Republican Scandal: Technorati Blog Search

John McCain's latest campaign finance scandals grows. We'll ask again: Wher...
Yesterday, I wrote a post about some seemingly shady dealings surrounding one of John McCain's top fundraisers. That article seemed to lead to more questions about the bundler, Greg Sargeant, who was a frat brother of Florida Governor/V.P. contender, Charlie Crist. And, it has. The New York Times followed up with an article about Mr. Sargeant's partner who was apparently the one who collected the money from a varied group of contacts. Also, another piece from the Washington Post, which nails on

Missouri Voter Refuses Illegal Demand to Show Photo ID at Poll, Gets Thrown i...
This story is unfrickin'-believable. Or maybe it isn't. It took place in Thor Hearne country, after all. And though she didn't get arrested and thrown in jail, a similar incident happened to the Missouri Secretary of State during the 2006 election. A voter in Kansas City on Tuesday --- one I happen to know, because he's an Election Integrity advocate in the Show Me State --- was arrested and sent to jail after he refused to show a driver's license at the polling place before attempting to vote

Obama uses a deft touch ? while some would prefer a sledgehammer
I talked to someone earlier this week who worked tangentially on some previous campaigns with David Axelrod, the Obama campaign?s chief strategist. He told me, ?Axelrod?s not the type to drop a refrigerator on a guy?s head. He?ll take the refrigerator apart, drop one piece at a time, and save the biggest piece for last.? I mention this because there?s no shortage of handwringing in Democratic circles about Obama hitting back against John McCain?s negative/personal/dishonest campaign, but not h

Britney Spears, Paris Hilton - It's a Wonderful life..??
It's been a really hot summer so far. Temperature has remained in the 100's follow by a 10 year high of 107 the last few days. Local newspaper has also reported that you can literally boil an egg in these temperatures. Our recent postings of Katy Perry has remained equally as hotly debated just by the comments left. I have to grow several heads just to retain the ability to write since some of my readers literally would like to chop my head off. It's ironic that some borderline or perhaps agnos

Missouri's Rep. Scott Muschany: This week's Republican Sexual Hypocrite
Can the GOP keep up the pace of having at least one embarrassing elected official busted per week for violent criminal sexual behavior all the way through to the election? They dipped down into the fetid well to give us Missouri state Rep. Scott Muschany, R-Frontenac. What did he do? It's a hat trick of disgusting behavior. * He has been indicted for sexual assault of a 14-year-old girl who is the daughter of a state employee; * He was involved in a sexual relationship with the victim's mothe
