Neither party has a history of promoting a failed VP candidate. And Mrs. Palin is not really doing much good for herself in the media right now.

“Change” of all kinds will occur between now and then. I just hope it is not as drastic as some of the off the wall stuff I hear from dark corners. The whole planet is involved this time. Anyone wanna take bets as to whether Obama is the anti-Christ? We all know when he comes, he is not gonna be wearing horns, have a pointy tail and a pitch fork. He is going to be the prettiest thing this world has ever seen. Everyone will love him, as he will have almost everyone fooled. Like…………..Obama.

Last night it was the other way around.
The faces on the cable networks on both sides said it all.
Such a wasted opportunity. Sad…

“This debate format was a real town hall format the way the Salvation Army is an actual army.”

I couldn’t help thinking that myself.
They mentioned that they received thousands of questions from the audience and from the internet, but they ALL had to pass the filter of Tom Brokaw.

Michell Malkin gets some nice ones off once in a while. Her latest:
Who was the Obama plant at last night’s debate?
had the following …
————————————————-
**** ****** e-mailed me the answer:
“The Obama plant was Tom Brokaw.”

Har. Indeed. From my liveblogging last night:

Brokaw gets rolled again: “I’m just hired help here.”
Obama: “You’re doing a good job, Tom.”

Might as well have called him “sweetie.”

When telling someone they are not smart , it might behoove you to check the spelling of such a simple word as “your” in its proper context.

That’s insane.

You people have no idea how the ‘pubs have alienated the populace over the last 8 yrs.

Conservatives haven’t been conservative for a long, long time, and we are going to pay the price.

Paying it now, IMNSHO.

I think they watch for less esoteric cues. Do I trust this guys gut. Does he look like a president who will not sell me out. Our man wins hands down by that measure. forget the polls. I predict a landslide for Mac.Obama is just not ready, not this time,sorry.

A description of my impressions of the debate leads him immediately to accusations of “delusion”, namecalling such as “morons”, and pathetic attempts at pop culture diagnosis of one’s childhood – all without addressing a single issue that was made in my remarks?

I guess I should thank you for your contribution though, as you’ve just made my point regarding one reason for the potential undercounting of McCain votes in the presidential polls.
