Double Standard on John McCains’ Infidelity?

So the media has been all over John Edward’s extra-marital affair and, in my opinion, rightfully so. I mean this guy was in the running for POTUS! Our leaders need to be trustworthy and faithful.

Rapper Ludacris’ New Pro-Obama Song.

I’m not sure what to make of this. I don’t agree with most of McCain’s views, but to say “McCain don’t belong in any chair unless he’s paralyzed”  is going too far. it is not a responsible lyric. What do you think?
Ludacris- Politics, Obama is Here

Si Se Puede! (Yes We Can) Obama Wins Nomination

Obama wins the Democratic nomination, making him the first African-American presidential candidate of any major party. He did this by beating out Sen. Hillary Clinton, last years presumptive nominee.

Obama wins Oregon; Hillary Wins Kentucky

As expected, Obama wins in Oregon(58-42) while Clinton wins big in Kentucky(65-30).
Although he lost in Kentucky, Obama still gained 14 pledged delegates which now gives him the attainable majority of pledged delegates.
That means that Clinton cannot catch him even if she wins the rest of the contests with landslide victories. 
The exit polls in Kentucky revealed some [...]
