Guy looks like a fat Warren Kinsella with better hygiene.

How not to handle a hecklers…

 ”Hold on a second. Hold on a second. I can’t concentrate on the teleprompter”  “That’s all”  ” Rewind the teleprompter”

Super Pundit the Lying Jackal  just can’t understand that Biden got little guy from Shawiniganed by Palin tonight:

When he choked up at the end about his children, and what he has endured in his family life, it was utterly amazing television. It will the clip you will see many times. His opponent, while telegenic and slightly more capable than I’d expected, is not ready for the big leagues yet. Maybe one day, but not yet. Biden enhanced his reputation by resisting the temptation to belittle the Alaskan Governor on the many occasions when she stumbled. Fascinating TV. —Warren Kinsella

The little gal was ok?  Eh, Warren. Remember…Nixon won on the radio. Kennedy won on tv!

Quick turn around for the McCain campaign!  Biden is the gift that keeps on giving!!   Thank you Jim Johnson VP search team!!

Looks like Warren Kinsella made an appearance on Red State Update with Jackie and Dunlap to discuss Sarah Palin.

Hot Air has a great review of the papers Palin’s legal team has released relating to the firing of Walt Monegan.

According to the papersfiled by Palin’s legal team, that was not the only instance of insubordination from Monegan:

• 12/9/07: Monegan holds a press conference with Hollis French to push his own budget plan.
• 1/29/08: Palin’s staffers have to rework their procedures to keep Monegan from bypassing normal channels for budget requests.
• February 2008: Monegan publicly releases a letter he wrote to Palin supporting a project she vetoed.

June 26, 2008: Monegan bypassed the governor’s office entirely and contacted Alaska’s Congressional delegation to gain funding for a project.  —- Ed Morrissey, Hot Air

To me it’s surprising that Monegan lasted as long as he did.  Especially since the Public Safety Director position is a political appointment and is supposed to serve at the pleasure of the Governor. 

Well you can put lipstick on a commie bastard. But he’s still a commie bastard. Looks like the Russians favour Vlad Putin and Barack “The Sledgehammer” Obama over John “The Pushover” McCain:

Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin would triumph over President Dmitry Medvedev if presidential polls were held this weekend, an opinion poll showed on Wednesday.

A separate survey showed that if Russians were allowed to vote in U.S. polls, they would prefer Democrat Barack Obama to Republican John McCain.

Pollsters for state-run VTsIOM found that if Russians could vote in U.S. elections, the Republicans would get little support, though most of those queried did no give a view.

Obama would receive 27 percent support and McCain 6 percent, VTsIOM found, in the September 6-7 poll of 1,600 Russians.

“I attribute our findings mainly to the fact that McCain has made more anti-Russian rhetoric. Obama seemed to be a little more pro-Russian,” Olga Kamenchuk, VIsIOM communications director, told Reuters. —–Reuters

New McCain/Palin campaign ads going up in Moscow this week…
