An update on the reports of nuts at Palin rally....
Secret Service Looking Into Potential Threat Against Obama
Wiley says the Secret Service did not begin looking into the matter until press reports, namely Dana Milbank's article in the Washington Post, surfaced today, because no agents at the event heard anything. "The Secret Service did not hear any threatening statements directed at targets under its protection and no threatening statements were reported to us by law enforcement or citizens at the event," Wiley told Radar. Also unclear: whether the remark was directed at Obama or Ayers if the words were actually "kill" and "him."
Wiley said that the Secret Service had tried to get in touch with Milbank to get his account of the event but was unsuccessful. Were the they able to confirm the remark they'd "be looking to talk to that person," Wiley said. "We investigate everything because we take all threats seriously."
The reporter was the only one to hear it and is not returning calls from the Secret Service. I'm pretty suspicious.

McCain needs a debate coach to tell him 2 things:
1- When attacked, respond to the attack with an "affirmative defense". Obama accuses you of causing this financial crisis, don't be afraid to be outraged at this outrageous allegation and then flip it back on him. Say in very clear terms: "No, me and my party didn't cause this, you and yours caused this disaster and are now lying about it to blame it on us." Then explain point by point to the American people why this is the case. This is a serious allegation, it's the allegation that the whole election pivots on and it's not a time to be afraid of sounding "mean".
2- Loose the "My friends" line. It sounds creepy and phony.

Fine if he doesn't but then he lectures Americans for being provincial. Now he throws in exotic pronunciations to seem spohismocated. I am with whover above said they speak Spanish but never order Burrrrrrrrrritos. I am the same way when I am in the states and speaking to another American about something French or Japanese, using the standard American pronounciation. Anything else is obnoxious pretense.

On a my 1-10 scale: JM - 7.5 BHO - 5.5
John didn't do what I was hoping he would do. He was better tonight, and certainly better than Barry, but I feel he came up short. Maybe the format didn't end up lending itself to the delivery of a knockout blow, but the reality here is that the punch just wasn't thrown. I will continue to support and help campaign for JM all the way to the election, but I sure wish he had taken on the socialist pretender full in the face. Sigh.

re: #278 Occasional Reader
And now, the Fox talking heads with the usual "no knockout punches" line. They seem to expect one of these to turn out like a "Law & Order" episode, where the guilty party blurts out his confession on the stand. "YES! YES! I'M A MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE PUT UP BY SAUDI INTERESTS AND GEORGE SOROS! NOW GET OFF MY BACK!"
LOL!
I can't seem to upding tonight. Sorry to waste bandwidth.

re: #297 unclassifiable
You are right. Barry is just saying what his advisors told him would sound right. He lacks conviction unless he is discussing one of his many leftist talking points. The stuttering seems to occur when he's less sure of himself. The inability to recall the main point of the issue is where I notice the possible short term memory loss. He's perfectly comfortable spouting bullsh!t; ergo not as much stuttering. Bullsh!t is his natural habitat.

Think McCain said more that needed to be said. But the formatting of the questions didn't get to the heart of anything new. And we needed something to break open for McCain that couldn't in this format because of the moderation and the questions that were asked. Too scripted questions to scripted answers.
What was lost in all of this was the necessity to get your point across while there is still time to define yourself and your oponent.
Think Obama on defensive more...but not sure if that mattered in the long run.
Brokaw is past his prime....way past.

Anyone else hate this format? What Americans need is some real in-depth debating, not this farce. Who can get to the heart of anything in one or two minutes? All we get are sound bites. Lame, very lame. Are we going to get the government we deserve? May God help us all.

My wife just about threw me out when I started violently yelling at Brokenjaw about that no nothing prig (very appropriate term for Barry). I am getting toooo old for this stuff. Let the second revolution start so I can still participate before I keel over from a broken blood vessel.
While McCain is not the smoothest talker at least he can make complete sentences that actually make sense.

re: #292 Catttt
Barry is a gasbag. He kept jumping in to rebut, when it wasn't in the schedule. Got really annoying. REALLY annoying.
Just like he kept trying to interrupt in the first debate. Whatever the O man wants, the O man gets. The heck with the rules. Rules are for the little people. Totally disgusting.

I only saw the last few questions, and I've learned a lot about what went on before from these threads. But, from what I did see, Mac seems to be trying to almost gently get his message through. No temper, no fireworks: just honest plain talk, which is what he promises for his administration. He's a seasoned politician, and this campaign is the culmination of a long career of winning elections. I think that, as frustrating as it is to those who know he must be our next president, this strategy may be to reach "undecided" voters, those uneasy about O's resume and past, the doubters: reach them not with personality alone, but with honesty. Not flatter them with bullshit, like O has been getting away with. O was a gasbag tonight.
And whoever that last question came from should be sentenced to listen to O's non-answer on a loop, for all eternity.
