He has a Mad Men DVD on his campaign airplane!

Word is he hasn't watched it yet.  I guess he's been busy... 

Dear Sen. Obama,

I really admire you.  I've had high hopes, along with all the other Dems starving for an inspiring, ELECTABLE leader, ever since that famous convention speech.  So, pardon me while I express my deep disappointment in your response to the SCOTUS ruling on the DC gun law. 

What were you thinking??  

Not even a few months ago, you were all oh yeah, it's a good law, blah blah.  And now, in the name of political expediency, the law was "overreaching."  I'm sure it's not necessary to say here that just because SCOTUS says so doesn't mean we all have to agree.  We all get why this happened--  It's a conservative court. 

Did anyone else notice that when John Edwards endorsed Senator Obama, he quoted Ronald Reagan?

 “There is one man who knows in his heart that it is time to tear down that wall and make one America, Barack Obama.”

 Has it come to this?  Does Edwards really believe that the polarization of so-called red and blue America are comparable to that of East and West Germany in 1987?  And what subliminal message is he sending--that Sen. Obama is the next Ronald Reagan--or that Edwards is?

Maybe he could talk some sense into all those bitter, gun- and Bible-wielding folks. You think? Clearly, Sen. Obama could use some help with his Pennsylvania campaign. Any suggestions?
