For what it’s worth, the Obama campaign may be taking the Hispanic vote for granted. I have contacted them at least five times trying to get them to correct glaring errors on the Spanish page of their website. My hunch is much of it was written by a heritage-speaker, someone who is of Hispanic heritage that speaks Spanish at home but has never had any formal education in Spanish. I’m referring specifically to items that are part of the template, not necessarily the posts, which seem to have been written by educated speakers. Still, the mistakes are elementary, and I can’t imagine that they wouldn’t want to correct them. For what it’s worth, the McCain page has no such errors. If anyone has any connections with the campaign, put them in contact with me.

That's not even an SAT word. And this guy teaches at Berkeley? Much to his colleagues' chagrin.

Yoo is what my daddy used to call a chicken shit. He's not even man enough to stand by/defend the decisions he made.

This administration has to have more craven cowards than any other administration in history.

Is Yoo North Korean? Just saying...

You can't stop the terrorists who have hijacked your party, but you want us to believe you can stop Osama bin Laden?

This Boren doesn't fall far from the tree. He's a DINO. The Boren family is an old, old, old Oklahoma Democratic family. He is a Democrat because he had to be 1) because of his family; 2) to get elected in Oklahoma.

Someone needs to remind him that everyone in Oklahoma knows his father is a closeted, self-hating homosexual. Everyone at OU, where he is president, knows it. Only cute boys work in his office. He promoted a 30-year old with a bachelor's degree to a VP position. He's actually pretty shameless about it.

Dan Boren thinks he has to be extra conservative because he's afraid his father's skeletons are going to somehow affect his political career.

This has opposition research written all over it. Every time Obama gets hit now, he needs to question whether the information was fruit of this poisonous tree.

These silly calls for resignations on both sides need to stop. Let each side say what they will, and let the voters decide who crossed the line.

You know a Republican is cheating when he appears in public alongside his dutiful wife, especially one that looks as much like Tammy Wynette as Cindy McCain.
