Uncle Ted is tricky - he hasn't survived that long in the Senate w/o learning a few things.

McCain's speech was rather touching. He's a nice guy and I feel sorry for him when he's faced with such a moronic crowd.

Yeah, if he conducted himself that that throughout the campaign (and not picked Palin) I would have been fine with his winning.

I said exactly the same thing! It was the best speech of his campaign.

No to mention the first time he looked comfortable in his own skin since the Primary
Yeah, he seemed relieved to no longer be under the thumb of the electorate.

I wonder if Obama will be so gracious as to offer him a position in the new administration.

True on all points - I was touched by his speech and I think he was sincere in his declaration that he planned to work with the Obama administration. I hope they do work together.

I just hope Palin does not take Steven's seat.

I just don't understand how Stevens won.
It's really not surprising if you look into the politics of the state and the opinions around him. Quite a few have found ways to invalidate the crime in their own minds.
You're just jealous! Nobody loves you because you're tiny and made of meat!

One of the things I hope plays a more prominent role in the Obama administration is the situation in Darfur/Sudan - we stood by and let Rwanda happened - we owe it to Africa (and the world) to take a stand in real human rights situations and be the force for good that we see ourselves as.

BTW Emanuelle is going to take the Chief of Staff position...

Am I the only one concerned that he chose a 70s softcore film for such a prominent cabinet position?

I don't see any reason to be concerned about that.

I understand what Nader is saying but I've gotta side with Fox News on this one.
