Barack Obama Elected President!

[Toups]

Can someone briefly explain to me how this $700 billion bail out is going to help? From an knowledgeable person (me), it seems like, "Hey, no matter how bad things get, we will always come to the rescue." How is this going to teach others to not do the same thing if they're going to be bailed out anyway?

Let me just say I was totally wrong about saying palin was the better vp choice than biden, I think I said this like 2 or 3 weeks ago. After seeing Pallin's interviews with Couric, Gibson, and meeting with press by herself this woman just really needs to be quiet. Almost everything that comes out of her mouth seems dumb somehow. JM really needs to coach her about meeting with press and doing interviews, oh wait he's not much better. Those two are two peas in a pod and they really do complement each other. I'm sorry but people that are really considering voting for McCain really need to ask themselves are you really okay with pallin being president if god forbid something happened to McCain? McCain is 72, hot tempered, and has a history of cancer, so his health is an issue.

I haven't fully watched the debate, but the snippets that I have seen makes obama look like the winner.

I'm okay with the bailout if none of the CEO's of these companies get any money and people that have had to leave their homes because of not being able to pay the mortgage get to move back into their homes. I think its interesting that they want a bailout but when it came to people losing their homes they weren't given the time of day. Not saying that the homeowners didn't have any of the blame, but its really hypocritical for them to think we the U.S. tax payers many of whom have lost their homes would want to bail them out when they don't even have a home to go to.

EK I agree, this woman is just plain scary and should be the last person that should put in a position of power.

I recall her saying that she would be prepared to go to war with Russia over the Georgia stuff. And if this happened IMHO I think that what Russia could do can make 9/11 look like a sunday school picnic.

But then I do believe that McCain only chose her cuz Obama was the democrate choice and Hilary was not his running mate and he wants the female vote. And had Hilary won the Democrat vote then I think that McCain more than likely would have chosen an African American as her funning mate

Tina Fey does it again. The hand movements....how Tina answered the questions......it's identical to the real interview!

[Toups]

Yup, same here. I can't believe this woman could become the POTUS. But then again, the US did have Bush for 8 years!

I watched PBS during the conventions too. I agree, it was very good and right up the middle. I watched the debates on CNN because they had the audience monitor.

Tina Fey was great. The debate skit was very funny too. At the end, they showed "Hillary" and said they had invited her in case McCain didn't show. :lol:

I seriously doubt that as it would have probably led to collapse of the Republican's unified front.

He would have picked someone the base loved and they all would have gone on an all out attack of the Clintons.

GREETINGS FELLOW DEBATERS!

We're still having a wonderful time here on the beautiful Central Coast of California, but I did want to take a few minutes to check in and say hello to you all. Please note that, although I did not watch the debate, I caught glimpses of it from a restaurant here.

I somehow managed yesterday to snap a photo of the debate on TV -- great two-shot of John and Barrack... a particularly heated exchange. I'm sure you all will remember this moment:

John McCain and Barrack Obama square off in a heated exchange.

I should add that the third party back there is Bob Barr. He's dejected because they wouldn't let him debate.

Just one of the more interesting debate moments I've seen this weekend! Seriously, that was taken about 4 miles north of San Simeon on Highway 101 on the Central Coast. Talk about awesome to see these guys up close and personal!! Hearst Castle was way cool, too... The tour guide noted that Hearst, despite his wealth, was ANYTHING but CONSERVATIVE!! Happy debating to you all... will talk to you soon!

Would be nice if John McCain and Rick Davis could stop with the childish crap about attacking the media and tell the truth on this.

And BTW......

Georgia has just fucked up their entire season. This was their chance to capture the No.1 spot and they screwed up....

BIG.
