    I saw McCain and Obama at a televised event tonight- they were classy and gracious to each other. Hope it remains that way when Obama smokes his old butt! McCain looks like the lizard man to me- I keep expecting him to catch a fly with his tongue...

    Sadly, this probably puts your knowledge of the issues above 50% of the electorate.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Isn't it disturbing that Americans know so little about McCain? What is he hiding? Why isn't the media telling us about him?

    Isn't that the argument everyone who wants to raise taxes will make? Besides, the goal of government shouldn't be to maximize tax revenue, it should be to find the minimum level of taxation it needs to survive, thereby allowing the rest of the economy to allocate those monies as they see fit.

    The line we're being fed is that some bureaucrat in Washington knows better what to do with our money than we do. I can hardly wait for his first Five Year Plan. I wonder if part of his jobs program will be at the newly created Lefortovo Left Shoe Factory #23?

    After the way McCain turned on Keating, I can't imagine that's a good thing for McCain.

    My guess is that you never paid Clinton taxes. They sucked.

    and having a national debt of $ 10 331 075 803 731 is a sign of doing fine?

    The fact that 538 quibbles with a poll is just as irrelevant.

    You were all over PapaG for saying that the polls were tightening. There's evidence they are.

    The message is what's important, not the messenger.

    That is a BS attack on Fivethirtyeight, as they show both their projection, trend-adjustments, and POLL SNAPSHOTS.

    McCain is tightnening the race a bit, that's true...but the problem is, Obama isn't losing any ground. McCain is just turning some of the remaining undecideds back his way, and not taking support away from Obama.

    I would just love Obama supporters to get overhyped and overly cocky, then infinate ownage on election night as people are celebrating instead of voting.

    I must say, the Obama Cocksucking on TV is going to be sickening if and when he wins the election.
