And away we go......
What an incredible week we have had!
Good morning, lysie.
Thank you for the start and breakfast!
Been up forever. We have to leave here by 7:30 AM to catch the flight to Maine. Think I’d better start making some noise so hubby will wake up. Bless his heart......He’s not a good morning person.
Hi, 2/3s.
I’m still pumped!
Good morning, Two thirds! Yes, we have had a great week!
McCain/Palin are in your state today, I think. If you can’t go, you might see if you can catch the local coverage.
Hi L! I’m going to be pumped all the way through Nov. 4!
Obama never got a bounce. Don’t they ususally pick up five points or so in the convention?
But McCain should get a nice bump from Palin
Good morning, Jane. Yes, they are going to be in Colorado Springs around 10-11 am mountain time. I didn’t even try to get a ticket. I’m sure they will be coming back to Colorado numerous times since it is a ‘battleground state’. I will see them on one of those trips fer sure!
Palin’s nomination on the Friday after the dem convention sucked the air out of his bounce. It kept his speech out of the news and the media, in its stupidity, instead of going BACK to Obama after the Palin announcement, spent all weekend on attempting to trash Palin.
Now Palin and McCain are drawing huge enthusiastic crowds while Obama is old news and is showing up at small, unadvertised faux town halls. His crowds look bored, too.
You know, this is really fun! I am enjoying watching the left make fools of themselves. They are even more deranged about Sarah Palin than they are about President Bush!
I have been listening to Mike Gallagher's replay from yesterday and he has been talking about something that is absolutely extraordinary. Remember last week McCain put out a message of congratulations to his opponent on the day that his opponent gave his "I am the greatest human being that has ever graced the Earth with my presence" speech in front of the styro-foam Greek columns?
What did McCain's opponent do this week? He made an appearance on O'Rielley after months of being asked to appear on the show, but only after demanding it be on the same night of McCain's speech OBVIOUSLY to draw attention from McCain's big night. Mike Gallagher said that some of the Fox News people he talked to said the people who work for McCain's opponent were 'diabolical'. NOTE: There was NEVER any congratulations message to McCain from his opponent after McCain sealed the nomination.
Good morning! Good morning! Game day today.
They are evil people.
Hope to be around here more this weekend.
So where's Biden these days??
Bit, I have an idea: Carville should prepare Biden for his debate. he, he...
Yes, they are evil, and we MUST beat them on November 4.
WOW! Interesting to hear that background info. I was struck by the contrast between the 2 candidates’ actions those 2 nights.
I don't like the looks of the map - McCain needs to get all the toss-ups save one in his column.
