This news made my day. Not because I support either party or candidate -because I do not-, but because of the hilarious consequences.

I've always said that the Democrats have a funny way of screwing things up in right before election. Apparently, the Republicans are following suit.

Also, I highly recommend that you view Jon Stewarts video which I posted yesterday, for added amusement.

RNC Picks Up $1 Million After Palin Speech

Sarah Palin’s speech to the convention Wednesday night energized conservatives, allayed concerns of some nervous party insiders – and inspired excited Republicans to donate a cool $1 million to the Republican National Committee’s effort to elect John McCain.

...

UPDATE: Bloomberg reported that Palin’s speech was even better for Democrats–Barack Obama has raised $8 million since Wednesday’s speech. “Sarah Palin’s attacks have rallied our supporters in ways we never expected,” Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton said. “And we fully expect John McCain’s attacks tonight to help us make our grassroots organization even stronger.”
