Wow. Kerry did good. Let's hope that the spin machine doesn't negate it all. I didn't see it. I listened to it on the radio. Not having TV is a very freeing experience. Of course I don't get to see the daily show's live special. I also don't get stress from listening to the screaming heads.
I have never felt as optimistic about Kerry's chances of winning as I do right now.
Yes, Bush got a few good hits in.
How will all the talk about the post-debate being more (or at least AS ) important as the debate itself effect the post-debate spin? Let's see.
Josh Marshall asks a good question: Do the Dems have something similar?
Let it not be said that we are not fair and balanced here on this small blog. I can applaud Arnold's signing of this bill. (as opposed to the previous bill mentioned in the previous Arnold post)
Although to be truly fair and balanced, I would have to point out that neither of these bills really reflect on Arnold too much since all he does is sign them.
Everyone should listen to this.
(If you are extra-interested, you cna find others here.)
Aiding the industry that helped him gain worldwide fame, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed legislation Tuesday aimed at discouraging online piracy by requiring anyone disseminating movies or music on the Internet to disclose their e-mail address.
California file sharers who trade songs or films without providing an e- mail address will be guilty of a misdemeanor, under the first-in-the-nation measure that could make it easier for law enforcement to track down people who illegally download copyrighted material.

But he has made no secret of his opposition to the online sharing of copyrighted material. Last week he signed an executive order prohibiting state employees from using software designed for file sharing.
Several comments:
1) Does this law imagine that there is such a thing as an anonymous email address. Since one can already get the IP of the file trader, how does getting blippy45678@hotmail.com help track down this person? Perhaps they are hoping that forcing the disclosure of an email address will simply have a psychological effect and curb trading.
2) How are file trading applications defined. If I had more time I would look into this.
3) If software does not have the ability to include email address with searches, does this automatically make the use of all such software illegal in CA? Is it illegal to use such software on private networks, or just the interweb(tm)?
the wikalong extension for firefox is very cool. Check it out.
There should be more ads like this. (the movie that plays automatically on the left had side of the page)
I have to say one of the few (maybe the only) non-political, non-tech-oriented, non-written-by-someone-I-know-personally blogs that I enjoy reading is mimi smartypants.
Just thought I'd share.
I am listening to Zell Miller's speech from last night, and I hear him harping on kerry voting against weapons systems. This is ludicrous.

It is one thing for this crap to go around in another brain-dead email forward, another for it to be broadcast from the podium of the keynote address of a major political party.
"This is the man who wants to be the commander in chief of our U.S. Armed Forces?" Miller asked. "U.S. forces armed with what? Spitballs?"
Miller should be ashamed of himself.
If I knock on the door of his soul, I wonder who is home?
Okay, after hearing some hubbub about the Bush twins' performance last night, I watched the last segment of the convention from c-span's website. I learned two things:
1) Republicans are not very good at making jokes.
2) George Bush is ON TIME. ALWAYS. Perhaps this why it was so hard for him to cut short the pet goat session.
George Bush has been our most punctual president. With a Kerry in the white house, work may sometimes extend past 7:00 pm into all hours of the night!
This may be the only time I ever link to wonkette.
