5. Not to bring up old wounds but this totally reminds me of the Dem. primaries...
Obama has been rock steady throughout. His opponents zig and zag and bob and weave...looking for an angle that works.

6. The only change that might help is if McCain could press "reset" and..
....become a liberal Democrat.

I give the chance of that happening a negative 90%.

7. Has it even finished rebooting since his last reset?
In my experience, you can hit CTRL-ALT-DEL all you want, but the system won't even recognize it until it's up again.

If he's doing anything, he's pulling the power. And then he'll have to go through the annoying "the system appears to not have been shut down correctly" and scanning the c: drive shit.

8. Just turn off the computer, Gramps. It has too many bugs to salvage.
Time for that screen to go blank.

12. How many times does this guy think he can remake himself?
Of course he has an advantage sine the press loves him and let's the prick get away with it time after time after time.

19. Might I make a suggestion to the Mccain campaign. Yall have seriously f*cked this sh*t up.
Edited on Sun Oct-12-08 10:36 PM by nc4bo
The reset button got red hot and had a meltdown. You guys kept pushing it over and over again and now it's broken.

Now for some good ole advice:

My first suggestion: Tag and bag that Moose you all have strapped atop Straight Talk Express.

Really fellas it's long over due, way past the sell-by date, the fur's got holes in it, the antlers have termites and PETA is beyond pissed.

Try that first and if that doesn't work, I'll come up with another suggestion after 11/05/08.

21. because of Letterman?
NYT (on google news page) says McCain is now doing Letterman Thursday night after the debate. Is that the "reset"?

25. That 'reset' button has to be about worn out by now;
MkkKrash is making Obama's argument that he's erratic and lurching all over the place for him.

26. No, it's *this* he always used to get out of a fuck-up
Doesn't always work in the way you want, though.



In a political campaign, once started, there are no 'do-overs'. You're stuck with the turd you're trying to polish, for good or ill.

29. Halperin is a dickhead.
He said on Hardball last week that Obama was "emotionless" and that he wanted a blood sample to verify he wasn't an "andriod".

Asshole.
