5. It was a good night for Democrats!
For the first time, I feel optimistic about both the candidates. I hope McCain and Romney watched the debate and realize what they're up against. Now if only people here could get THEIR acts together and behave like adults!

9. I know
That's why when I tentatively peeked into GDP, yours was the only thread I clicked on. Perhaps its political tourettes syndrome.

12. Is this some sort of cheap code making fun of the
fact the 49ers aren't playing on Sunday?

Mmmm hmmmmm.

There are no bridges in Boston?

17. Especially when compared
to the prior night's debate. Ours compared to theirs is a striking difference.

20. That's an understatement
It is as if the republicans are from another time and place, which would probably explain invoking Reagan's name over and over again. It is actually kind of pathetic.

23. It's good for us as
so many young people weren't around for or were too young to remember Reagan. That's not what they want to hear.

26. That's a good point
Reagan worship only appeals to a select group of people and they were going to vote republican anyway.

11. Don't you want to know what Candy Crowley thinks?
Damn, what happened to that woman? She looks like a tranny after a rough weekend.

Anyway, yeah. Great pic, great debate. It just ended here. I was dying to see it all day. Momentous, thanks Will for the souvenir.

16. We've come a long way, then.
Symbolism is bunk.

I guess that means we're right.

Ew.

22. Had the same feeling myself
during the debate. For all the fighting, I almost missed out on the amazing sense of awe I felt for the history we made tonight. Then again, maybe it was because it felt like it was just natural and right. No big deal. Try telling that to them, though

27. I thought about that when I watched the debate
Both the candidates looked so good and bad lighting or makeup would have ruined the moment.

25. What a beautiful sight!
Makes me almost tear up to think that we will have either a woman or African American as our nom.

My fairy tale dream is a Clinton/Obama or Obama/Clinton ticket. And...McCain/Leiberman...two deathly, ghostly white guys.

29. Oh, I'd love to see a McCain/Leiberman ticket!
If McCain's wimpy persona doesn't turn people off, Lieberman's whinny voice will. Wimpy and Whinny!!!

31. Yeah
Two Corporate-friendly candidates from the new and historic modern Democratic Party, which only is missing one thing.......REAL DEMOCRATIC CORE VALUES.

Isn't it just peachy to have our own Democrats sound like moderate Republicans and to use the word poverty as a prop?

I'll take the lesser story of "John", the one with the REAL idea of what a Democrat should sound like.

"America The Beautiful"? Yeah, if you're sitting in a Corporate board room!

44. So is my retort to your picture....
ACCURATE. But you chose to ignore that and dismiss the part where you would have to comment on the content, right?

Oh, I'm not your "friend", nor your enemy. I don't need a break, either. Do you?
