By holding the line on the economy, and by hammering Obama on spending, McCain showed himself very well last night. There will be no Obama dominance in debating – that ship has already sailed – and so what exactly is going to move Obama’s numbers up? We know the Bradley effect is inflating them as of now. Christmas is coming early this year, liberals.

EPIC FAIL! Check the poll numbers now! BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Depends on what you mean: in certain parts of Pakistan the federal government has simply never held sway. Al-Haq started Pakistan down a troublesome road.

Yeah, you know who he really ruined it for? His constituents. *raises hand*

BTW – anyone know if Pakistan was actually a failed state before Musharraf? I mean, Zia al-Haq was awful, but I didn’t think it was a failed state. It didn’t reach Somalia territory…

P.S. Ford almost won anyway. Pretty frightening.

Big Palin reveal coming Monday. Re: Anon. Will alert teh krew as it hits.

Be thankful you can’t see me drooling right now.
Anon delivers!
Goodbye Blue Monday!

I’m still waiting for the “wipe the floor” moment you liberals awaited with bated breath.

Much like I’m still awaiting that “hopeless mumbling retard without the guidance of his teleprompter” Obama I’ve heard so much about. You just don’t get it: McCain is LOSING with time running out, so a “draw” just isn’t good enough – he HAD to destroy Obama to up his tally. Destroy. As in, conclusively win EVERY debate. For Wet-Start, a draw = epic fucking fail. Personally, I didn’t even see a draw there – Obama didn’t bootfuck him into a coma, but he sure did win. Just remember: foreign-affairs is supposed to be McFail’s STRONG suit – the next debate may very well be his Waterloo.

I thought he looked damn near pathetic, rattling off rehearsed lines like a two-bit actor … & he just couldn’t resist slinging even MORE easily refuted bullshit, as well as casually spouting nutbar nonsense like “Krazy Obama’s gonna nuke Pakistan” or “I’ll freeze everything but wartoys & vet bennies” – either one of those dandies is like an antidote to drawing undecideds, which he needs badly now. Your hero screwed the poodle.

I can’t wait for Palin to debate the raging mouth of Joe Biden.

Uh HUH.

Trick Question: who’s smarter – you, or Palin?
If you get WHY that’s a trick question, A WINNAR IS U!!!

Whoever the guy on Bill Moyer’s show tonight is, he’s fucking fantastic.

I leave my arsehole, and all necessary integument thereto appertaining, to the Faculty of philosophy; let it be stretched upon a steel frame so that each New Year’s Day the senior professor may blow through it, uttering a rich fruity note, as my salute to the world of which I now take leave, in search of the Great Perhaps.

You really don’t need to see these things. Hell, the candidates don’t even need to really be there. We could pretend like they were there and let the gasbag bloviation afterwords determine the outcome just like we do now.

Methinks someone needs a hug …

or got one too many from their creepy uncle. Not sure which.

It’s like the sports team that sucks for a while, and then when they good, you just want them to shutout every opponent and ease your nerves.

But don’t worry, folks. Back down off the ledge.

This debate is a huge win if the pundits deem it a “tie” — this was supposed to be McCain’s night to shine, to show his bona fides, and put that young little whippersnapper in his place.

He didn’t, and the pundits are noticing. They’ll form the narrative on this, and it won’t be good for McCain.

Yes, I realize that we (or a few of us) thought Obama should pound McCain into the dais, but the fact is McPOW is a damn fine debater and loves to talk foreign policy. Pundits know this, so for Obama to stand toe-to-toe with the dude and come out totally unscathed … ?

Huge. Gigantic. Enormous.

Just watch — the narrative will be how Presidential Obama looked, and how McCain had to flail just to keep up (e.g. the “Obama-as-Bush” line toward the end).
