9 p.m. ET on MSNBC. Last chance for our gal, for realsies. The boss, cynic that she is, has already liveblogged it in Laphamesque fashion. In the unlikely event that either party veers from the script — we’re in a cooldown stage, after all — we’ll have video here later. If you’re looking for schadenfreude, enjoy Clinton crony Leon Panetta taking a ceremonial dump on ace Hillary pollster Mark Penn. If it’s Messiah reading you want, take your pick: Newsweek offering him as the first woman president or the Wash Times suggesting that the Pentagon’s wringing its hands at the thought of a true blue lefty C-in-C (“A senior Pentagon official said an Obama swearing-in ‘will give the Arab street the final victory, the best optics, and the ultimate in bragging rights. They win. We lose.’”) We know from the left’s incessant pounding of the chickenhawk meme that only the military really knows what it’s talking about in matters of war, so weigh that accordingly.
I believe. I still believe.
Update: “One member said the only way he wouldn’t vote for Clinton is if he died.”

How can you say those words without linking to the worst fake saxophone playing ever?

They should each be armed with 10 cream pies. Whoever scores the most hits to their opponent’s pie hole, wins.
Long live Moe!

Where rooting for some excellent Snark,for entertainment
purposes.That way we have a little Holiday from Republican
Caine,oops I mean John McCain.And therefore this relief
valve of humour might save some Republicans who aren’t
happy the way this nominee thing is working out!Hhahahahaha
canopfor on February 26, 2008 at 8:37 PM
Again, her only chance is to go to the RIGHT of him on the war…since that’s the only topic on which she can do so…to convince any leaning Independents to vote for her. If she doesn’t she’s a fool.
SouthernGent on February 26, 2008 at 8:39 PM
Only one of the below is correct, care to guess
1. Hillary Diane Clinton was named after Sir Edmund Hillary.
2. Barak Hussein Obama was named after some Muslim dude.
3. John Shamnesty McCain’s real M.I. is Sidney after his Grandfather who in the 1700s sailed the convicts of England to Sidney Australia.

As Technician Third Class Dave Lister said while watching female, topless boxing…”I’m just praying that it goes the distance.”
But, as Kryten observed “…they’re not even hitting one another. They just appear to be standing in the centre of the ring and jiggling up and down.”
Which is pretty much what I expect to see tonight.

I think they should structure this last debate in this manner:
Read excerpts from Jonah’s book and discuss.

That might be fake sax playing in the movie but he is Tim Capello, the real saxophonist.
Dr. Manhattan on February 26, 2008 at 8:41 PM
Dang. Seriously?
Heh. You learn something new everyday. That movie is an 80s child touchstone.
Slublog on February 26, 2008 at 8:43 PM
Will they sitting at their desks like third-graders again?

Go Hillary! (And please don’t forget that check next month)

Murder murder murder

Never trust a hippie!
With one big shout
They all cry out
Who killed Bambi?

Here’s hoping she’ll be wearing her best Bumble Bee outfit to complement the presentation.
petefrt on February 26, 2008 at 8:51 PM
You want to know something pretty stupid? I just figured out that my local cable provider has MSNBC on channel 99. I don’t know why the hell else I would have gone anywhere near 99 unless I was specifically looking for MSNBC, since there is absolutely no other channel above channel 69 on my local cable lineup.
Are other cable providers out there putting MSNBC way the hell out there? Could this be part of the reason why there are only 10 or so other people in the country that watch this almost pitifully underviewed cable news channel?
Mark V. on February 26, 2008 at 8:52 PM
YES!! That would be excellent.
CrimsonFisted on February 26, 2008 at 8:56 PM
Please Hillary: try attacking BHO instead of George W. Bush.
carbon_footprint on February 26, 2008 at 8:57 PM
T-minus one minute to snark!

Whooot!!!!!! Just got back in time.

I early voted for the “O” today in Texas…finally a chance to take back that vote for Bubba in 96!
My prediction: flameout for Hilldebeast.
JollyRoger on February 26, 2008 at 9:02 PM
Can’t believe I’m:
1 – watching MSNBC
2 – rooting for Hillary
Monkey flies out my butt in 3, 2 …

Anyone who wants to chat about the debate come on over!

They are both annoying.
j0 on February 26, 2008 at 9:05 PM
Are the people that meet Hillary are all devestated,all!

