Post-debate media depression

Post-debate media depression. “Immediately to my right was F. Chuck Todd, oblivious to all around him, talking on the phone. I heard him say, ‘Yeah, Obama’s numbers are collapsing.'” We wouldn’t put it quite that way – we’d probably say “YEAH!!! Obama’s numbers are COLLAPSING!!!”

    • November 6th is my Super Bowl. And just like the Super Bowl, I have that day off. AND being 6 hours behind EST, by the time I wake up, it'll be 1000 on the east coast!

  • In the words of McDonald's: I'm Lovin' it! And I am also praying to the Almighty on multi-time daily basis. and I believe his retirement plans include bugging me out here in Hawaii. But I'll gladly take one for the team if it means he and his team of imbeciles won't be bothering our country anymore.

    • well, maybe he'll go on a sight-seeing trip to kilaluea and an errant gust of wind will blow his skinny kenyan behiney into the fiery pit of burning sulphur.

      *kilaluea is an active volcano right?
      if not, it sure sounds like it is.
      HA just had a happy thot.: the kenyan gets arrested for usurpation, granted bail, flees to HI and Dog tracks him down. :D and then beth sits on him. can you say squish? he he he

  • It's not looking good for Obama, I hope he has some retirement plans. I'm sure there will be golf, parties at celebrities houses, and empty speeches. Wait! Isn't that what he does now? What are we paying this guy for?

    At any rate, gotta keep fighting till the polls are closed and keep a watchful eye on those counting the votes. Don't underestimate these people and their corruption, they are willing to do anything to stay in power, and the media is more than happy to help them.
