Bless the hearts of Ohioans and Floridians, who stand in voting lines for HOURS. Seriously, it's an incredible source of dedication as well as sacrifice.

Follow me after the fold.

Tom Brokaw's performance as debate moderator tonight was abyssmal. I'm inclined (albeit not convinced) he was worse than Gwen Ifill in the Veep debate.

Let's talk about it after the fold:

The McCain campaign screwed this one up -- BIG TIME! Beyond their MO of distracting from McCain's marriage to Bush and the Republican base, they failed to see the big picture in their strategum of dumbing down Sarah BEFORE the big reveal that fell flat in this debate.

I admit it. I was in denial. When I heard that Bill Clinton was making the rounds on the talk-show circuit, I was POSITIVE his motivation was to pull out the guns and fight for Barack Obama. I know, his schtick was reportedly his global initiative, but come on!

Many have expressed disdain over the Sarah Palin diaries here. I've not said it, but I have strongly felt it. Some things are missing in these commentaries.

Did anyone consider that this interview (en toto) airs on a Friday night? You know, that whole strategy of "dumping" the bad stuff on a weekend so the MSM barely touches it? It didn't work.

(note: any quotes in this diary were transcribed directly from my recording of the interview)

My son is in Denver as president of the Massachusetts College Dems. He just called to give me a little on the goings on (haven't talked to him since Friday)

What a piece of work! McCain was interviewed on Face The Nation about this topic this morning.

I couldn't find a diary on this one. I just heard about this contest on McCain's site.

Have any of you seen this movie? I saw it for the first time tonight. Yes, it's pretty old (Gov Clinton's campaign for the WH). But it is quite interesting and reminiscent -- and oddly parallels the latest news about John Edwards and his infidelity.

Not at all!

Yes, because he isn't as good at covering his tracks.

We were in worse shape when Clinton ran so the affair didn't matter.

I admit I struggled with whether to write this because I kind of feel like paying attention to the bullshit about John Edwards' "affair" may just draw more into buying the spin . . .

But my local paper has an opinion piece today that just had me reeling. I couldn't help myself.

Here's the piece Rennie's republican spin

So, ending the war will restore our economy? How so? I admit that I can't balance my checkbook. I suck at math. I'm an English major. But I'm also a critical thinker. By my standards, I can't reconcile the war's end to a national, balanced budget.
