POPSFollow The Money & Why Fannie Mae's Reform Was Thwarted Is it any wonder that the 2005 reforms Senator McCain championed never passed? If Congress does not act, American taxpayers will continue to be exposed to the enormous risk that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac pose to the housing market, the overall financial system, and the economy as a whole. John McCain, May 26, 2005

POPS Keep Your Sunny Side Up by Mark Steyn
The Iraq surge (McCain's unique selling point) is a victim of its own success and has dwindled away to an irrelevant footnote, and the front pages are full of a supposed economic catastrophe which the crude rules of politics suggest any fool should be able to hang on the incumbent. Yet Obama still can't open up a solid lead. After all, why would record numbers of viewers watch the vice-presidential debate if the election's already over? Meanwhile, the supposedly damaged Republican brand is proving suprisingly resilient. I see one of the two New Hampshire seats that flipped blue in '06 may return to the red fold next month. Where's the blowout? A lot of the dynamite is well past its sell-by date: Two references last night to Ronald Reagan negotiating with Tip O'Neill. No one remembers who Tip O'Neill is. McCain might as well have been evoking misty watercolor mem'ries of Talleyrand . . . Obama, by contrast, is all future - which is understandable, given his past.

POPSWhy Ayers case is risky for McCain-Palin And what of Palin's associations with the Alaskan Independence Party that wants to secede from the nation, and the statements of the party's founder that are hostile and profess violence towards the United States?

POPSJohn McCain's Terrorist Ties Liddy also said he should have recommended shots to the groin instead of the head. If that wasn't enough to inflame any nut cases, he mentioned labeling targets "Bill" and "Hillary" when he practiced shooting. Given Liddy's record, it's hard to see why McCain would touch him with a 10-foot pole. On the contrary, he should be returning his donations and shunning his show. Yet the senator shows no qualms about associating with Liddy -- or celebrating his service to their common cause. How does McCain explain his howling hypocrisy on the subject? He doesn't. I made repeated inquiries to his campaign aides, which they refused to acknowledge, much less answer. On this topic, the pilot of the Straight Talk Express would rather stay parked in the garage. That's an odd policy for someone who is so forthright about his rival's responsibility. McCain thinks Obama should apologize for associating with a criminal extremist. To which Obama might reply: After you.

POPSTall tales "Let's start telling the truth," Biden said during a presidential primary debate sponsored by YouTube last year. "Number one, you take all the troops out - you better have helicopters ready to take those 3,000 civilians inside the Green Zone, where I have been seven times and shot at. You better make sure you have protection for them, or let them die." But when questioned about the episode afterward by the Hill newspaper, Biden backpedaled from his claim of being "shot at" and instead allowed: "I was near where a shot landed."

POPSObama's Foreign Funders Of course, its against the law for him to accept money from non-US citizens, but that wouldn't stop the Messiah, would it?

POPSJoe Biden can only lose this Debate My blog. I really believe that people are underestimating how low the expectations for Palin are. She really can do nothing but look better than expected, which means Biden can only lose unless he is really careful. He's not notorious for being careful.

POPSBrokaw's Interview With President Clinton Clinton followed by stating that he "certainly admire " Obama, but that while the Illinois Democrat has "unlimited potential," he could only achieve greatness in time. At one point in the interview, Clinton acknowledged that it was his wife, Hillary, who "told me to go help ." And while Bill Clinton criticized John McCain for representing a brand of politics that he disagreed with, he offered a far more adulatory take on the Arizona Republican's personality traits. "Most people would have been broken by what he been through, or we would have been happy just to give him an atta boy and medal and let him wander through life," said Clinton. "I think his greatness is that he keeps trying to come back to service without ever asking people to cut him any slack or feel sorry for him or any of that stuff because he was a P.O.W."

POPSObama - a popular Freddie Mac Senator Obama is in the top 4 of political contribution recipients from Freddie Mac. The other 3, also Democrats. Then add Chris Dodd and Barney Frank to the mix and it's very 'clear' how they blame the Bush administration for the debacle.

POPSBill Clinton's Complimentary Remarks On Sarah and Todd Clinton concluded his statement on Palin by asking why "say anything bad about a person" and why couldn't everyone just "be happy for her elevation to the ticket," even though they disagree with her. This is a surprisingly gracious statement from Clinton on Palin, and he is absolutely correct. Politics shouldn't be about talking repeating vicious rumors concerning someone's family members and hacking into their email accounts to look for dirt on them. Perhaps both parties need to listen to what Clinton is saying; however, the left bears the brunt of responsibility for the smear campaigns against Palin since her name was announced as the candidate.
