McStain fucked himself with that attitude.
Acting like you're the smartest guy in the room tends to alienate people.
Particularly when you're NOT the smartest guy in the room and everyone knows it but you.
I think Obama broke the old guy, and on his "best" subject.
The other debates are gonna be a beatdown. You can't coach "respect"
It's crowded on the bases this morning.
Republicans always choose Narcissists with Delusions of Grandeur to lead their party. These people are easily manipulated...see also Palin and GWB

From below... over at FDL, Ned Lamont remembers Paul Newman.
I esp. liked this part about Lamont asking Newman to do a "robocall":
...He wrote something up and then called around Connecticut, pretending to be a robocall and judging the reaction. He called back with the results: a couple of no answers, two answering machines, and one guy who shouted, "Hey Marge, there's some kook on the phone pretending to be Paul Newman."
Pathetic rewhore. Who doesn't love great sex ?

McCain's attitude = Gore's sighs.
good newz needs report:
today gallup out...obama gains another point:
"These results, from Sept. 24-26, are almost entirely based on interviewing conducted before Friday night's first presidential debate. This suggests Obama was moving into a slightly better positioning as the two met in Mississippi to debate foreign policy matters and the economic crisis. The five percentage point lead for Obama in today's update is one of his best in recent weeks, just short of the six-point advantage he had in Sept. 17-19 polling."
also, rasputin today has him at a historical hi8gh and lead, 50-44.
mcstunty is a bitter, erratic, mean old fart.
If there is another debate between McCain and Obama--who knows, perhaps the bird flu will suddenly be declared a crisis that only McCain can fix by suspending his poll numbers--then y'all must add to your drinking games the phrase "doesn't understand."
On CNN, bald Ali hosting a repuke who says we shouldn't get involved in "socialism", i.e., put any conditions on the bailout. His opponent says, "Who won World War II?" When the repuke finally realizes he's talking about FDR and the New Deal, the repuke immediately asks, "If that's such a good idea, why did the Soviet Union fail?"
Duh. Nothing like following the thread of an argument.
ooops I owe Dave a beverage, it seems
McStain got his ass handed to him last night.
No matter how the trolls and pundits try to spin it, he lost and lost badly.
Gore's sighs made sense now that we know how dumb Dumbya is. There's no excuse for McCain's rude behavior.
The five percentage point lead for Obama in today's update is one of his best in recent weeks, just short of the six-point advantage he had in Sept. 17-19 polling."
So we taking wagers on the bump Obama will get after the VP debate?
And in a few years, we will be promoting the candidacy of someone who said they won't vote for the bailout..arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
where is the lesson learned.
McSlime just dripped petty sneering contempt. He really is the mean old weird guy who comes out on the porch in his boxer shorts screaming at the kids to get off his lawn.
But sighing is a sign of disrespect. I thought Gore, who I voted for, was somewhat rude in doing it and so did a lot of other people. It was unnecessarily snotty just like McCain's nasty attitude.
It matters not if it was understandable in retrospect. It was rude and condescending at the time it happened.
Seriously, "We won in Iraq." That's what they think McTaint's strong point was? Gimme a break.

Apologies for the repeat blogwhore, but over at Box Office I sing the praises of a way cool new DVD of horror movies from Fox, including one with the great J.

Which Tweety totally understands because Obama seems "a little bit too proud of his own bearing".
So that's what they're saying about uppity niggers these days. How modern.
Matthews also had the marvelous comment that Obama refrained from being "ethnic", which he explained as referencing the experiences of black people in America. After all, that is what "proud" (i.e. uppity) black people will do, in Matthews' mind.
On Fox News , everyone was of the opinion that Senator McCain won the debate. Even the liberals Nina Easton of the Boston Globe and Juan Williams of the far left NPR thought McCain won the night. Fred Barnes also thought McCain won, though there were no good sound bites to be replayed

It should be downhill from here for McCain. Obama should be less obsequious and tar and feather McCain over his associations, including Phil Gramm and Charles Keating.
Now to the other extreme you're tending --
Don't be so deucedly condescending!
I think he was attempting to unleash the 'angry black man.' But, happily, Obama didnt take the bait. It was McCain who looked angry and constipated and pinched up all night.

