Felt Like a Monday

A midweek day off is always wierd, it messes with your internal sense of time, at least mine anyway. I have not used an alarm clock in years, even when needing to arise ahead of schedule. The loonbats on the left never cease to amaze and entertain me, I just can't take them seriously anymore their arguments are so detached from reality. I have been around the block and been dragged through a few briar patches in the process and never claimed victimhood nor whined about it, that's life. I love these liberals that grew up with a silverspoon and claim to know how to better run my life, screw them, if I wanted euro-style society I'd move there, I don't. If they want to try and play word games, I'm game.

A good read on Mexico's election, it seems the left has the same tactics as here.

MEXICO CITY--Felipe Calderón of the National Action Party hasn't any doubt that he won Sunday's presidential election, and he says that his adversary, Andres Manuel López Obrador of the Democratic Revolutionary Party (PRD), knows it, too. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal at his campaign headquarters yesterday, Mr. Calderón appeared rested and confident. "I'm not going to get into personalities," he told me, "but all the parties have copies of the tally sheets showing the voting, and the PRD knows that it lost."
Mr. Calderón's numbers jibe with those of Mexico's Federal Electoral Institute (IFE) and it seems almost certain that he won. But as we go to press, an official announcement has not yet been made. A preliminary ruling is scheduled for today, with the official decision to come on Friday. And even then the country may be in for weeks of the Mexican equivalent of challenges to hanging chads.
The big victory in this race goes to the IFE in carrying out a spectacularly clean, transparent and well-organized election. If institutions matter to development, as Nobel laureate Douglass North contends, then Mexico is well on the way to progress. Mr. Calderón echoed the sentiments of millions of Mexicans when he told me yesterday that watching the electoral process made him "proud to be a Mexican." Mexico's next test will be how it stands up to Mr. López Obrador's threat to call street protests if the IFE decision goes against him.

It seems conservatism has a winning voice south of the border as well?!? Read the entire article here.

Another good one on Rudy Giulliani can be found here. I think he would be a perfect VP but not head of the ticket, that is between John McCain, Mitt Romney, and George Allen. Newt Gingrich would also make a superb VP with his message. It looks like on the liberal side as being all Hillary if the loonbats don't go Feingold or desert to third parties like the Peace and Freedom Party of CodePink and Cindy Sheehan.
