And On This Farm He Had Some . . . .
Mere hours after Bush unveils an ad using scary wolves, Political Wire is reporting that Kerry has a response ad comparing Bush to an ostrich: Ad transcript: "The eagle sours high above the earth; the ostrich buries its head in the sand.

White House Stops Airing Its Dirty Linens
A little late, in my opinion, but the White House realized it is probably not a good idea to have Bush’s bloopers and flip-flops on the official White House website.

God Sent Mixed Messages
We all know He speaks to Bush, and we all know He speaks to Pat Robertson. So why was He telling Bush one thing about the War in Iraq, and telling Pat Robertson something else: "I mean, the Lord told me it was going to be A, a disaster, and B, messy," Robertson said.

Endorsements
NYT endorses Kerry. Captains Quarters blog endorses Bush. Whew! Because I was on the edge of my seat. Does anyone know ANYONE who votes based on a newspaper endorsement? I’m seriously asking, because I don’t. Even when it is a bit of a surprise (like a newspaper which traditionally endorses Republicans now "switching" sides and endorsing Kerry).
