• Sloppy Seconds: What Happens to Julia Allison's Nipple Does Not Stay in Vegas

  An album recorded by the band Chicago in 1993 is finally being released. Finally! [CNN] PETA is PETA'd off (sorry, we had to) about that "real girls eat meat" t-shirt Jessica Simpson was sporting, and we actually happened to like. [dListed]  Confession: we didn't vote in the 2000 presidential election (even though we were old enough). Apparently, half of the people in our age group who voted in the primaries this year didn't vote in the 2000 primaries, either. See what happens when young people fail to vote? [MTV]  Read More...

• Hillary Can't Beat Obama, But She Can Vote For Him

  Hey, did you know that 89 years ago today, Congress approved the women's suffrage amendment before passing it onto the states for ratification? Neither did we. Thanks, Jezebel, for the history lesson.

• Obama Girl's New Crush

  We usually hate on Amber Lee Ettinger for using Barack Obama to get herself famous while not bothering to vote in the Democratic Primary.   Now we'll hate on her for making more videos that are not quite interesting but also not quite embarrassing enough to make fun of. Who is Obama's latest crush? Find out in the new Obama Girl video, after the jump... Read More...

• Sloppy Seconds: Hulk Hogan's New Girlfriend Sure Looks a Lot Like His Daughter

  The Daily Mail tries to make a size 16 beauty pageant contestant feel bad about herself. Luckily, they don't really succeed. [Jezebel]  If you're running for office, jerking off in public might not be the best idea. Even if you do live in California. [Wonkette]  50-Cent is so confused about which Democratic candidate to support. And he thinks Obama might get assassinated. [MTV]  Read More...

• You Can't Drink Beer, Look at Porn and Vote at Home; You Have to Drink Beer, Look at Porn Then GO Vote

  We're all for increasing voter participation, and you'd think most government officials would be, too. But not if it involves people voting online for Poland's former prime minister Jaroslaw Kaczynski, who isn't excited about a "young person sitting in front of a computer, watching video clips and pornography while sipping a bottle of beer and voting when he feels like it."

• Scanner Highs and Lows: We Like to Play Dress Up

  It's true, we like to put on high heels and feather boas and maybe, just maybe, we'll get dressed up to go to the theater. Read More...

• Obama Girl Didn't Vote

  Great. Yet another hot woman who has the backbone of a Paul Wolfowitz. According to an interview just published on City Room, Amber Lee Etinger was "too sick" to take the damn $2 PATH train from New York City to her poll site in Jersey City, New Jersey to cast a vote for the man who made her famous. Can anyone even approve that she's a Democrat? Maybe she was just a Republican operative who tried to embarrass Obama and saw the whole plan backfire.   Read More...

• Sleeping Off Super Tuesday

  Morning! We over slept because we were up most of the night waiting for the results to come in (and not watching LOST online, thank you very much). We fell asleep with public radio streaming on our laptop right next to our head and woke up to what we probably also dreamt about: politics. It's pretty much all we can think about today, so you know, send tips. And do tell, did you vote yesterday? Because we'll probably point and laugh and judge you harshly if you didn't. Unless you live in one of those states that didn't vote yesterday.  [Image via icanhascheezeburger.com]  Posted Feb 06 2008, 10:20 AM by Emily Farris with | with no comments Filed under: voting, oversleeping, public radio, sleepy

• Open Thread: Did You Throw Away Your Vote?

  Stop being so cynical. Just go and vote, damn it. And then come back and tell us what you saw, experienced, and had to put up with from people crazy enough to work for the Board of Elections. We're going to keep this thread open as long as it takes, people. Fight it out, talk it out, or just take it out on somebody else that things aren't going your way. And then let's all have angry sex tonight because we didn't get what we want: Chuck Norris, Vice President. UPDATE: Check out a somewhat full rundown of the winners, state by state, after the jump.  Read More...

• Report: Bill and Hillary Did It In A Voting Booth
