  1. Couple thoughts that ran through my mind during the debate. Why did McCain feel the need to rub it in Dallas Cowboy fans that Arizona beat them? If he's trying to win independent voters across the country we all know that the Cowboys have a large national fan base. The Cardinals have almost no following. Some schlub who barely follows politics and decided to watch part of the debate could have been annoyed by that. Sure it's petty but we all know some people vote for the dumbest reasons. I just didn't see any pluses for McCain to mention that. Also, since when did wanting to have safe nuclear disposal equate to being an extreme environmentalist? That was a dumb thing to say.

  3. Also, I didn't realize Michael Chiklis was known as Joe the plumber.
  4. BTW, using an acronym like "RSO" is only effective when more than 1 person uses it.
  5. QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Oct 16, 2008 -> 07:56 AM) ...but as I saw him while Obama was talking I kept shaking my head. He came across poorly, IMO. So if McCain wins is that how he's going to conduct himself in front of world leaders he doesn't agree with? Smirking, rolling his eyes, etc. Not very presidential.
  6. A snippet from Andrew Sullivan's live blogging of the debate...that I completely agree with:
  7. I watched CNN for the first time (debate-wise). The split shot was not good for McCain. Rolled his eyes a few times and had a dear in the headlights look at one point. Definitely didn't help his cause.
  8. QUOTE (lostfan @ Oct 15, 2008 -> 03:40 PM) How the hell do you accidentally send out talking points? The only way you can do that is if you want to do it. No kidding. For a campaign that is described as a well-oiled machine I find it hard to believe that this was accidentally leaked.
  9. QUOTE (Cknolls @ Oct 15, 2008 -> 03:02 PM) middle class Definitely not something McCain will ever mention.
  10. QUOTE (lostfan @ Oct 15, 2008 -> 02:44 PM) Roland Martin is my boy.
  11. QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Oct 15, 2008 -> 01:56 PM) What are some good words for a drinking game? "My friends" if you want to get blitzed.
  12. Tonight’s 90-minute debate from Hofstra University, moderated by CBS’s Bob Schieffer, begins at 9:00 pm ET. The topic is domestic policy, and like at the first debate, there will be two-minute responses to questions with an additional five minutes of discussion. But unlike past debates, McCain and Obama will be seated at a table.
  13. And the Sacramento County's Republican Party website posted these before taking it down. Classy!
  14. QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 15, 2008 -> 01:37 PM) What's the format for this one. It better be improved from the last travesty. Both candidates sit at a table.
  15. QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Oct 15, 2008 -> 01:35 PM) To me, McCain is an outsider, he doesn't see America the way I do. And neither do the secessionist Palins.

  17. QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ Oct 15, 2008 -> 12:09 PM) Ok sorry didn't mean to let facts get in the way. You're correct McCain and his campaign started all this. So instead of proving Obama wrong they went ahead and started saying "he's not patriotic enough. He's got a funny name. You know, he doesn't look like all those other presidents on those dollar bills, you know. He's risky." Brilliant! And it's working so well too.
  18. When Obama was getting massive crowds in the primaries and in Europe the conservatives on here kept saying how it didn't matter. Apparently crowd size matters now.