I agree with her. THe first few times, it was an effective way to defuse what McTaint just said and steer the subject to one Obama wanted to talk about. But he overdid it by using it too many times.
Even the liberals like Sheena Easton of the Boston Globe and Andy Williams of the far left NPR thought McCain won the night.
--
I never liked that rock 'n roll stuff.
"Fred Barnes also thought McCain won, though there were no good sound bites to be replayed"
McCain also "won" because there were too many good sound bites being replayed from the Couric/Palin interview. (And I'm sure Fred Barnes probably agreed with McCain that the "fundamentals of the economy" were strong 2 weeks ago.)
Mrs. Moe says that Obama shouldn't have kept prefacing his rebuttals with "John is right..."
Actually, there's some polling and ancedotal evidance that such deference was mature and more presidential...and it was noted that McCain was a whining snit who never returned the favor.

I love it when morans describe NicePoliteRepublican radio as far-left.
The one thing McCain did (which I thought was was good) was tell history stories. I'm used to Obama telling history stories. Obama needs to make his policy decisions digestible for
the uniformed with history bits.
For example, he could tell a story about how lax standards overseas have hurt us at home (toxic pet food, toys, jalapeno peppers, etc.). Also, he could talk about how agencies have been stripped of oversight capabilities (bad meat, salsa, spinach, etc.) and how that hurts the 'good' growers/food packagers in America.
He could talk about the Constitution and how Bush/McCain worked to shred it.
He could talk about the history of gas prices and why gas companies have record profits.
He could talk about the disasters of deregulation (Enron, S&Ls and today's situation)
There are numerous opportunities for Obama to connect with the voters over day to day issues which have impacted them personally. Just
about everyone has either a energy deregulation story, a bad toy story, a toxic spinach/jalapeno story, a bad pet food story, a mortgage story, a bank collapse story and/or a gas story. If they
heard the history behind these stories, they would be moved.

Oh, yeah. Annie's Annuals and Perennials does!

As I called it last night, Obama did what he needed to do: show people who don't know him that he is smart, calm and that he cares. He succeeded.
As for Mr. Magoo: bwahahahaha
"Is that a bottle of Percocet in your pocket, or are you just glad to see me?"

Our Armed Forces still give servicepeople amphetamines, it's not at all far-fetched to think McCain's doctors may be giving them to him.
McCain looked jittery like he's on f'n amphetamines. I seriously think he has to be on one to be able to handle the campaign hours and pressure at his age.
Nah. If Blinky McGee did an iota of speed, his aged heart would explode.
He's simply filled with rage.
McCain's condescention might have worked if he was debating school desegregation in the 1950s or whether Jackie Robinson should be allowed to play Major League Baseball.
Joe Biden really will be challenged not to pick on Gov. Palin. Every time she opens her mouth something mindstoppingly stupid drops out.
Not to mention whatever that load is in her swimsuit. I've seen the swimsuit competition video and there's some mighty strange things going on in that suit. Maybe it because I'm from SoCal and it's hard to find a moose hunter in a bathing suit on the beach in El Segundo.

Maybe he'll shatter his disgusting yellow teeth implants during one of the debates.
BTW, Electoral-Vote notes:
When John McCain suddenly suspended his campaign this week and flew to Washington to broker a deal to keep Wall St. afloat, he said he would not debate Barack Obama unless there was a bill to solve the credit crisis. There is still no bill but McCain ate his words, flew to Mississippi, and debated Barack Obama at the University of Mississippi anyway last night.
Joe Biden really will be challenged not to pick on Gov. Palin. Every time she opens her mouth something mindstoppingly stupid drops out. How can he, of all people, just bite his tongue?
If they are obviously stupid and incoherent, then no response is necessary. He just has to let it lay there.

ellroon, Obama/Biden 08
I was amused by the guy who figured out pretty quick that maybe, just maybe, his face shouldn't be on camera for this.
For the most part it was cruel...hey, let's keep prompting her about the "a-rabs" cutting off heads again and again--and post it!
However, I will point out that, unlike McCain, even in her most drunken slurred state, she knew that Spain was our ally.
You know what's sad? McCain still held his own better than Bush in 2000 and 2004, and he wasn't using an earpiece.
At least his positions, regardless of whether or not we agree with them, were his own.
While I can't say that McCain won the debate, I was impressed with his stamina and determination to fight Obama, even though it kind of broke my heart that he tried to rely on being a POW at the end. All McCain has IS his POW history, and that was 40 years ago. But, as pathetic as that is, it's still more than Bush had in 2000 & 2004.
When you condescend towards an intelligent, poised person in command of himself, his rhetoric and the facts, who doesn't respond either in kind or with a sense of injury, you've belittled yourself. This is the lesson most folk learn in the middle school yard, dealing with bullies. There's nothing more pathetic than watching a bully persist in bullying someone who won't be bullied.
as for Obama holding his own in a foreign policy exchange - when he blew up mcreepy's "the surge, the surge" thing that was the blow that still resonates - wrong on the war a clueless millionaire when it comes to the economy - I think there are white supremacists changing their minds about who they are voting for.
McCain's condescention might have worked if he was debating school desegregation in the 1950s or whether Jackie Robinson should be allowed to play Major League Baseball.

