Text “FAIL” to 62262
Well, that was awesome. After what was a pretty crafty campaign to suck up a bunch of phone numbers for their SMS campaigns by promising to tell their supporters the inside scoop on the VP nom-noms, the Obama campaign rode the fail-whale all the way to Textland by playing the tease out too damn […]

If you’ve been under a rock
After waiting all afternoon for a non-existent text message from Barack, I’ll be smugly pleased if this new-media stunt is rendered totally moot by the time it comes out. If ABC and CNN are both saying the Secret Service is on its way to Wilmington, I’m taking that as all the news we need.

The House of the Senate?
Oh man I love a good play on words.
I also love House, the Fox TV series about the terribly arrogant and often offensive doctor who manages to dispel most people’s personal objections to his mannerisms by being freakishly smart and, more often than not, right in the end. Truth be told it’s a professional […]

McCain finally found his dipstick?
John McCain’s campaign sent out a little funny today, and it may actually be the most useful thing those pandering liars can do to help out with our energy crunch. If you send in a contribution of at least $25, they’ll send you a handy-dandy tire pressure gage that reads “Obama’s Energy Plan” on […]
