Good morning and thanks for the service, as usual. Sorry the down time will make this thread harder this morning.
Just watched the debate between Dr. Coburn and Brad Carson.
Dr. Coburn clearly won!
Brad Carson was outmatched!
Carson has voted against the Oklahoma Delegation 400 times!
Donate to Dr. Coburn!

The bits and pieces I've seen of net news and morning shows is disgraceful. They'll do anything to discredit Pres. Bush. 30 days left of this BS.
LOL!
Did anybody catch Carson pulling the notes out of his pocket to read???
Thanks for posting this thread!!
I wish you were right, but I thought Carson, on the offense, prevailed. Dr. Coburn did not hurt himself beyond the setbacks he has had in the past two weeks, but he should have been more forceful. To me, Coburn seemed defensive, when he is clearly a man who does best on offense.
I'm not watching today, I haven't the stomach for it. Besides, I've already heard the spin. But I'll read the threads, thanks to your reliability :o)
Clearly No. 1, plus his ARROGANCE, which many of his supporters do not see
Did anybody catch Carson pulling the notes out of his pocket to read???
No, I did not catch that -- I am not the most observant in watching such "debates." But pulling notes out of his pocket won't hurt Carson with the lower-middle and middle- middle class voters he is seeking to draw away from BushCheney.
Tad Devine always looks like a cat that swallowed a sour mouse.
I sent Dr. Coburn a small check in August, and it was returned without explanation. I thought nothing of that, but now I wonder if his campaign apparatus is inefficient.
Thanks for posting this thread, Alas. I'm watching Fox News Sunday now. They're debating who won the debate.
Another current thread from the Manchester Union Leader says the question is not 'Who won the debate?', but rather, 'Who made more sense?'. He gives examples of Kerry talking in circles:
>Nuclear proliferation is the biggest problem facing the Unitd States, and yet we shouldn’t have invaded Iraq, even though I believed the intelligence showing Saddam had weapons of mass destruction.
>This war is a mistake, but no, the men and women dying in Iraq are not dying for a mistake. We shouldn’t “outsource” the fighting to non-American troops in Afghanistan, and yet we should be using more European troops to fight in Iraq.
>This is the wrong war and the wrong time, and yet I’ll be able to convince the French and Germans to join this wrong war at the wrong time.
>I’ll never let anyone veto a pre-emptive action by the United States, yet pre-emptive action must pass the “global test” first.
>It’s best to have a coalition assembled when facing down an enemy, but I want to deal one on one with North Korea, instead of multilaterally with China, Japan, Russia and South Korea on our side.
I'm amazed....if you "win" the debate, you should be president.
What's all this campaiging about?
Everybody's LOVING the Newsweek poll...as predicted, the MSM is just giddy and all smiles.
Thanks, Alas. Looks like we're back up ahead of schedule. That Yahoo alternate is not very good.
Thanks for the thread.
Tad Devine!!!
Every time I see that name... it's so dorky.
It sounds like one of the movie star names of the fifties ... like Tab Hunter,Rock Hudson, etc.
Well, at least Rock Hudson sounded kinda manly. Of course, as it turned out ...
But Tab and Tad. Puleeze.