McCain's smirking contempt reminded me so painfully of Bush. Surely we as a nation are tired of being represented by such immature and boorish behavior. We need a grown up in the White House for a change.
It was the first time the brainwashed and undecideds got to actually see Obama interact with one of their own. Perhaps it would have been too over the top to see a black guy kick Geritol's ass.

I think the 'radio approach' actually matters here, because I'm not sure how many people could focus on that STROBING TIE.
Yes, the impression was that McAnus really doesn't like Obama. Thinks he's uppity. And this absolutely goes back to the 2006 spat over ethics reform, right down to the asymmetric 'John' vs 'Senator Obama'.
"Uppity" dogshit.
Project Runway is one of the good "reality" shows, in that it focuses on actual talent.

ql-- the bars here were segregated by gender until the 1970s. There was just one place here in town that women could go, it was called "the ladies beverage room," or LBR. Women could go alone, or bring in a male date, but otherwise men weren't allowed unescorted.
Some of the older bars still have problems with women. One quite popular bar had to build a women's wash room back behind the kitchen-- women have to walk through the kitchen to go to the bathroom. Lots and lots of places still have women that come around and take the food order, and men take the drink order.
Bonjour!
THAT'S entertainment:
Capitol Hill sources are telling me that senior McCain people are more than concerned about Palin. The campaign has held a mock debate and a mock press conference; both are being described as "disastrous." One senior McCain aide was quoted as saying, "What are we going to do?" The McCain people want to move this first debate to some later, undetermined date, possibly never. People on the inside are saying the Alaska Governor is "clueless."

McCain was seen as the more negative of the two—by 7 points before the debate and by 26 points after. The audience did not like it when he went after Obama for being "naïve" or used his oft-repeated "what Senator Obama doesn't understand" line. When the two clashed directly in the second half of the debate, with Obama repeatedly protesting McCain's characterization of his statements or positions, the voter dials went down. Voters appear to have judged McCain too negative in those encounters and Obama more favorably.

afternoon, again. granted this is on the corner but Rich Lowry sez a bailout "deal is shaping up" and boy does it sound awful:
Treasury purchases plus mbs insurance (cantor)
Strong oversight/taxpayer protection
Limits on executive comp
No liberal add-ons (acorn, bankruptcy judges, proxy access)
Govt equity stake likely to be scaled back or dropped. No staff-level enthusiam for it.
Limit on amount of first tranche of money (less than $700 billion)
This deal gets 100 house gop votes

I have told the Administration and my fellow Senators that any plan has to contain the following elements:
• Executives must be held accountable and their compensation must be limited, including the elimination of golden parachutes and claw-back provisions if performance does not match previous pay;
• Taxpayers must be protected and the Treasury must demand warrants and other forms of equity from financial institutions that participate;
• Substantial oversight by outside agencies including the Government Accountability Office and Inspectors General must be built in to ensure accountability; and
• Conflicts of interest and contracting rules must be enforced.

Unless you have to campaign to be in orange juice commercials.
In addition, the plan should be expanded to include substantial measures to end the foreclosure crisis and stabilize housing prices. This includes:
• Expanding government efforts to restructure mortgages it owns through FDIC, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac;
• Expansion of the recently passed HOPE for Homeowners plan to let FHA refinance families into affordable mortgages; and
• Allowing more mortgages to be restructured under judicially supervised loan modification procedures so that people who can afford to keep their homes and pay their mortgages are able to.

I was in Chicago in 1978. They dumped snow into the lake until they couldn't get to the lake any more, then they started hauling it out to an abandoned quarry in Elmhurst, south of the airport.
The following July, there was still snow in the bottom of the quarry.
I hear they get tree-breaking icestorms in Montreal, though, in addition to the snow. That's something that was never much of a problem in Chicago.

During the debate, Senator McCain hammered at Obama's "naivete" about foreign policy. Didn't he realize he had nominated for Vice President someone who isn't "naive" but is even more woefully "ignorant" about foreign policy, and who is a heartbeat away from himself who as a 72-year-old President who has had four operations for cancer? I call that hypocrisy, don't you?

