because he is pro choice. He would likely be much more appealing to Dems and Independents than Toomey, Santorum, etc.

I've seen several posts from the Right claiming Bush was showing strength and dignity when he kissed the Saudi Prince. They also claim bowing is completely different and "subservient". What do you think?

"President Barack Obama's gift of an iPod to Queen Elizabeth II came loaded with 40 songs from popular Broadway productions, including "The King and I," "West Side Story" and "Dreamgirls." The iPod was given to accompany a rare coffee table book of songs by composers Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart, which Obama also gave the queen."

"Obama's Middle-Class Task Force Has No Middle Class"

I think there should be regular middle class people on the panel. It seems incomplete without that representation. Do you agree? If yes, how should they be chosen? Is there another way for us to weigh in on what the panel is doing? finding?

Coleman is reduced to doing exactly what he claimed Franken was doing by not fighting against the state mandated recount. Where's all Coleman's talk about dignity now?

"Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin remained in the dark while her husband repeatedly asked top state officials to help get his former brother-in-law kicked off the state police force, Palin's husband and top aides said in affidavits provided to The Associated Press. "

Why is he trying to help Obama win?

Washington Post, Tuesday, August 15, 2006

"At a campaign rally in southwest Virginia on Friday, Allen repeatedly called a volunteer for Democrat James Webb "macaca." During the speech in Breaks, near the Kentucky border, Allen began by saying that he was "going to run this campaign on positive, constructive ideas" and then pointed at S.R. Sidarth in the crowd.

"This fellow here, over here with the yellow shirt, macaca, or whatever his name is. He's with my opponent. He's following us around everywhere. And it's just great," Allen said, as his supporters began to laugh. After saying that Webb was raising money in California with a "bunch of Hollywood movie moguls," Allen said, "Let's give a welcome to macaca, here. Welcome to America and the real world of Virginia." Allen then began talking about the "war on terror."

Depending on how it is spelled, the word macaca could mean either a monkey that inhabits the Eastern Hemisphere or a town in South Africa. In some European cultures, macaca is also considered a racial slur against African immigrants, according to several Web sites that track ethnic slurs."

Is this part of the reason why Republicans routinely receive less than 10% of the African American vote?

should we believe his attacks against McCain?

For example:
