Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but I find it curious that drudge has a picture of Obama kissing and grabbing the arm of an attractive blonde white woman. There is no such picture in the linked article.

I dunno, I thought nothing of it until you said something. Is Barack going door to door asking, "Where da white women at?"

BTW- My 68 year old father-in-law mentioned to me this weekend that he'll be voting for Obama because he's so "well spoken". I wasn't quite sure if he was being racist or meant that he liked what he had to say.

So, turns out the Democrat who took Mark Foley's seat is also a scumbag:

Rep. Tim Mahoney (D-FL) "agreed to a $121,000 payment to a former mistress who worked on his staff and was threatening to sue him," ABC News reports.

"Mahoney, who is married, also promised the woman... a $50,000 a year job for two years at the agency that handles his campaign advertising."

"Mahoney was elected two years ago following the abrupt resignation of his disgraced predecessor, Republican Mark Foley, whose lewd internet messages to teenage boys and Congressional pages created a national outrage."

You gotta laugh.

There were rumors about that this summer. I might have posted them on here.

The guy who is going to beat him is a Rooney of Steelers family fame.

Via TaxProf blog...

Hundreds of Economists Sign Letter Opposing Obama's Tax Plan

We are equally concerned with his proposals to increase tax rates on labor income and investment. His dividend and capital gains tax increases would reduce investment and cut into the savings of millions of Americans. His proposals to increase income and payroll tax rates would discourage the formation and expansion of small businesses and reduce employment and take-home pay, as would his mandates on firms to provide expensive health insurance.
