Students here at Miami University clung to the recent election like AIG to their bailout money. Now that the election has been over for almost a week, will students maintain an interest in politics? That has been the question on the minds of many leaders within both College Republicans and College Democrats.
To be fair, it is conceivable that O...

Well, Obama won. No huge surprise there.
A bit more surprising was Yale's reaction. Upon learning of his impending victory, Yalies went wild, flooding courtyards. One obviously inebriated student was heard yelling "Vom fo...
In lieu of the upcoming election, Boise State’s student run lecture series, Vox Discipuli, hosted two nationally recognized pundits in a political debate earlier today. Is it ridiculous to anyone else that a small state school hosted a more cogent sounding debate than the recent vice presidential one?
Peter Beinart and Jonah Goldberg, editors,...
There’ve been quite a few controversies (and by controversy, I mean facetious rhetoric for rednecks) regarding Obama’s eligibility for presidency. Some say he wasn’t born in America. Meanwhile, the rest of America has been asked the question ‘Is America ready for a black president?’ and then ‘Is Obama black enough?’ Now Obama’s heritage looks as...
In honor of tonight's presidential debate, which despite some uncertainty is going ahead, plan some political fun. If you're not interested in getting trashed but want to watch the debate with other people just as into politics, there will be a debate watching party at the Reitz Union ballroom from 7:45-10 pm, hosted by the Theta Sigma Chapter o...
John McCain stepped up to accept the Republican nomination for President last night on the final day of the party's national convention. The speech was less effective than say the Superbowlesque Obama event or last night Sarah Palin's experiment in truth stretching (and breaking) last night, but it did give the overall impression that McCain's a...
While watching the frenzied, milky-white crowd at the Republican National Convention yesterday, I couldn’t help but notice the buttons that many of the delegates were wearing to support Sarah Palin who was giving her speech that night. We’ve moved past the “Girl Power” stage, and now I guess we’re just telling it like it is. The two examples:

So thus begins what feels like Day 342 of Sarah Palin all-day every-day news coverage. Last night the self described "Hockey Mom" (which has quickly become the most annoying term in the world), addressed the Republican National Convention to accept her nomination as VP.
In the video you'll hear Palin charm the pants off of America using her Fa...
So Sarah Palin is in the news 24/7 these days. First she was a shocking VP pick by McCain, and now a 44 year old grandma-to-be. McCain really seems to have gone out on a limb here, obviously trying to appeal to those Hilary voters, still pissed off after her stinging loss to O-BAM-A! during the primaries. They are both in fact women, but here’s ...
So this is a story that might have gotten a little more attention if Hurricaine Gustav didn’t turn out to be kind of a pansy and Sarah Palin’s daughter didn’t turn out to be kind of a ho. There were some intense events transpiring on the first day of the Republican National Convention, and no I’m not talking about Laura Bush and Ice Barbie teami...
In an op-ed published today on CNN, Kathleen McCartney, the Dean of the Harvard Graduate School of Education, criticizes John McCain and Barack Obama for neglecting the issue of public education and focusing only on “the war, the economy and escalating energy costs.”
While she does not dispute the importance of these issues, McCartney argues t...
Obama picked Delaware senator Joe Biden, in an attempt to reclaim his lead by confusing old people. But, even if they aren't confused, it will give them a reason to still vote for an old white guy.
Definitely a smart choice by Obama.
While those hoping for an Obama/Gore ticket will be disappointed, this isn't a bad alternative -- at all. Ob...
Somehow I never pictured fellow Ivy league students from Dartmouth as “the common bro.”
Nevertheless, two Dartmouth students created a website all about Obama made for just this kind of “dude.” Brobama.org, started by rising seniors Lee Cooper and Scott Henning, summarizes important political news into shorter, more understandable “bro” langua...
The rap community seems to be all about Obama, but the support does more harm than help. While their endorsement is probably intended to motivate the college aged, the results have been dubious.
Jumping on the Barack band wagon started by Nas, Ludacris released a pro-Obama video on YouTube yesterday. Unfortunately, the video was also anti-ever...
Jesse Ventura has put the smackdown on speculation that he would be running in the upcoming Senate election. With his calendar now clear, the former professional wrestler and ex-Minnesota governor extraordinaire should set his sights on an even more exciting political position: president of Northwestern. With Bienen retiring next year, the stage...
