GravatarHi TOW!


GravatarObama is running out of states if you follow out a traditional model. Today, he expanded his buy into North Dakota, Georgia and Arizona in an attempt to widen the playing field and find his 270 Electoral Votes. This is a very tall order and trying to expand into new states in the final hours shows he doesn't have the votes to win.

Come back here! I'll bite you!

I'm growing Concerned, not about an actual loss, but about a narrower victory that will give Broder and Cokie something to hang their "It was a narrow victory! Obama must reach out to McCain" crap on. This makes me feel cocky again. Smells like desperation, sweat-and-pee soaked desperation.

GravatarHow Dumb is Sarah Palin?
The experts have ways to measure...

http://www.capitolhillblue.com/c...1#comment- 43385

Excerpt:
Having devoted over 30 years of my life to the practice of psychology, I was shocked
to discover the actual extent of Sarah Palin's diminished intellect, although hardly surprised
she is developmentally challenged. Her 83 full scale Wechsler I.Q. reported in her Wasilla
High School records was labeled Dull Normal at that time and, in fact, 83 was just slightly
above the range labeled Borderline Retarded ( 70-80 I.Q. ). Her SAT scores were also
similarly deficient,thus serving to confirm her sub-normal I.Q...

Today's Gallup tracking numbers would suggest that it will be very hard for them to make any kind of argument like that on Tuesday. I'm kind of bummed that it now looks like the presidency will be decided before my party guests even arrive. I just hope McCain's concession speeech is late enough that they're all there when we can drink my Four Vines Maverick zinfandel.


GravatarAll I can say is...

BOW DOWN!

GravatarSheesh, she just played along the whole way, didn't she. Either she's very dumb or ...

That's it. She's extremely stupid. No other explanation. Her staff is also not very on the ball at all, letting that call through. If these punks can play her like this, imagine how bad she'd get played by a real player like Putin.


GravatarWow. Just WOW. What a bunch of fucking idiots. Her staff didn't even take the time to VERIFY that she was actually receiving a phone call from the French president? This is a competent and well-run campaign that wants to govern our country? What next, Putin calling to say ICBMs are headed towards Wasilla? Oh dears, First Dude, I's not in Kansas anymore.
Major props to Canada. I knew watching all those episodes of SCTV during the early 80s would lead to greatness!!!


Gravatar Her 83 full scale Wechsler I.Q. reported in her Wasilla

Come to think of it, she didn't even grow up in Wasilla.


GravatarShe's dumber than Bush.

And that's no small feat.


Gravatar-A couple of more stump speeches from McCain where they bus in 6000 school kids to pad out the arena, and I think the repubs have a chance on Tuesday.

GravatarSarah Palin is not dumb, just profoundly narrow-minded and ignorant. Who knows, if she gets out in the world and learns a thing or two, she might even pull and Arianna Huffington.


GravatarWhat next, Putin calling to say ICBMs are headed towards Wasilla?

"You just turn them ICBMs around, Mister Putin, and point 'em at the fake America. Somewhere 'round the D.C. Metro area or that New York City place, you betcha! Just don't take out Bergdorf Goodman. Ya know they got a great designer maternity department and my girls just love that place!"

GravatarDr. Cornel West summed up Sarah Palin more eloquently than anyone else has recently: she has expressed little to no intellectual curiosity and that is what makes her unqualified. A leader must have some kind of curiosity to be effective.

in '07, she was asked about the Iraq War, and she said she hadn't thought about it. I thought it was a clumsy attempt to dodge the question, at first, but after watching her these last few weeks, I find it entirely credible that even as her seventeen year old son was (presumably) talking about joining the army, that she had not given any thought to the Iraq War.


Gravatarblerb - re "pulling a huffington" - I would welcome her. I did so when I was about 22 when Bush the elder was president.

Fucka buncha touch screens.


I guess it saves money, but as a Canadian, I've always thought that voting for everything from President to dog catcher all on the same day is far too cumbersome.

When Canadians have a federal election, they vote for one thing only, who'll their member of parliament will be.

Canadian ballots never get more complicated than this...
http://www.elections.ca/yth/ imag...mple_ballot.gif

You mark the ballot with a single "X".

Needless to say, hand counting is simple, and there no need for touchscreens or other error prone machines.

Presidential elections should have their own separate day, in my opinion.


GravatarcoughGeorgeWalkerBushcough

Exactly. All competent leaders have some curiosity about their own country and citizens. The majority of Republicans have none.


