It is reported that after the debate, McCain stormed out furious.

I'll wager those reports are accurate!

He got whacked and all but one column and media report I've read "says" the same thing.

I have the new thread ready to post, but it's a little too early, isn't it? Debate starts at 7:00PM your time. I've tried to remember to ping everyone from last night for round two. Well, almost everyone. I omitted two or three posters for MC and I might have missed a couple of others, but NOT on purpose.

Yep,
Gots to wonder about that one huh?

[Evil Slayer]

Thank you for your colorful response. I didn’t know posting ones viewpoints could get such a reaction. I guess I’d better stay off the board since you seem to be in charge of what I should say. When do I reach your time frame and not be a newbie anymore?

I want to see JD trounce McCain tonight also. Maybe this time we will see McCain loose his temper ON screen this time.

[SharpRightTurn]

Great report.

Thanks.

Yipppeeeeee!! Can't wait. TIA, Onyx!

A poll on Phoenix local channel 3 which carried the debate appeared immediately after the debate, and the station announced early this morning that JD scored 60%, McCain 6% and Deakin 20%.

It ain’t over yet!!!!

McCain votes like a Democrat for the first 5 years of his term and a Republican for the last year of his term. He has sponsored so many bills will the late Ted Kennedy that you would think Kennedy’s first name was McCain

[luvie]

I would PAY to see that! He has a short fuse and it’ll come
back to bite him some day. (maybe it WILL be tonight! LOL)

[A_Former_Democrat]

He was a pandering fool. Anyone to lose to such a weak candidate as Obama with so many vulnerabilities.

[luvie]

But...but...Obama’s BLACK! He HAD to win, doncha know!

Perhaps Palin will take Tancredo’s example and switch. I wish that she would. Tom Tancredo was neck deep in KS politics and found out the candidate he endorsed (I apologize for not having the name) was all for amnesty so Tancredo made a public announcement last week that he is withdrawing his endorsement and going with that candidate's contender (who by the way is against amnesty).

It would be great if Palin would shift her support. (Maybe we should Freep her about that)

[Beloved Levinite]

Gawd, how I HATE McLame’s smug fake laugh & endlessly blinking eyeballs. I hope JD can finally lead this old fart out to pasture.

Evil Slayer, you have angered Palinbot 002837. Palinbots don't like to hear about Sarah's repeated poor endorsement choices. She certainly has many good qualities, but if endorsing Fiorina and McCain wasn't enough to cause serious concerns about her judgment, it isn't really clear what it would take.

Also, I guess by his standards, I could call perfect_rovian_storm a "newbie" since I've been around longer than he has. I've been a member with this name since 2002, and I went to my congressman's office in person to protest the endless recounts during the 2000 election with fellow FReepers back then, although I only lurked at that point.

Sarah Palin is a decent woman, and I agree with the vast majority of her views, although not her repeated poor judgment in endorsements. The Messiah-like personality cult around her, however, is simply disturbing, and in fact reminds me of the behavior of those who worship that other supposed "messiah", who is currently embarrassing our nation in the White House.

That poll’s so amazing, I would be doing jumping jacks out of joy if JD can make the comeback.

Also this question for McCain:
You are so proud that you don’t ask for any pork for AZ.
Why do you vote for bills that have pork for all the other states.
Why leave your home state out of the $$? AZ needs more roadwork, more bridges (between Bullhead City and Laughlin, Nv, for one)
This state could use some of our tax dollars returning to us in this state. Other senators ask and receive for their states, why not us????

[Borax Queen]

It’s sickening.

Great question!

Yeah, and with no money!
