Palin Hates Science
The retort:
[S]cientists at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine have shown that a protein called neurexin is required for..nerve cell connections to form and function correctly.
The discovery, made in Drosophila fruit flies may lead to advances in understanding autism spectrum disorders, as recently, human neurexins have been identified as a genetic risk factor for autism.

Kids say the Darndest Things
And then on a personal level, I’ve heard from 2 different friends with very young children being raised in, ahem, more homogeneous areas of the country who have taken to calling any black strangers Obama.

Obama Conspiracy
In the real world, Barack Obama seems like he’s going to be elected President. This, as unlikely as it might have seemed as little as two years ago, is easily explained: the Republicans have done a poor job running the country, have a very unpopular incumbent President, and our nation likes to switch parties about every 8 to 12 years. Plus, Obama is a charismatic politician who’s run a very competent campaign.
Nonetheless, this reality is intolerable to some, and they have created an alternative narrative. In this narrative, Obama is “a Marxisant radical who all his life has been mentored by, sat at the feet of, worshipped with, befriended, endorsed the philosophy of, funded and been in turn funded, politically promoted and supported by a nexus comprising black power anti-white racists, Jew-haters, revolutionary Marxists, unrepentant former terrorists and Chicago mobsters.” Once elected, presumably, will reveal himself to be the monster that he is, in the manner of Kang and Kodos in that classic 1996 Treehouse of Horror episode of The Simpsons.
If you want to take a look at their reasoning, I recommend the work of Stanley Kurtz over at the National Review. But what I’m most interested in is the unstated but necessary conditions for all this to be true:

Zombie Killing Tools
For fighting larger-scale zombie outbreaks in the open field, there is no finer tool than the Zombie Tools Two-handed Apocalax. The extra double-fisted heft of this girl gives her devastating striking power, while a carefully tapered blade reduces tip weight for a speedy return—just the action you need for dispatching a horde of undead bitches* under pressing time constraints. Like all Zombie Tools blades, the Apocalax is cut from 5160 spring steel, hardened, tempered, and expertly sharpened. The 14-inch handle is hand-sculpted from T6 aluminum and lightly textured in a ferric chloride acid bath for a firm grip and bonus style points. Why merely survive the Apocalypse when you can thrive?

Many Holes in Disclosure of Nominees’ Health
Fifteen days before the election, serious gaps remain in the public’s knowledge about the health of the presidential and vice-presidential nominees. The limited information provided by the candidates is a striking departure from recent campaigns, in which many candidates and their doctors were more forthcoming.
In past elections, the decisions of some candidates for the nation’s top elected offices to withhold health information turned out to have a significant impact after the information came to light. This year, the health issue carries extraordinary significance because two of the four nominees have survived potentially fatal medical problems that could recur.

McCain Portrays Himself as Buffer to Congress
This is the strategy that should worry Democrats more than anything else. Independents are much more likely to prefer a checked congress than a rubber-stamp one - especially one as unpopular as Pelosi and Reid’s (ugh.)
Rather than try to drum up support for lagging congressional Republicans, the McCain campaign appears to be trying to use their vulnerability to his advantage, asking voters to imagine Democrats with unchecked powers.”The idea of Sen. Obama checking Pelosi and Reid is really a stretch,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R., S.C.), a close friend of Sen. McCain. “People like checks and balances.” He said this idea will be an essential piece of Sen. McCain’s closing campaign.
