Anyone see the debate last night and notice McCain's "that one" comment?
From: Jackzilla Entered on: October 8, 2008 10:17 AM
I heard the commentators afterwords talk about it but I gotta say it didn't stick in my mind at the time.  I like the handshake dis in the video.  It reminds me of an old Letterman segment back on NBC when a GE exec avoided Dave's handshake -- Dave then proceeded to mention the "official GE handshake" on the show all the time. The debate itself?  Meh.  It felt like a re-run of the first debate!  Both of them just ignored the "town hall" questions and proceeded to recite their policy's on different topics like robots (sometimes hardly even related to the question asked).  I don't see it changing any ones opinions or effecting the polls one way or the other.

I caught that and the other stupid comment regarding hair plugs which I assume was a dig at Biden.

Worth a read:  NY Times editorial on McCain's campaign

Also, McCain is a douche for that $3M projector remark:

Another good editorial, this one about Palin and her comments about taxes being unpatriotic.  I couldn't agree with this guy more.  She is such an ignoramous... hell, we don't even have a word for a politician that's this clueless... Even if you thought McCain was across the board better than Obama, his choosing this simpleton should make you seriously consider Obama on the basis of this example of poor judgement alone.  But even so, no rational person could consider McCain better across the board, IMO. I read a good article in the Economist recently about how economists say Obama's economic plans are far superior to McCain's.  Even allowing for the fact that economists tend to be democrats, unaffiliated economists prefer Obama by a vast margin, and even Republicans prefer his economic plans too!  His nonsense during that town hall debate about "stabilizing the housing market" was just that: nonsense.  The government can't keep home prices from falling by buying up bad loans, come on!  Who is buying McCain's bullshit?

I thought McCain was a douche when he made that remark as well.

I just goes to the anti-intellectualism of the Republican Party.  Since when is funding science education something we scoff at?

The other day I saw a bumper sticker that said SARAH and below it in smaller font, McCain/Palin 08. It made me really wish we had a test that addressed basic history, economics, and civics as a prerequisite for voting.

Wow.  Olbermann skewers McPalin.
