Agreed. The quality of the "diaries" here have been horrible. Often single line statements like, "See that Obama rallies." or "OOOOh, I hates McCain!"
538.com offers better analysis and DailyKos provides much more insightful diaries.

No October surprise in 2004?
On October 29, the Arabic news agency Al Jazeera aired a video of Osama bin Laden (see 2004 Osama bin Laden video). In a speech that justifies and takes responsibility for the actions of September 11th, bin Laden calls out the Bush administration and the American position in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. "Your security does not lie in the hands of Kerry, Bush, or al-Qaeda," Osama claimed; "Your security is in your own hands."[7] This is believed to have helped President Bush's campaign as it thrust the War on Terrorism back into the public eye. There is debate as to whether bin Laden was aware of the effect the video would have on the elections; the "Bush bounce" from the video did not surprise most outside observers of the 2004 election.Before the election, Saudi Prince Bandar cut the price of oil (thus reducing gas prices) explicitly to help ensure a Bush victory.[8] According to a 60 Minutes broadcast, "Prince Bandar enjoys easy access to the Oval Office. His family and the Bush family are close. And Woodward told us that Bandar has promised the president that Saudi Arabia will lower oil prices in the months before the election to ensure the US economy is strong on Election Day."[9]

You guys that think Palin is withdrawing are dreaming. She's raised 10 million in 2 days, and she's fired up the ground game, evangelicals. Yes, she horrid, yes she will turn of independents, but McCain wasn't winning without turning out Jebus's army. They are playing their favorite game at the convention.. ooooh the liebural media is after us. OH NOES!!! This will rally the hard core. I've been to the boards, I've listened to the radio...they love her... their shield of ignorance is too strong to penetrate.

I haven't taken Halperin seriously since way back in November he devoted three columns, three, to whether or not Obama had really quit smoking. It was so earnest, as if he were uncovering some sort of earth shaking scandal.
