Even though they can't cast votes in November, artists around the globe are cranking out tunes in homage to the Democratic presidential candidate. Latin-Grammy-nominated Don Omar transformed Obama's surname into the upbeat Reggaeton song, "Como Se Dice," and collaborated with the Cuban band Yerba Buena and over a dozen other Latin stars on "Podemos Con Obama" ("We Can With Obama"). Jamaican crooners are particularly starry-eyed for the politician, with Tyrical's "The Obama Song," Cocoa Tea's "Barack Obama" and Mavado's "We Need Barack" (which mixes Obama's speeches with reggae beats). Grenada-born Calypso singer Mighty Sparrow is working on an entire album of Obama songs, following his hit "Barack the Magnificent."

This week's political ads covered a range of issues, from Barack Obama's connection with the Weather Underground's Bill Ayers to John McCain's support of veterans to Obama's position on gun rights. McCain's ads reflected his new strategy of focusing on Obama's character instead of the economy, while Obama's ads focused on McCain's latest proposals for healthcare and home mortgages.

Conservative bloggers are chuckling at "Gaffemaster" Joe Biden (and his "Gaffe Twin" Barack Obama) for a series of blunders the vice presidential candidate made today and yesterday. His recent statements on clean coal and the AIG bailout contradicted Obama's stances on the issues, and he mixed up some Depression-era history. Biden tried to clarify (and the New York Times backed him up), but one blogger says even his clarifications are to McCain's benefit. Another blogger wonders why Obama isn't keeping his veep in the know but thanks Biden for giving McCain such good material.

Recent ads released by Barack Obama and John McCain have set off an ad war between the candidates. McCain has released two ads tying Barack Obama to former Fannie Mae CEOs Franklin Raines and Jim Johnson. The Obama campaign says an E-mail proves that Raines is not an adviser, but the McCain campaign points to recent stories in the Washington Post to support its assertion. Conservative bloggers aren't happy about a Time blogger who says that McCain is playing the race card with the Raines ad (Raines is African-American) because of images in the ad and the omission of Obama's tie to Johnson, who is white. They point out that McCain has since released an ad about Johnson. For their part, the Obama campaign has released a Spanish-language ad, "Dos Caras," attacking McCain on immigration and linking the candidate to Rush Limbaugh.

Prior to today's vote, no one could seem to agree on whether or not the bailout bill (also known as the "crap sandwich" or "a cow patty with a marshmallow in the middle of it") should pass—not economic experts and not lawmakers, even those from the same party. President Bush urged Congress to pass the bill, but House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer had no predictions on whether or not that would happen. It didn't. Postvote, U.S.News bloggers discuss the implications of the vote and our Jim Pethokoukis says he's "not sure what Plan B is now." Liberal and conservative bloggers say the bill's failure could be a serious blow to the McCain campaign. They're also placing blame on anyone involved, from Nancy Pelosi (because of her "rant") to the House Republicans (guilty of "irresponsible folly") to the House Democrats (who have the majority but s

The recent rowdiness among McCain-Palin supporters at rallies has drawn more scorn from liberal bloggers today, who say that John McCain and Sarah Palin are encouraging these "festivals of hate" at which supporters call Obama a "traitor" and shout "Off with his head!" Other bloggers say the GOP campaign is "appalling" and wonder if the "toxic cocktail" of "hate, fear, and ignorance" will pay off come Election Day. TPM bloggers are outraged that McCain and Palin have not condemned the behavior of some of their supporters and say that the candidates are responsible for creating the hysteria. Michael Crowley at The New Republic reminds us that Democrats exhibited similar rage toward Bush in 2004. Ann Althouse says there's nothing wrong with "candidates attacking their opponents or crowds becoming enthusiastic.

Ron Suskind's new book claims that a 2001 letter supposedly written by the head of Iraqi intelligence to Saddam Hussein was forged by the White House. The letter supports the Hussein-al Qaeda link used to justify the Iraq war, but one blogger was more interested in another reference involving uranium shipped from Niger to Baghdad. Liberal bloggers aren't sure if the claim is true but say with relish that it doesn't look good for the White House. Suskind himself points out in the Huffington Post that "everything in the book is on record."
