Tiger Woods' Mistress Meter

So Tiger Woods is human after all. This was a terrible time for Tiger to be embroiled in such a scandal. It's the holidays, therefore slow news days are the norm around this time of year. So this was manna for the news networks. And every freaking network is covering the story! From ABC, CBS, NBC, ESPN, CNN to news organizations from around the world, especially Asia where he has a huge following. In Tiger's honor, I am starting my very own Mistress Counter

VIDEO- Obama Just Gave Me My New Signature - LOL

"It took us a couple of days because I like to think about what I'm talking about before I speak". This after CNN Ed Henry's moronic question on why it took two days to react to the AIG bonuses

Sarah Palin another "William Hung"?

I never quite understood the attraction of William Hung or even Sanjaya Malakar on American idol. They had absolutely no musical talent but American viewers kept voting for them. William Hung has sold millions of records.

Well, politics has its own version of William Hung - Sarah Palin. I can see why she attracts so much attention. She is beautiful, she can deliver a snarky remark with precision, she has some charisma. But in no way is she qualified to be president.

Reports are now coming out of how unqualified she is. There was the $150, 000 plus shopping sprees that led her to being called the "Wasilla Hillbilly". There was the Katie Couric interviews that led to her being lampooned on Saturday Night Live. Apparently she refused to be coached for it. Then there is the fact that she thought Africa was a country! There is even the story of her turning up wrapped in nothing but a towel before a senior staff.

Inspite of that, Rasmussen reports that two thirds of the GOP voters thought that Palin helped McCain's cause in this year's election and that 64% think she should be on the ticket in 2012!

When asked to choose among some of the GOP’s top names for their choice for the party’s 2012 presidential nominee, 64% say Palin. The next closest contenders are two former governors and unsuccessful challengers for the presidential nomination this year -- Mike Huckabee of Arkansas with 12% support and Mitt Romney of Massachusetts with 11%.

Three other sitting governors – Bobby Jindal of Louisiana, Charlie Crist of Florida and Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota – all pull low single-digit support.

In related news, 100% of the Democrats would support having her on the ticket ;)

Obama's Basketball Inner Circle

Great to see the next president is so grounded. CNN had great reporting from Don Lemon on how Obama played a game of basketball on the day of elections. I especially like the humorous touch on the jerseys "That one".

VIDEO - Fired Up! Ready to Go! Obama's awesome speech in Virginia

Well here it is. This gets to me every time I watch it!

Obama Fired Up and Ready to Go - Marvellous Speech May have won Virginia

Whoa! I have got to hand to Sen. Obama. Just when you thought he has given you his last good speech, he tops it with another. Tonight, I think Obama just won Virginia with his speech. He turned into a humorous story teller talking about how, early in February, on a cold damp day, he got to adopt the chant "Fired Up! Ready to Go!" for his campaign. I am sure a video will be popping up on YouTube. Very inspirational. Made a grown man cry - again! Very effective! Made more poignant by the death of his grandmother. Simply Amazing stuff!

John McCain Flip Flops on "Fundamentals of Our Economy"

The McCain-Palin honeymoon is officially over courtesy of the Lehman Brothers. After consistently insisting that "the fundamentals of our economy are strong".....



he hours later flip-flopped and said the "fundamentals of our economy are at risk".


I give him a few days before he finally admits that "fundamentals of our economy are broken".
