Does the High Road Lead to Defeat?

When Obama secured the Democratic nomination, John McCain pledged to run a civil campaign founded on the issues. While he almost immediately kicked that pledge to the curb, I must confess that I hadn't expected McCain's message to deterioriate into that which he had once condemned: the very Karl Rove politics of smear and deceit that doomed his candidacy in 2000. And I certainly hadn't expected him to best Rove at his own game. But he has.

Please, No Greek Temple at Invesco

The GOP has been relentless in their attempts to paint Obama as a presumptuous celebrity who believes he has a lock on the presidency. Apart from the pseudo presidential seal introduced and, thankfully, thrown by the wasteside in June, Obama has generally succeeded in looking presidential without acting as if he is already president.

Breaking: Plot to Assassinate Obama Thwarted

CBS4 in Denver reports that at least four people are under arrest in connection with a plot to assassinate Sen. Obama on the night of his acceptance speech. The men, whom had high-powered, scoped rifles and other equipment in their cars, confessed to federal authorities that they had come to Denver to kill Obama. At least one of the apprehended men was wearing a ring with a swastika.

Clinton Camp Still Trying to Sink Obama?

We've all heard the theory: sink Obama in 2008, elevate Hillary in 2012. I must confess that it seems all the more credible in light of statements by Clinton's top advisers and confidants; a sort of coordinated outrage that has followed (coincidentally) Obama's selection of Biden as his running mate.

Chet, Not John

The Associated Press reports that Obama's shortlist includes another name: Edwards. And that's Chet, not John. Edwards, a powerful nine-term Congressman from Corpus Christi, is a favorite of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who has touted his "extraordinary credentials" and expressed publicly her hope that he is the veep nominee. His district includes President Bush's hometown of Crawford.

Good News for National Journal: Biden Already Ranked Third Most Liberal Senator

It just occurred to me that the National Journal ranked Joe Biden as the third most liberal U.S. Senator in 2007. Bernie Sanders, a self-described socialist, came in fourth. This is clearly good news for the Journal. If Biden is selected, they won't have to revise their formula to achieve their preferred outcome.

Obama Says He's Chosen His Running Mate

Sen. Obama confirmed to Kathy Kiely of USA Today that he has chosen his running mate. He would not reveal whether he's informed that person or say when he would inform supporters. Obama did say that he sought someone who is "prepared to be president," who would be "a partner ... in strengthening this economy for the middle class and working families," and "somebody who's independent, somebody who can push against my preconceived notions and challenge me so we have got a robust debate in the White House."

Obama Meets Privately With Kaine and His Staff

Sen. Obama met with Gov. Kaine and his staff this morning for 15 minutes at a Richmond hotel. Sure, the two were scheduled to hit the trail together. And yes, for weeks the media and blogosphere alike have tried in vain to divine a decision out of everything from Obama's scheduled stops to his use of personal pronouns. One more attempt won't kill you.

Don't Panic, Just Improve Your Aim

While troubled to see McCain ahead in the latest Reuters/Zogby poll, I was even more surprised at the media's reaction. First of all, this is not the latest nationwide poll. It was conducted August 14-16. The latest nationwide poll is LA Times/Bloomberg, conducted August 16-18 (with a larger sample size), which has Obama leading by 2.

Obama Hits Back on Taxes

Sen. Obama is finally hitting back on taxes with a new ad. Sen. McCain has been running a series of attack ads featuring blanket claims that Obama's election would mean "higher taxes." In fact, Obama's plan yields three times greater tax relief to middle class families.
