6. I think Biden pretty effectively killed "maverick" last night.
I can't imagine it'll come up again without a lot of embarrassment.

16. God bless Joe Biden.
After Biden listed all the ways in which McCain was NOT a maverick, I think that there was an instant in which Palin was about to use the word in her response and you could see it just stick in her throat. They will either put the word to rest now or beat us to death with it even more so as to "reclaim" it after the number that Biden did on it.

8. I would move the General up to #2.
I'm sure even he doesn't like being mentioned this much. Especially when things could turn on a dime and put his troops in jeopardy (even more).

13. "Straight Talk" or "Straight Talk Express"

19. Don't forget "free market", "heavy-handed government regulation", "shining city on the hill"
All need to be consigned to the Oblivion Vault.
