Gold Coast Riding at World Transplant Games: August 20-21

So far the people here on the Gold Coast remind of a cross between people from San Diego and Texas. The food has been very impressive in Australia. The foods are freshed and it seem… Continue

Palin in book: McCain aides kept me 'bottled up'
The rumors are true, according to Sarah Palin: The McCain-Palin campaign was not a happy family. In Palin's new memoir, "Going Rogue," she confirms reports of tension between her aides and those of the 2008 Republican presidential candidate, Sen. John McCain.
