(Read: RACISTS) Well, Momma always said "Stupid is as stupid does" and Jack Murtha, an embarrassment to my state of Pennsylvania, has issued a half-hearted apology to Pennsylvanians in the southwestern part of the state (that would be the Johnstown and suburban Pittsburgh area). He did so by saying that 5 to 10 years ago, the entire area was really redneck. Now, they are just (plain old) "redneck." Well, thanks. That means a lot, Jack. He continued to back pedal by saying: " It's better than it was a few weeks ago. It's better than it was a few months ago." em> Ah, ...

Hugh Hewitt's TownHall Blog —
The shocker of a one-point lead for McCain in the Zogby national tracking poll for Friday will energize the GOP 96 hour effort everywhere. The Washington Post reports on the McCain-Palin effort to woo PA. My suggestion: Send every PA voter you know an e-mail containing three links: This one. This one. This one. In fact, send the links to every small town and rural voter you know. Pennsylvania has been the specific target of Democrats' contempt, but that contempt isn't limited by state borders.
