Cynics Party: Debate Wrap Up

  • ManchuCandidate · 1 year ago
    Debates weren't really Barry's strong suit from what I remember of the Demrat debates. From what little I saw, PG definitely amped up his rather large inner asshole. This debate was allegedly his strong suit. Won't get better especially as a lot of folks were blaming PG for the failure of the first attempt at a bailout package.

    Talibunny's going to be hilarious. I don't expect much from her, but I also don't expect her to shine. Getting beat by the marshmellow journo Katie Couric is like losing to the Washington Nationals (although Mets fans will disagree with me.)

    Cogent, and to the point, Greg, but 100 percent wrong. The people who laugh at witty remarks have already made up their minds in this election. The "undecideds" are a bunch of bubble-headed 20- to 60-something moms and grampaws who HATE smartasses. Watch the CNN Marvin Monroe meter. Every time either candidate went after the other, the independents dropped sharply in their approval. Even when they went after BUSH, it dropped. Teh Independents want a sense that Daddy is going to make it all better, and Hopey did a solid job at acting like the Nice Daddy last night. McCain stayed in their as the mean grampaw, which has appeal to them, too, but nobody but the wiseasses thinks this debate was anything but a big win for Obama (CNN web voting was 75-25 Obama). He went in with a lead, and I betcha in a couple days, he'll have opened that lead up by another point or two.

    I'm going to be a complete jackass and say that the Independents need to be drawn and quartered for the good of the republic.

    Anybody know if Gov. Palin has gotten back to Katie Couric yet with all those examples of Sen. McCain taking the lead on enforcing regulations on business? Didn't think so.

    No, rptrcub, it's the Republicans that need to be extirpated, root and branch.

    Wha' happened? Where are the cynics? Why is everything baby shower pink and blue around here? Where are my Cynics?

    @SFL: I know -- what's up with those colors? It makes me want to flee before i'm forced to sit around for 2 hours with no booze pretending to coo over teeny little outfits and stuffed animals.

    Wait, you mean baby showers don't have booze? Who thought up that clever idea?

    When it stopped being OK to drink when you're pregnant, the hormone enraged dry-drunks started denying their friends alcohol at the miserable occasion. Seems unfair, since they are getting presents.
