    I don't disagree about the facebook poll thing, but it does give you an idea what that demographic is thinking.

    The reporter on ABC just read one quote from a facebook poster saying its amazing how little the republicans know about real life (poverty).

    Kind of my point on the health care issue.

    True but there are folks who join one party over another just on abortion issue.

    And I like you, my man. And I took your point. But the facebook demographic is changing, was all I was trying to say.

    I pray that you're right.

    I mean, if Boom's going to bring us down into the sludge, it might as well be accurate sludge.

    Meanwhile, back in Goffstown, I thought zeke and I had really called it there for a minute when Obama and Edwards went after HRC, who I thought defended herself quite nobly. The "likable" moment was a bad one for Obama, who looked peevish. That said, the whole debate was freaking sill, starting with Charlie Gibson, who clearly believed he was the only one smart enough to be president up there. The moment when he talked about the two St. A's professors "who, combined, make $200K a year," and the entire crowd laughed, was a high point for me. There was the phony "2017" social-security scare number that ABC just sort of floated out there. I thought nobody did badly, certainly by comparison to the R's, who had at least two guys on the stage who plainly didn't give a fuck, and Mitt Romney, who decided to do the entire event in Urdu.

    UPDATE --
    I have very little use for anyone on the GOP side -- McCain has what little use I have for any of them -- but they deserve better than this crapola from Time Magazine.

    Any preps editor in America would bounce that.

    Hillarty keeps making this comment that she's spent "35 years making changes."

    Yes she was a big attorney professionally, but mostly she was a governor's wife for 12 years and a president's wife for 8. What change has she made besides drape colors?

    Thank you...they need to destroy her for the 35 year comment...yeah, you did such a good job getting us all great and cheap health care in 1993.
    She's a fraud.

    From the debate...


    35 years making change.
    What change did she make in 1972?
     
  12. Yeah, because nobody, and certainly no wealthy and powerful people, lined up against the idea.
    Remember Bloody Bill Kristol sent out the memo -- no health-care plan should pass, no matter who devised it, not because it was good or bad policy, but because the Democrats would get credit for it and the middle-class would vote D for a long time.
    Tell me again about partisanship. Fuckhead Kristol.
