There are two astonishing liars out there. One of them lasted for 24 hours. The other remains America’s Sweetheart™. And one wonders: what has happened to the old concept of “truthfulness.” (And of “Truth” itself among the self-proclaimed moral mavens of the bloviating class.)

The latest NEWSWEEK poll shows Obama opening up a double digit lead over John McCain and ”An astounding 86 percent of voters now say they are dissatisfied with the way things are going in the United States, while a mere 10 percent say they are satisfied.”

Forget Sarah Palin… The opponent is John McCain and his stance on the issues represents more of the same, not change. That’s the message in Obama’s latest ad that focuses on equal pay for women:
On Monday, in a conference call with female supporters, Barack Obama and his aides outlined a new strategy to target women [...]

For all who were hoping for a floor fight today… Those hopes were dashed by a classy show of unity as Hillary Clinton called on the DNC to end the roll call vote and nominate Barack Obama by acclamation (emphasis mine):
Although there was some suspense over how the nomination process would play out, in the end, Senator [...]

It seems in blogging less I missed the news that David Wade, longtime aide to Senator John Kerry, has taken a leave absence to work for the Obama campaign. David has been tapped to be “the spokesman for whoever presumptive Democratic nominee Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) taps as his running mate.”

No matter how you feel about the eventual Democratic nominee (Hillary or Obama), today was a bad day for democracy.
