Between Paddy's swag find below, and this, we're good to go.
And don't leave home without it either. It carries more clout than the gender card, race card, age card, victim card, and any combination of any other cards a person might play.
The only thing left for our nominee to do is to just break down into fucking tears. I've already done it. It didn't help so I yelled at my 12 year-old son too. And then I finally felt better. (Seriously, he's had it coming for about 2 weeks now).
McCain is overplaying this card. It will come back to bite him.
But I disagree that these Senators should be the ones to make the point. It's got to be the late night comedians, the editorial page (which is happening), the blogs (like this one), and the rest of the media. Even the conservative media will start criticizing him for it if he keeps it up.
That way it does make him look like the putz he is. If a Dem official does it, it just gives Rush and the goper's a huge talking point and gives McCain the advantage. He would be the victim.
The Senators can be more agressive about the economy, the temper, the war, the houses, and lots of other things. They need to leave the POW thing alone and just let McCain destroy himself with that one.
He's already made himself the victim, Evers.
Sorry, Gotta. The way I had this pulled up on my screen I missed your witty, "Don't Leave Home Without It" headline and thought I was being witty. But I wasn't really witty at all b/c I evidently borrowed your wittiness.
LOL! Funny!
You left out real estate. LOLOL!
My wittiness is your wittiness is Anon's wittiness.
It's the obvious one-liner.
Unity.
Snark.
I'll keep it short, as I'm not in a good state of mind for being a good comment citizen right now: what eve said.
Hey CPants... what's wrong with your state of mind? Everything okay?
Adrienne, this might make you feel better about the tracking poll:
http://www.fivethirtyeight.com/2008/08/todays-polls-826.html
I want to yell at some of you. That's probably not good for blog unity, or whatever.
You had me worried for a second. Glad everything is okay, and it's just us.
In terms of just us, I'll speak for myself, but I bet I'm covering a few of us.
Sometimes we use this forum as our safe place to say anything we want, just to vent. Sometimes it's only momentary, and then rationality takes over.
And sometimes we get so caught up in one element of the bigger picture that it plays on our frailties, and so we don't always sound as logical or measured as we should.
I'm glad we have this place for that, and I'm grateful that we have each other to temper us when we're out of bounds or don't see things as clearly as we should.
See how calm and reasonable I can be? This is me when I'm not blogging. This is me when I'm not frustrated at some idiotic moment in the continuum that is politics.
Now, back to being a lunatic.
Everything's going to work out just fine. A problem with the news cycle, and the internet's place in it, is that we're watching the sausage being made now. Before, we just got to have the tasty sausage.
If you watch too much sausage making, you're apt to become a vegetarian. For this analogy, that's not a great thing for democracy, or Democrats.
It's COCKTAIL O'CLOCK!!!
Cheers everyone!!
Maybe not, but you made me hungry... and Paddy made me thirsty.
Sorry, Clancy. I'll behave now. I've been very moody today. But I think that Clinton's strategy is to just bug the hell out of everyone until the nomination is handed over to her. I hope I'm wrong. I really hope I'm wrong.
BTW Dennis Kucinich is giving McCain and Bush hell on C-Span right now.
Why didn't we nominate HIM? Was it just because he believes in UFOs?
Clancy has a point. At this point 24 hours ago there was a lot of angst and being upset about Clintons, etc. Yet, at the end of the night, it was pretty much agreed that it was a good night. And it was. Tonight shows every intent to be a good night, too!
And, Clanc, if I'm one of the people you want to explode at, do it 'cause I'd rather have you here exploding but still giving your point of view than not here!
Adrienne, don't hold back. That's my job. Otherwise, I'd have no friends at all (deep down, I'm a huge asshole).
For example:
We didn't nominate Kucinich because of the well-documented bias of many Democrats against Leprechaun-Americans. We're more than happy to take their gold, however.
LOL, Clancy. I will hold back a little so my mood doesn't rub off on anyone, but I worked my heart out for Senator Obama in the SC Democratic Primary. I also had my car vandalized just for having an Obama bumper sticker on it. I went to a campaign event down here and met Samantha Power and it was really upsetting b/c it was after everything became racialized, so maybe I'm a bit prone to hysteria. Why do you think Republican hubby has taken away my tv privileges?
If I offend, or veer so far off the beaten path, by all means reign me back in...otherwise what's the point, right?
How come others have been POWs and they didn't get issued any all purpose card? Shoot. My WWII dad got shot down and imprisoned, and suffered trauma. He still had to take responsibility for his own later actions and his own mental health consequences (just ask the VA). I guess that's the difference between McCain and the greatest generation. McCain's style is sacrificial showboating. I worry he'll make trauma in the White House so he can bask in it.
