Like I mentioned before, McCain' new campaign slogan, "Anything but the issues".

I have a firm grasp on logos of my time...

It's funny when 10 minutes or so of the debate was spent talking about Ayers and stuff, that's all that some people choose to recall.
If McCain was 20 years younger and a little sharper speaker (a-la Ronald Regan) he might be winning.
If McCain had vehemently opposed the bail-out like I had hoped he would, he might be winning.
We can still hope for the Bradley Effect!
What gets me, is when you go to Factcheck.org - how can these guys (BOTH of them) keep stating thigns as facts that are just not true?
It's amazing that we tolerate such misrepresentation of things.
The "100% negative ads" thing made me laugh my ass off. As did the $700M to people who dont like us)...its all comedy.
Straight up, the President doesn't effect me as much as my City and County commissioners, maybe I can win some of those elections!

"We can still hope for the Bradley Effect!"
We can hope that there's a measurable effect of underlying prejudice of race still in this country?
My hope is that you're kidding!
In the end, I think this will be a good lesson for the Republican party. All ideologies need a good ass-kicking now and again to re-focus on their message and values and how they relate those to the American people. It's an inherently valuable thing to be able to re-group, re-think, and re-engage your constituents. The Democrats have had to do it over the last 10 years. American politics is a cycle.

All i will say is if this was 2000 and i was old enough to vote then (and much more political) i would have voted for McCain of 2000. I don't like the new McCain of 2008, that instead of being that "maverick" is just a "neo-con"
