My Debate Drinking Game is as follows:  If Obama brings up the Keating Five, I am going to get shithouse stinking drunk.

Keep your fingers crossed!

I'm already there

The entire Obama campaign since he ran for Illinois senate is a long excercise in Guerilla Marketing. At either his concession speach, or the inaugural he'll reveal that Axe Body Spray is responsible for his career and all the movie star bitches he's fucking.

How come all the debates so far are in the South?

Tom Brokaw is sitting on a fucking machine. You can hear his voice modulate as the dildo swings in and out.

I am grave, hear me roar

do you think Obama's human? He looks like a gray alien dipped in shit

THe wee leprechaun will use his pot o' gold to buy up mortgages

What makes this not fun: He is an old and sick man. He is not healthy, you can hear it in his breathing and wierd stiffness.

That's the Ibogaine kicking in. Wouldn't watch this shit if you chained me to a television.

Damn, sorry. Feel like I shit the bed.  O+'s commentary on the previous debate was a performance like nothing I've ever seen anywhere.

I was kind of dissapointed....   I was expecting McCain to studder and stammer and answer a question that wasn't asked and I was expecting Obama to toss a water bottle to some fainting woman....  Kind of failed on both of those...

I think you speak for America at large here.

Obama 89.2% to win by two furlongs.

I personally am planning to commit suicide, and i'm not kidding, so I don't fucking care who wins. Adios, motherfuckers.

McCain snubbing Obama on the handshake:

They're freepers, what do you expect, sense? The important thing to take from that thread is John McCain is 'saying one nice thing about a muslim' away from losing the election by the largest margin since Mondale 84. He has fucked the base. For these guys, who are more or less the Kos right wingers, he is anathema.

Heheh,

On CNN with one of those ridiculus focus groups of "independent undecideds" in after debate polling broken down by issue, Obama was far ahead in most except on war related foreign policy, clearly wiining the debate. On live camera only a few said they had made up their minds, then they were asked for a straw poll of who you would vote for right now. A show of hands was counted with 2/3s for McCain. Anderson Cooper and the anchors were visibly dumbfounded, almost stammering out loud about the disconnect of how they voted verses how they thought Obama did better on the debate issues.

As far as I can tell the guy who runs fivethirtyeight.com has about as sound a methodology as you can come up with (realizing that there may be no perfect methodology at all).  His day job is sports statistics.  Note that they're pretty close in the popular vote but once you break it down by electoral college votes it's not even close.

I don't see how anyone could think McCain did a good job . . . his comments were choppy, his concepts disjointed, with words and phrases cobbled together in a dadaist mosaic. Hair transplants? "That one?" Wtf?

At some point in the coming weeks, I expect his stiff arms to start flailing while he spins in circles, bellowing, "Danger Will Robinson! Earmarks! Maverick! My friends! Fundamentals!"

He made a legitimate point on Obama's plan would tax small businesses making $250,000 a year...that would be devastating to the job market/economy as a whole, your local Italian Restaurant easily makes $250,000 a year before paying off employees, building costs, and supplies.

He's falling apart.  I think Obama did a good job of not pushing hiim into a full-scale meltdown, which propably would have garnered from sypathy for the pathetic old bastard.

He did better than I expected, in fact I was disappointed in Obama this time he was clearly less comfortable than in Orator mode

We have a small business that makes even more than that.

I don't care. Tax the fuck out of me, just don't let that fucking asshole McCain anywhere near the Oval Office.
