We have been saved.................

The world is all ok. We have passed the "Make Wall Street rich, screw the little man" bill and we have seen the real puppet "Sarah Palin".

I guess because we are so rich we can just add another $110 billion to the bailout bill. WTF is that all about. Maybe all this money could have been used to help people with no insurance actually get some, maybe we could have given that money back directly to the taxpayers, maybe we could have created a fund to help stem the home foreclosure crisis or maybe we could have used the money to help the people on our ever growing unemployment rolls. Maybe.

As for the Dullbate Thursday night it was not that great. Sorry pundits. Sarah Palin may have made her party happy because she made not big blunders, but really. They wound her up, pulled the string and she went out and said what she was told to say. You could tell quite easily that everything she said was what she was trained to say. It did not seem forced, but it also did not seem like they were original thoughts. I know that is part of the debate process, but you need to let the debater be their own person. When she lost her train of thought she always went to energy or some other subject like stating she and John are mavericks. If they are mavericks we are screwed.

As for Joe he did fine. He was in a no win situation really. He could not go to soft and he could not really push too hard or he would have been vilified. However he knew the facts quite well and Sarah did not.

If that debate made the Republicans happy and brought the party closer together well I am glad. I'll be happy when we win on November 4th and you will be wondering what the hell happened.

Think Florida will go Democratic this time? Hope so...
This election is just starting on its dirty phase. The next debate should be loaded with shit slinging. Obama better be careful... he has a good lead in the polls. McCain doesn't have much to lose, so he can say about anything he wants. Obama has to straddlle a shaky fence.

Hard to figure Florida out.

If Obama can bet the Hispanic vote then he should win. North Florida is Republican, Central is Democratic for the most part and South Florida is the real swing area, usually Republica. He needs to win big in the central part of the state or bring some votes from the South to his side.

Oh yeah, the dirt is starting to fly.
