Every week there is at least one political story on the campaign that makes me do a double take and ask if it is really a story. When more and more stories come up from the dregs of the blogosphere and get filtered through reputable news sites like Alaska Governor Sarah Palin’s pregnant unmarried daughter, and wild accusations are everywhere, it is interesting to take note of where these stories came from and some possible reasons why. I will be trying to do that kind of analysis with this blog on some of the most interesting stories that come up every week.
I am a moderate democrat and will be voting for Obama in this election, but I think both campaigns make some pretty wild accusations of each other, and I intend to analyze the news from a non-partisan angle.
