100,000 Vistors!!!

I just noticed I reached over 100,000 visits on my site! I thank all of my readers!

For some reason people keep coming back. I don't sell drugs, I have no porn. I do swear a lot and bash people on occasion. What makes people read my blog, or for that matter any blog?

Via Maggie Downs I think I have found regular poster Funnel Cake's dream website, called www.lamehappyhour.com.

Yes, Luntz Gives More Biased Focus Group Fodder

"Swing" voters in Cincinnati are Conservatives nearly everywhere else. Frank Luntz's spin from Cincinnati is more of the same. What was funny is this quote from the GOP stronghold of Anderson Township:

Patricia Kraps, a 44-year-old human resources supervisor from Anderson Township, said the speech was positive because "It wasn't negative."

I guess she missed the rest of the primetime speakers at the RNC Convention.

Reporter Greg Korte gets kudos for giving us truth:

To be sure, the focus group leaned right of center - a reflection of a mostly conservative base in southwestern Ohio. But with very few swing voters in play - pollsters say the number is 4 percent to 8 percent of Ohio voters - Bush can't afford even a few defections from weak Republicans.

MSGOP gets another shot or did Frank just pull the wool over timid NBC's eyes?

Dems To Support Write-In To Beat Allen

The Democrats are going to put out a candidate for Prosecutor. Who will it be? Three names come to mind: David Pepper, John Cranley, and believe it or not Charlie Luken. Who else would the Dems put out there who can raise money quickly?

One of these three would certainly start to clear up the race for Mayor.

Nick Spencer has more. Also, wish Nick well on surviving a crime.

Violence Is Upon Us

Atrios reports on two incidents recently of vandalism at Democratic locations. One is in Michigan and one in Pennsylvania. This I fear is only the beginning.

A Hoax??? A Lie Is More like it.

Wille Cunningham, local talk radio hack was never selected to lead the Pledge, yet press releases and news reports said otherwise. It appears it was all just a lie put forth by Cunningham to gain attention. Well, media whores do that kind of thing, and well, Willie is a media whore.

Now, I know Cunningham is full of shit 75% of the time, but what is sad, many people don't know that, and even some do and don't care. Cunningham is the poster child for bad media. People complain about Hollywood. They would do better to push Clear Channel to keep Burbank on the comedy side, keep McConnell on the serious side, and just ditch Cunningham and put on something that is not just media whoring.

I wonder Why

Korte reports about GOP Pollster and Talking Points King regarding why he chose Cincinnati for his focus groups:

For Luntz, Cincinnati has become a favorite place to take America's pulse.

Ah, Greg may wish to rethink that. Cincinnati is not the pulse of America. I am sure no one living here actually thinks that. Cincinnati is conservative, loyally so, and the people are fickle, easily influenced. What better target to go after for a focus group you want to spin your way, assuming you are a Republican.
