HEY MC GRUMP: Lose the "Miss Congeniality" line
Does anybody else have to reach for the barf bag at the "I never was running for Miss Congeniality" "joke?" I swear I think he's used that 15 times at least.

First, it wasn't that funny to start with, second, he's overused it to the point of :eyes: third, it points out what a rude condescending ass he is and fourth it draws attention to the fact that his running mate lied about actually being Miss Congeniality!

4. Tweety and another pundit remarked last night that McBomb treated Obama
the way he treats the press. The other guy came back, "Everyone!"

That was pretty telling.

9. Yes, it's been a major topic on TV all day
Frankly, I thought McCain didn't quite pull it off and did himself no good for trying. The way he hunched away from Obama, he looked like Gollum. Then he tried to add the supercilious sneer, but ended up with a cheesy grin looking like a senile old bat who didn't know where he was but heard someone say to smile for the camera. As the cherry on top, he delivered that Beavis and Butthead snicker periodically.

As a 180 degree contrast, Obama came off as very open and real and genuine. He smiled that gorgeous 5000000 megawatt smile and the one or two occasions when he chuckled, it was real.

6. I think it was twice
When your running mate is a 2nd runner-up beauty pageant contestant, it's probably best not to remind everyone - not even once.