Well now, will Brian and Timmy be watchin Barry’s back all night?
fogw on February 26, 2008 at 9:07 PM
I love how National Security is a non existent issue with these two crazies.
j0 on February 26, 2008 at 9:08 PM
I think Brian Williams is one of the dumbest people walking the planet.
As they say.
benrand on February 26, 2008 at 9:08 PM
This is boring so far.
carbon_footprint on February 26, 2008 at 9:09 PM
Did Obama say “Massatusetts”?
Mark V. on February 26, 2008 at 9:09 PM
Who put her in a crappy brown blazer? I’m having another beer to see if I can actually watch any more of this.
JollyRoger on February 26, 2008 at 9:09 PM
First shot over the Bow,negative attacks!
canopfor on February 26, 2008 at 9:09 PM
On ‘Us’…..are ‘We’ the Pharaoh or just Henry VIII?
Limerick on February 26, 2008 at 9:10 PM
I like how they are hardly looking at each other. Fun!
SouthernGent on February 26, 2008 at 9:10 PM
I bereave I really bereave.
William Amos on February 26, 2008 at 9:10 PM
Possible, I don’t know him, but he does have a nice dry sense of humour.
sunny on February 26, 2008 at 9:10 PM
the meltdown is coming tonight….I am already see the anger coming out.
How bad do you all think it will be?
lsutiger on February 26, 2008 at 9:10 PM
Let’s play a game: try not to stare at Barack’s blue mole on his left cheek.
carbon_footprint on February 26, 2008 at 9:11 PM
They keep showing him in profile, and her straight on almost all the time. Interesting…in a directatorial sense.
SouthernGent on February 26, 2008 at 9:11 PM
OMG..she gave him a death stare.
SouthernGent on February 26, 2008 at 9:12 PM
Naomi Wolf?
Mark V. on February 26, 2008 at 9:12 PM
Do these two know we have a House of Representatives and a Senate?
Universal Health Care will never pass. Didn’t last time, won’t this time.
Next topic please.
fogw on February 26, 2008 at 9:12 PM
That smirk doesn’t help her cause…come on hilldawg we want a brokered convention.
sunny on February 26, 2008 at 9:12 PM
If Hillary doesn’t deal with Bam in the same level headed manner he’s dealing with her, it’ll be bad-bad.
(he said Massetussets, again)
yo on February 26, 2008 at 9:13 PM
He said it again – Massatusits
LordMaximus on February 26, 2008 at 9:13 PM
The libs constantly say Bush’s inability to pronounce “nuclear” proves that he’s an idiot.
Well, apparently the Messiah can’t pronounce Massachusetts correctly (he clearly said “massaTOOsits”.
Conclusion? Oh, right. I forgot. You can’t criticize the Messiah.
bofh on February 26, 2008 at 9:13 PM
Hillary has multiple personalities.
She is a VERY strange person.
Massatusetts???
WTF WTF WTF?
Gosh, what will the snarky lefties do about such an idiot who can’t even pronounce a US state???
Can he spell February? Wednesday?
LMAO

William Amos on February 26, 2008 at 9:10 PM
Is that you Kim Jong Ill immitation from “TEAM AMERICA”? I’m so ronry.
THE CHOSEN ONE on February 26, 2008 at 9:14 PM
Yup he dood. You’d be surprised how many people massacre the people’s state of Massachusetts’ name.
He should have gotten it right since he is best buds with its lefty governor
Duncan Khuver on February 26, 2008 at 9:14 PM
I can’t watch this drivel. Let me know when PMSNBC makes up for the Chelsea “pimp” remark by asking Obama a series of good questions.
SouthernGent on February 26, 2008 at 9:15 PM
Welp, Hillary just said she’ll make sure your health care insurance premium can’t be higher than a certain percentage of your income.
Stalin. ‘08.
MrSteve on February 26, 2008 at 9:15 PM
Hillary make him explain his plan. He said everyone will but not how.
Limerick on February 26, 2008 at 9:15 PM
Am I the only one the video is buffering,in and out.
But for Hillary,If looks can Kill!
canopfor on February 26, 2008 at 9:15 PM
…or at those giant ears.
bofh on February 26, 2008 at 9:15 PM
Can I get free health care in Massatootis??
Maybe I should move to Massatoosits.
LOL, jeesh.
His people have to communicate to him the right pronunciation, maybe through a radio hidden on his person, maybe behind his huge ears.
Massatoosits. LOL
benrand on February 26, 2008 at 9:16 PM
Dumb question time. How come the moderator never asks what constitutional authority these yutzes are using for federal based health care ?
Just wondering.
Duncan Khuver on February 26, 2008 at 9:16 PM
“Sleep all day. Party all night. Never grow old. Never die. It’s fun to be a
vampireDemocrat supporter“.Seven Percent Solution on February 26, 2008 at 9:16 PM
No substantial difference….then what was the point of the flyer?
Limerick on February 26, 2008 at 9:16 PM
Most of the audience is just hearing fuzz, right now. No one cares about the nuance. They want fisticuffs and Bam’s goin’ rope-a-dope on Hillary.
yo on February 26, 2008 at 9:16 PM
I can’t watch this whole painfully boring thing, but I am rooting for those super delegates who are thumbing their noses at Madame Speaker.

Hill’s SNL joke just went down in flames.
It’ll haunt her.
yo on February 26, 2008 at 9:19 PM
BO appears to be nervous. The claws are out and he’s on his heels.
swami on February 26, 2008 at 9:19 PM
Damn, just tuned in and she was ripping him to hell.
muyoso on February 26, 2008 at 9:19 PM
SNL !!!!!! Boink!
Limerick on February 26, 2008 at 9:19 PM
Well, I guess it’s not as bad as “Jenjis Khan.”
Mark V. on February 26, 2008 at 9:19 PM
Didn’t he go to Harvard Law? Maybe it was a correspondence course.
Nite nite.
Buy Danish on February 26, 2008 at 9:19 PM
Dear God, Shrillary: poor little old me, I always get the first question on these issues.
Pardon me while I shed a crocodile tear
Duncan Khuver on February 26, 2008 at 9:19 PM
Hillary just blew it.
“Why do I get the first question” and bringing up SNL? Yeesh.
VolMagic on February 26, 2008 at 9:19 PM
Again why would any human being vote for any of these two loonies?? my god
j0 on February 26, 2008 at 9:20 PM
An angry old lesbo hectoring a know it all lefty radical.
What a great pair of candidates.
I don’t exactly have faith that McCain would lay these two morons out.
benrand on February 26, 2008 at 9:20 PM
Meltdown baby ! I want to see Hillary go all tonya harding on his knee cap !
William Amos on February 26, 2008 at 9:20 PM
NAFTA…Ummmm, how did you advise your husband on this???? All this experience as first lady and all.
sunny on February 26, 2008 at 9:21 PM
She’s got no personality. She needs to stop acting like she does.
She’s not a good actor, either.
yo on February 26, 2008 at 9:21 PM
Was Jenjjis Kon from Massatoosits?
LOL
