Politics Buzz Remember Joe “the Plumber” Wurzelbacher? Unfortunately, so do the good folks at Christianity Today, who decided to let him announce that he would never let “queers” near his children. Furthermore, he claims to have gay friends who, despite his opinions, are going to “do their thing.” Wurzelbacher, however, declined to specify whether “their thing” included “eating children.”

John McCain let this little gem fly during his “Top Ten Porkiest Projects” TweetFest today. I also enjoyed #4: “$2.1 million for the Center for Grape Genetics in New York - quick peel me a grape.”

They're all strikingly hot. Even Dick Cheney. Especially Dick Cheney. No joke. Playful and manly. Other highlights: Biden, McCain, Pelosi. (Not Blagojevich, though. Looks like a dumpy turtle.)

A video montage of Elisabeth Hasselbeck's most annoying rants from '08, including answering questions with questions, talking about the “Barack Obama kool-aid,” and kissing Sean Hannity's ass. Caution: It's five minutes of listening to a voice comparable to nails on a chalkboard.

The McCain-Palin team had a little yard sale last week and sold off a bunch of campaign Blackberries for $20 a piece. As a bonus, it turns out they still had months of campaign email messages on them.
Politics Buzz For the last-minute holiday shopper or the Dell fan: a McCain-Palin Campaign clearance sale! Shop used Blackberrys, coffee tables, and Ethernet cables, all at bargain-basement prices. If you know someone in Arlington, VA, get them on the horn, because this is a piece of history that you don't want to miss.
ABC airs the Wright attack ad that McCain's campaign never released. Steve Schimdt is sitting in a bunker somewhere yelling “If only!”
Politics Buzz The man who claimed to be behind the “Sarah Palin doesn't know Africa is a continent” news item doesn't actually exist. Updated: MSNBC wrongly traced the story back to Eisenstadt, supposedly a a McCain policy adviser. But he's a made-up character working for a made-up institute.
John McCain made his first post-election appearance on The Tonight Show last night. McCain has a long chat with Jay — is this a snub to Letterman?
When the game came to end, McCain gave a pretty classy final note from his side.

A concise typographic guide to the 2008 election, with a few words yet to come. Ugh. Remember the yellow pantsuit thing, the $400 hair cut debacle? Can’t wait for this sordid mess to be over.
TV Buzz The rumors were true: John McCain - and Cindy! - appeared alongside Tina Fey on SNL last night. And he was funny! The guy looks so excited, you just know he wanted to run a more freewheeling campaign all along.

McCain is fighting to hold onto Virginia while Obama campaigns in Nevada, Colorado, and Missouri. The AP also seems confident that McCain’s rumored SNL appearance is a definite go.

McCain has a new ad showing Obama praising him for his work on global warming. It basically winds up making Obama look like a respectful, reasonable person. So, you know, take THAT, Barack! Gotcha!
