Howabout Tennessee Ernie Ford? The Tennessee Waltz?

Tennessee has a lot to recommend it!

It's lovely, hector. @@

I often get the impression your computer is more visual than mine.

This is a truly strange campaign video:

http://www.johnmccain.com/service/day2_webvideo.htm
John McCain: Courageous Service - Experienced Leadership - Bold Solutions

What's with the Headless Rock Star?

Did somebody tell him, "hey the kids really go for that crazy rock'n'roll stuff, so we'd better put one in there so we look like hepcats"?

And what's with the swirling smoke?

And the message "you should rat out your friends to the principal" Will that go over real well?

Not to mention the sepia tones makes it look like something dug up from the Civil War era.

Today I saw a picture of Obama's wife for the first time. They make a nicer couple than Hillary and Bill. Hill Bill...

Concerning those "conservative" Democrats, Rex. It's Chuck Schumer's brilliant new strategy. The point about Republicans connecting these local Democrats to the national party---Obama---is to demonstrate that they aren't as "moderate" as they seem.

Case in point: Bob Casey jr.

Exactly. Except it isn't working. That's the point.

Okay, that's fine. But it shouldn't be out of bounds game-playing.

I agree that connecting local Democrats to Jeremiah Wright is quite the stretch.

Okay, sorry, I'm not saying it is out of bounds in any moral sense- sure, it's generally legit to tie your opponent to the party standard, even if he/she deviates from that quite a bit. Democrats in Maine will try to imply Olympia Snowe is a Bush clone etc.

I'm just sayin', so far in this cycle, it ain't workin'- BU WA HA HA HA HA!

(Needless to say, I still believe that, no matter how much the electoral fundamentals are in their favour, the Democrats still have a pretty good chance of following their recent tradition of snatching defeat out of the jaws of victory.)

Here's to hoping they do. *swigs*

The question, I suppose, is whether McCain is drawing enough independents and McCain-o-Crats to outnumber the pot-smoking, Rolling Stone magazine-reading college students.

What do you call someone who doesn't like old people? A geriatrist?
