1. How ironic. The name of the show is what his VP nom can't do.

2. This Is Sad
He is the most nakedly ambitious politician I have ever seen...I have never seen such a disconnect between the man and the visage he is trying to create...

It's borderline sociopathic...

7. He Said That Being Mayor Of A Town With 9,000 People Is Preparation For The White House
Edited on Sun Sep-07-08 09:57 AM by DemocratSinceBirth
He also applauded Obama's work as a community organizer after his running mate belittled him for it in front of 40,000,000 people...

He's going on about how he's going to fix the mess he and his party created...

18. No Follow Up
McCane used it as segue to attack Obama for his lack of bipartisanship...

Total non-sequitur...

I had this argument in another thread...I think being stipid is an asset for a politician...

23. Surprisingly high number I think.
How could a black sit and listen to those veiled racist comments?

8. "This is the Party of Lincoln"... Really? Lincoln Would NOT Know It !!!
Standard reply and crutch to the fact that only 36 black delegates total at the RNC Convention.

16. Eisenhower wouldn't have known it either
They can't tie their selves to their leaders from 50 years ago let alone 140 years ago.

9. Now he is using his relationship with D-Evan Bayh as support...
He is grasping at straws.

22. McCain said that Palin was scheduled for "65 appearances", and FTN with Bob Schieffer
is the venue he's "strongly recommending" be her "first".

I guess they LOVE the softball questions Schieffer lobs at Republicans. Absolutely NOTHING about McCain's admitted 90 percent voting record in favor of Dubya's White House legislative agenda, in the face of McCain's absurd "change" platform.

Compare the "hardball" Tom Brokaw played with Joe Biden on MTP this morning.

24. Brokaw is a thorough Repuke. He will toss softballs at the GOP.
Brokaw ought to be on Faux News.

SOB should have stayed retired.

26. I Can Not Stress This Enough
I don't know if the story is apocryphal or not but it is instructive...


When Stevenson ran against Eisenhower a voter told him "all the smart people are voting for you" Stevenson replied "that's nice but I want to win."
