(Or perhaps the &#8220;even a stopped clock&#8221; category?&#8230;)
Hat tip to the site &#8220;Political Irony,&#8221; which clued me in to this piece from Esquire, surveying the opinions of several white supremacist and neo-Nazi leaders. Apparently voting for McCain is something most of them just couldn&#8217;t stomach, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I really find it hard to believe&#8230; even if the McCain campaign has no ethical compunctions about this sort of thing, you&#8217;d think they&#8217;d be tactically smarter by now.
But no:  according to the L.A. Times, McCain&#8217;s people are now dredging up a months-old story and accusing the paper of &#8220;suppressing&#8221; a video showing Barack Obama [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s been more heat than light in recent days about alleged election fraud of various kinds. Today at electoral-vote.com there&#8217;s a good piece about some of the real problems involved here (emph. mine):

		<description><![CDATA[As John McCain continues to trail Barack Obama badly in the polls, Republicans are reacting in different ways. Quite a few prominent conservatives are openly abandoning McCain, or at least singing the death knell for his campaign. From one perspective, this is just a matter of reasonably intelligent people seeing the writing on the wall, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Tonight was the fourth and final debate of this electoral season (third between the presidential contenders), and McCain went into it a very long way from victory. In a campaign where those fond of sports metaphors have accused him of throwing too many &#8220;hail Mary&#8221; passes already, tonight was his last chance.
He still didn&#8217;t score.