Pat Lang on "John is right"
In that context, the fact that Obama was willing to acknowledge those points where he agreed with McCain struck me as gracious, not weak. As Pat Lang said: "
"There will be those, like the oaf Chris Matthews, who will think that McCain's attitude shows him to be a leader. I think it shows that he was not raised well. His refusal to look at Obama throughout the debate, his dismissive tone of voice when continually speaking of Obama in the third person as though he were not there, his inability to say anything good about his opponent, all showed him to be a natural bully or someone who has been taught to be a bully."
Personally, I thought Tweety was saying pretty much the same thing about McCain, that he was obnoxious and a bully. But I do so love to se Tweey called an "oaf".

The word that McCain used, "festooned," last night, continues to crack me up.

Well it goes to show what I know. My impression was that McCain won. He did do better than I'd expected him to do. But obviously, more people saw it differently than I did. I'm really looking for Obama to clean McCain's clock when they discuss domestic affairs.
I did think Lehrer sucked.

Hah, that reminds me of the old George Carlin routine where he demonstrated that no candidate could say "judicial system" without sounding drunk.
I always thought 'gubernatorial' was a hilarious word. Why not just 'governatorial'? It's like saying 'peckerdential' instead of presidential.

That was Dana Carvey.
The postgame from my local fishwrap says it all: 30 Repubs at party HQ thought Magoo had won. 200 Obama supportes at a pizza parlor thought Obama had won.
200 beats 30
I think McCain did well, too, but he's against the shifting sands right now.
And, as Obama's ad said, not once did he mention "the middle class" last night.
Not. once.
I do think that Obama was more prepared than McCain, but McCain was solid on foreign policy.
Independents broke for Obama last night by substantial margins, according to all of the polls, cites, and sites I've looked at.

Hecate Johnson is right!
I was very disappointed in Lehrer and that silly shit he did at the beginning trying to force the candidates to talk to one another. Na ga da.
I didn't see anyone clearly winning, mostly they stuck to their points that we've heard for months now. McW came close to losing his cool a few times, and definitely some meanness in his voice, though.

I agree with that part.
Well it goes to show what I know. My impression was that McCain won.
Those who heard it on the radio thought McStain won. Those who saw it on TV thought Obama won. Those who ignored it completely are still undecided.

Well, maybe I just expected him to do a lot worse, but my impression was that he landed some punches on Obama and that Obama missed a lot of opportunities to bloody McCain. By the end I was yelling at him that, distasteful as he may find it, and although I was sure his grandmother brought him up not to do things like that, at some point he really was going to have to actually go over and hit that weak old man in the nose.
But I guess it just shows why Obama's the candidate and I comment on blogs, because most people, esp. the "undecideds" thought Obama won.

It's probably because I used to judge a lot of high school debate, but I scored very few points for McTaint, and several boidy slams for Obama.
Just a few I recall of the top of my head:
- corporate tax rates highest in the world -> turned around, actually among the lowest when loopholes are counted, and McCain's legislative history supported the loopholes
- Obama should have visited Iraq/Afghanistan as he had subcommittee responsibility -> turned around, McCain should know that Biden Obama's VP is the chair of the full Committee, and subcommittee didn't hear these. McCain then had a senior moment and tried later to repeat this argument when he forgot he'd already lost it.
- I've got a stupid bracelet -> neutralized, I have one too
Going to a local campaign event here in a little while. We won't be able to deliver Bama for Obama, and we won't be able to boot Sessions out of the Senate, but maybe we can keep our congressional seat.

No tattoos here.
A couple of my piercings were quite painful, though. Not so much "prolonged" as "euphoria-inducing" sort of thing.
I missed some of the visuals because I stupidly agreed to liveblog the thing. Did McGrumpy manage to get through the night without that creepy smile. I didn't notice that he got past the half-creepy version.

So, is McCain's campaign still suspended so he can spend all his time working on the financial crisis? Did it end while I wasn't looking or what?
Did McGrumpy manage to get through the night without that creepy smile..
No. Every now and then he'd look over at what I presume was Cindy and uncomfortably force a silly smile, like a little boy appearing in a school play or recital.

Can I ask you if it was a 'Campaign for Change' office or a local county, city, or whatever Dem office?
McCain did lie a lot last night.
BTW, I went over to the Hillary rally (it's just up the hill here and over the river), and I couldn't get in!!! Too many people were in line. Went before the doors opened, too!
So I suppose this is a good thing, for both Hillary and Obama!

I fell prey to the same thing as Echidne...assumed that McCain had done a good job of getting his talking points across, while Obama was stuck struggling to get actual reality across to people. Also, I felt like anything short of a total rout benefited McCain.
Today, I think I was wrong, and I'm glad. Still won't relax 'til I see McCain polling in the low twenties, though.
Funny. Biden is on CNN on my teevee right now and he's kicking butt on McSlimes' health care scam.

