I just got off the phone with my 73-year-old very Republican father. Like millions of sons and daughters, I called Dad to wish him a happy Father's Day.
However, he's the one who made my day -- my entire year actually.
This morning, Dad told me that he's decided to vote for Barack Obama. He doesn't support all (hardly any actually) of Obama's policies. But, he believes this is the "most important election in the last 50 years" and perhaps his last chance to change history in this country for the better.
Dad said he wants to see an African-American elected before he dies and he doesn't care what political party he has to vote for to see it happen. Full story...

UnbeLIEVEable.
Getting excited about the thought of "drilling Alaska", huh John?
Just how DO you define "running MATE", anyways??
This is no lil "let's covertly check out the merchandise" moment; this is a full blown "oooooh, YEAH MOMMA!!! Work THAT podium- work it, I say!"
Wonder what the First Trollop will say about this.
If the first decision a presidential candidate makes about who will succeed him/her in an emergency is an indication of overall judgment, John McCain is unelectable.
In an August 2006 the Anchorage Daily News reported on the social policy positions of the candidates then running for governor, including GOP Vice-Presidential nominee Sarah Palin, Of particular interest are Palin's positions on gay marriage and state benefits for same-sex partners.
UPDATE: 8:35 AM MT: CNN confirms that it's one-term Alaska Governor Palin. This will be fun. What a desperate Hail Mary.
The bacon gained speed trotting down the runway and improbably soared, aloft in the clouds -- the reaction to Barack Obama's acceptance speech earned glowing reviews all across the political spectrum:
MSNBC Pat Buchanan - "It was a genuinely outstanding speech.
