Why is Bill Clinton so sexy? Well, he's just really really good at what he does (when he's in the right mood). Here are my favorite quotes from last night's speech, ones that really shredded the republicans and lifted Obama in ways that only Bill Clinton can articulate.
Here are some of my favorite quotes from the speech. Watch the video for yourself HERE.
Finally republicans gained control of Congress and the White House and "LOOK WHAT HAPPENED."
"I love Joe Biden."
Hillary said she will do everything she can to get Obama elected. Bill: "That makes two of us. Actually, that makes 18 million of us."
"Everything I learned [as president] has convinced me that Barack Obama is the man for this job."
"Obama's first decision was selecting a running mate [and] he hit it out of the park."
"Barack Obama is on the right side of history."
Bill Clinton to John McCain and the republicans: "Thanks but no thanks."
Obama Picks Joe Biden
It's official. After all the speculation, I get a text at 3:09 a.m. saying Joe Biden is indeed Obama's pick for a running mate. Fine. Great! The mad guessing game is over!!!!
Obama fights back
Wow.No more Mr. Nice guy. Obama pointed out that McCain said you have to have at least $5 million to be considered 'rich'. Maaan, I have a long way to go. That means if I make 4 million I'm just, er, middle class? Check out the video, HERE
GIVE BOLT A BREAK! (Oh, wait, he's not American)
A CNN story quoted the International Olympic Committee chief Jacques Rogge (of Belgium) saying Olympic runner Ussain Bolt is disrespectful when he wins and "showboats" across the finish line without regard for his competitiors. Yeah. Michael Phelps would, too, if he was a runner. He does his own version of showing off, and he should. No one has a problem w. Phelps. If they did, it wouldn't be on CNN, you betcha!
No we McCain't
In an interview on Politico.com, John McCain was asked how many houses he and his wife own. The answer? Er...ahhhh....he'll have his staff get back with you on that. LMAO!!!
Then the Obama camp immediatly decided to have some fun with this new ad: posted HERE on utube.
Eye for an Eye. Let's get it, Dems!

Detroit Hippies
There's no hippie like a Detroit hippie, I'll tell ya. As much as I've always leaned a bit towards the hippie side, I always thought the only true hippies left were people like my parents, who were hippies and still are, now they're just old hippies. And since the 60's my two sets of parents have a. left the country b. became a part of the American working class c. have random friends from their hippie past pop up now and then. But Detroit still has a very strong hippie population and its claimed some of my generation. I think that's pretty AWESOME!
ARE JOURNALISTS STUPID?
So as we all know, it's getting close to the time when McCain and Obama are going to pick their 'veeps' for the general election. And I think every single major media outlet (and not-so-major ones, too) are going on this wild goose chase to see if they can guess who each candidate will pick. It's like McCain/Lieberman ticket? Obama Biden? Huh? Maybe? Yes? No? Huh?
My thing is: Unless we're SERIOUSLY going to influence this choice by writing and reporting about it, then WHO CARES? They'll pick who they pick, and then we can say, Oh! He picked so and so and then write about that. Not spend days, weeks, months, trying to figure out who it will be. That's a waste of energy. Once it's announced, sure, I want to be the first to know! But before then even if I did guess right...a few hours after they announce it, it won't matter who was right. If it does, then that's just stupid, Journalistis.

McCain says media love Obama. REALLY?
This would be on the news 24 hours a day if this was Obama. If Obama can't beat this guy, then Americans are stupid, or Obama needs to run a better campaign.
If I were a drug lord I wouldn't hire Lil' Wayne. Here's why:
[Just for fun}
When I was considering Lil' Wayne for the position of Subcomandante Drogas I took a couple things into consideration.
First of all, he gets most of his money from being a rapper these days and is arguably a great one, so I'd have a really hard time scheduling him in.
And then I started thinking, well, he's in the spotlight far too much. If he was working for me and he got mauled by the paparazzi, then what?
So after further deliberations I thought I could have him work an international cartel from somewhere where he would not be recognized. Um... No. That wouldn't work out either. He's way too into himself. When he woke up and realized that his neighbors had no idea that he was the 'best rapper alive' or had any way to gauge his talent, he might shrivel up and die.
So, needless to say, he didn't get a call back. I hope I didn't hurt his feelings.
Anyway, we can still have heroin boiling parties in your glass house, right Mr. Carter?

Meghan McCain's political blog
Get this: Yesterday, John McCain held a press conference at the Big Rock (very fancy steak house in Birmingham, MI) during which he encouraged attendees to visit his daughter's blog, as she was covering her life on the trail. So I decided to check it out after I got an e-mail from my co-worker Ed Brayton that included a link to a blog that points out how much Meghan's blog coverage sucks.
I laughed so hard, I thought I'd share. But don't take my or Nick Gillespie's opinion for it. Check out Meghan's blog and get your own opinion, HERE.
Notice how 'awesome' the photo captions are. They go something like 'Check out this kid's tie' and 'How cute is this little girl'.
Complete with glamor shots of Meghan!
[Also notice that "Jay", the "Straight Talk Express" bus driver, is the only black person in a crowd of 3,000.]
Here's what Meg was most proud of this week:
And the main entry right now on the blog: oday began with one of the most memorable and unique town halls of Dad's campaign, held at the Toyota Arena in York, Pennsylvania. For the first time, Jay drove the "Straight Talk" right into the middle of the packed hall and Dad, U.S. Senator Joe Lieberman and former Governor Tom Ridge exited the bus into the cheering crowd of more than 3,000 people to start the town hall. It was such a cool entrance and an amazing event! I had a great time watching it unfold from the front seat of the bus. It was also fun spending most of the day with Senator Lieberman, one of the nicest and most genuine people I've ever met. Tomorrow we head to Michigan...>
I can sum all that up in one sentence: "Dear diary, I had so much fun on the bus with Dad today. Love, Meghan.
I assume this blog is geared at young people. But, as a young peron, I have to say, it misses the mark. It insults my intelligence ... and hers.