Thank you, I'd appreciate it. That is how we were in the beginning. It is much easier for it to be a local Dem office. The local Dems were looking for someone to tell them what to do. The Campaign was waiting for them to offer. It was/is frustrating as hell. It certainly is better for the local Dem party for it to be their office, and the campaign doesn't mind, they want to help locals, but they don't wait for long.
On the other hand all of the 'McCain offices' I've seen are local Republican offices.

A few more points that Obama clearly won:
- Diplomacy is for wussies and its dangerous to talk unconditionally -> even Bush agrees his nondiplomacy has been a disaster now, and your advisor Kissinger agrees with me we have to speak unconditionally with Iran -> I didn't mean all diplomacy, just when the President does it, and I've known Kissinger for 300 years -> *laughs* well, we'll see what the record shows grandpa
- Obama wants to raise your taxes and I'd like to know what he thinks rich is -> that's a lie and you know it, if you're in the bottom 95% you'll pay the same or less under my plan
- Earmarks bad! -> 300 billion in tax cuts for the rich bigger than 18 billion in earmarks -> Earmarks bad! -> did you not hear what I said, grandpa?
Even McCain's ads are lame!

It was a pun on lying.
I thought it was a wash, but McCain's condescending rictus didn't help him at all with my grandma.

We don't have a link (there may be one at AA). We heard it ourselves. She was interviewing the co-author of "Shooting War" last night and she said, in all seriousness, that she expects McCain will win the election. And followed it with, "I know that will make a lot of heads explode out there."
She was right. We were in the car at the time, and almost swerved off the road.

Wonder if their mail clerks have all quit?
It was/is frustrating as hell.
It's been VERY frustrating trying to find someplace local just so I can buy a fucking button. You can't find local offices on the Obama site (if someone can, tell me the secret!). I'd say it's possible there just isn't a local office, but this IS the San Francisco Bay Area. I know they JUST opened one on the border of Oakland and Berkeley about two weeks ago.
The buttons I got today I have NOT seen on the Obama website. They also had t-shirts. And then, of course, the lawn signs.
For future reference, national campaigns should NOT be putting all their campaign eggs in one internet basket. I wanna walk in someplace and buy a button and walk out wearing it. I don't want to wait three or four weeks to get it in the mail (or, in the case of MoveOn, NEVER FUCKING GET IT PERIOD!)...

I thank you, and wish to stress that I mean no insult to grub-larval Americans.
Just say no to the bailout
the fucking goopers are trying to blame it on CRA -- this is the last Bush money grab.
" Republicans are especially insistent that none of the bailout money be passed through the liberal low-income housing group known as ACORN, which had activists on Capitol Hill this week. They also are pinning the roots of the subprime crisis on an expansion of the Community Reinvestment Act by the Clinton administration that required banks to lend money to people with shaky credit, designed to prevent banks from "redlining" poor neighborhoods by refusing loans.
Even with all the changes that both parties want and the administration has agreed to - such as requiring that taxpayers get an equity stake in bailed out companies, limiting executive pay and doling out the money in installments - it will take an all-out effort by both parties' leaders to pass the bailout."

You are Canadian, no? In this campaign there is no such thing. A volunteer is invested in the campaign and will crawl to the polls on election day. They want everyone to volunteer. The chum goes to volunteers and people off of the street are asked for a donation.
There have been some mistakes made and dave had a good idea but overall I have been impressed. Remember they are schooling an entire generation to understand organizing, not an easy task.
With little more than a basic grasp of the complex financial issues at issue and having only a limited understanding or awareness of world events, the swinger is going to look to the candidates' tone, confidence, and fighter instinct, among other qualities that are assessed on the visceral, rather than intellectual, level.
In this regard, McCain came in like a charging bull, a scrapper, yet, improbably, showed himself -- unfortunately-- to be polished, steeped in historical context, and even steady.
Democrats have a majority in the house and senate and oppositon universally loathed by 70% of the country and they can't get what they want....
Anyone going to be looking for the unexplainable bulge on Palin's back Thursday? I wonder what type of crash course she's on this week. They're taking a knife to a gun fight.
Republicans seem to chose empty-headed grinners you could have a beer with to run for president: Reagan, Bush, McCain, Palin. These rubes then get taken over by their handlers who actually do the work of ruling.
In the meantime the country has gone down the tubes:too much time spent drinking with these boobs has turned the country into an alcoholic's den of barroom brawls.. And all that money spent on booze has now bankrupted us.