GravatarMmmkay. Now I think it's staring to rain in earnest. Time to get my chicken in the brine.


GravatarCharles Stross - And what does it mean to live somewhere utterly divorced from the Earth's seasonal cycle?

I may be sceptical about space colonization, but I'm an optimist about exploration. I'm fairly certain that at some point in the next one to two decades human beings will visit the moon again — this time for an extended duration stay, spending long months and possibly years in conditions as unfriendly as those any 19th century arctic explorer could have imagined. In two or three decades, there'll probably be a base camp on Mars; not a city, not a colony, but nevertheless a habitat of sorts (and one that will probably be occupied for years — the cost of going to Mars is so prohibitive that in this day and age a 48-hour excursion to raise the flag looks positively feckless).

What are their festivals and cycles going to be, those explorers who visit worlds where the sidereal year is something other than 31,558,149.540 seconds?

GravatarHey, I'll keep it open and pocket the coin.

"What Digby Said."

"Afternoon Thread."


"Oh. My!"


GravatarAnd he deserves it.

Yes, he really does. After Kerry's loss in '04 I was so glad for the community that I even bought Mr. A a CD from his amazon list.


GravatarAnd the rest of the family feels bad for him because?

He's nuts. Every time someone brings up the question of the money he collapses and must be hospitalized. Lawyers tell the rest of them that the court case would take an eternity and all the money would go to lawyers. So they all let him get away with it. Note that he lives like a miser and uses none of the money. He's an idiot savage in the financial markets but otherwise totally nuts.


GravatarI think that after the election, the media will return to it's more natural form. The news cycle will turn to substantive events, away from polls.

Atrios loves commenting on the media, he is good at it. He might need a break, but no way on the quitting.


GravatarNow we have 189 V.O. Now? During the week we could hardly break a hundred. Saturday evenings used to be slow.


GravatarSeven years of blogging full time might be quite enough for him.

GravatarFor anyone who cares, next Saturday on PBS (local PBS anyways) will be broadcast, taped live, of "Dark Side of the Moon". Must have been done recently considering the age of the band.

GravatarWaPo/ABC tracking poll has Obama's lead holding at 9, 53-44. The only thing tightening up is McCain's window of opportunity to win, as only 7% of the voters now say that they could change their minds on their choice.

Meanwhile, Sarah Palin thinks it's perfectly natural that the French president would comment on his wife's performance in bed while Sarah compliments him on having such a great family.

GravatarJesus H. Christ. I used to think Eagleburger was one of the decent Republicans

And if I have given the flim-flam artist Barack Obama some success with this, I am deeply apologetic. I did not intend it.
In fact, if you look at this carefully, on the question of experience for example, Sarah Palin has been a governor, she has executive ability, she knows energy issues. Now you tell me what Barack Obama has ever done in the way of executive business, doing anything in the executive field. He has been in the Senate for some two years and he has been there half of the time and seldom votes on issues.


I thought this was some kind of parody at first.

i wouldn't say Guitar Hero III is an RPG, its an music video game developed by Neversoft published by Activision and RedOctane.

Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock retains the same gameplay as the other games in the series. The player uses a special guitar-shaped controller to simulate the playing of rock music by playing in-time to scrolling notes on-screen. Guitar Hero III includes a new cooperative career mode and "Boss Battles" against both in-game characters and other players; the game is also the first in the series to allow for online play for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Wii versions. The game features over 70 total songs shipped on disk, many of which, in contrast to previous games, are master tracks. The Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions also feature the ability to download additional songs. Several musicians appear in Guitar Hero 3, including Tom Morello (of the bands Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave) and Slash (of the bands Guns N' Roses and Velvet Revolver) as in-game characters. The PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 versions also include Bret Michaels (of the band Poison).

Phil Specter received an award in the UK for his years of contribution to rock music. During the presentation, reference was made to claims by conservative Christian groups that watching the Spice Girls perform is like seeing a porno film.

Phil's reply was, "The difference between the Spice Girls and a porno film is that the porno film has better music."

GravatarOMG! Too much, just too much. Sarah, Sarko, and Carla ... If the pranksters had chosen to bring Carla in on a three-way, I do believe Palin wouldn't been down with ce chose la. And Johnny Halliday too! What an ignorant woman have we in the comely Governor. Devastating. I'll be McCain would like to throttle her with his bare hands. Who needs SNL tonight? Pure gold. And no more talk about pee, please. Tedious.
