mccain has been striking me as increasingly erratic and not all there. i don't even mean politically, necessarily -- as a human being. do mccain followers perceive this at all? it feels like a non-partisan observation on my part. i'm just watching the guy and he truly seems numb or something.

he can't help it, he's very good at it. seriously.

yes, that must be it.

they must be in a panic. and how to get rid of her? they can't, after bringing her out of the woods on a parade float and presenting her as this giant gift to the country. i can't see potential mccain/palin voters putting up with not seeing her debate after what the country has seen in her so far. but then, some of them will excuse just about anything.

my experience has been that kwall is right here. most traditional fiscal conservatives that i encounter have thought bush was a disaster since the iraq invasion and believe he has only gotten worse.

at the close of political and bailout business tonight, this is exactly what the upshot looked like to me. keep an open mind for tomorrow, this is one insane week.

yep. more than ever i think she should be running for junior high school cheerleader. and nothing else.

all right, that does it. they both should be thrown out of the race on grounds of absurdity and the most shameless kind of politicking i've ever seen, in the middle of a crisis. really.

thank you thank you

he was absolutely brilliant and fearless, no question about it.

missed it, damn. i'll check (cbs?) in the morn. ?

martial law.

"mavericky" should be included in dictionaries, along with truthiness.

when on a multi-lane highway, and the 45-mph driver stays in the right lane, i don't see a problem. it's the chronic 85's that bother me.

i love your posts! not news, i know, but this one made me say it again.

i hope they're not expecting something. i hope this isn't interesting timing.

george will, in case anyone missed it: George Will: McCain shows he's not presidential 05:05 AM CDT on Wednesday, September 24, 2008 Under the pressure of the financial crisis, one presidential candidate is behaving like a flustered rookie playing in a league too high. It is not Barack Obama. Channeling his inner Queen of Hearts, John McCain furiously, and apparently without even looking around at facts, said Chris Cox, chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission, should be decapitated. This childish reflex provoked The Wall Street Journal to editorialize that "McCain unteth

whenever i see or hear people firsthand railing against someone else's sexual preference, it literally sounds like some kind of personal fright that turns into a ridiculous aggression when they feel the impulse to speak about it. it's so revealing that i always wonder why they don't pass out in embarrassment.

not sure whose words these were, of the people quoted, but they sum it up nicely. the democrats' refusal or inability to stand up to the power grabs that have gone on for the last eight years -- or their actually supporting them -- has been just as appalling as the power grabs themselves. we've had sit-ins at our democratic rep's office here several times during these years, trying to get the democrat to do the right thing on votes concerning war funding, the patriot act, and more. he'd talk one way and vote another, making himself just as much a part of the larger problem as anyone else

let me guess: and so does kerry . . . interesting list, and i'll have to read the article. one of my senators is #20, who knew?
