Every 4 years I have to quickly refresh my memory on how the electoral college ‘thing’ works.  Here’s a great video that CommonCraft just put out that summarizes the process ‘in plain English’.  Great work guys!

I won’t get political here, but made an interesting observation this evening. Take a look at the star ratings of each candidates user page videos (screen caps below). All Obama’s videos displaying on his main landing page have ratings of 4.5 or 5 out of 5 stars while McCain’s videos get 3 out of 5 (or less) stars

Based on this observation, it would look like a majority of the YouTube community is pro-O.

Yes/No?

Barack Obama

John McCain

Jib Jab’s obligatory campaign video… Pretty funny.

Now granted I haven’t picked a candidate for 2008 yet but this was pretty funny.

Was listening to Rush Limbaugh yesterday when he aired this. This is in response to Hilliary’s attempt to smear Obama by releasing a picture of him wearing a turban during a visit to Kenya in 2006.
