Only 9 days left!

I was so sure I was going to be endorsed by the Anchorage Daily News. Instead, what do they do? They endorse Obama! What the hell? While they acknowledge that Palin isn't ready, they are unsatisfyingly nice toward her. I guess her reputation as one to hold a grudge has cowed them a bit. Tsk.

So how about all that early voting, eh? My partner voted yesterday; I plan to vote sometime this week since I'm taking election day off to drive people to the polls for the Obama campaign. Yes, I'm still researching what goes into a successful campaign strategy. If I thought McCain had a strategy, maybe I'd do some research there, too. Nah. Who am I kidding? I'd never do that.

The finger-pointing has begun, as noted yesterday. Some Republicans are suggesting that McCain focus on minimizing damage by trying to help senate and house candidates. It seems pretty unlikely he'll do that. After all, he keeps saying he has Obama right where he wants him. Ok, Senator McCain. Whatever you say.

In response to my Canadian friend's comment from yesterday, I used the term snow machine because that is what the Palin's use. I agree - it's a snowmobile. I don't know why they call it a snow machine. Maybe it's the same logic that causes Palin to refer to Troopergate as Tasergate.

So, assuming Obama wins - will he have won because of a well played campaign or because the other side ran a lousy one?

Oh ya, welcome to socialism.
