In other words, 

&lt;blockquote&gt;ACORN, dont&#039; fail me now..&lt;/blockquote&gt;

		<description>Obama is going to have to walk on water. If he stubs his toe, the press will be on him like fire on dry tinder.

They&#039;ve annointed him.

They&#039;ve put him at the right hand of God.

If he doesn&#039;t live up to the hyype, they&#039;ll want no part of the blame.

Which they fully deserve, of course.</description>

		<description>McCain or the RNC or some 527 should put together an ad about the Obama thuggery and tie it into Obama&#039;s new politics message.

Conclude it with Palin, the most vilifiled, saying, &quot;Shame on you, Barack Obama and Joe Biden for what you and your supporters have done during this campaign.&quot;</description>

		<description>Obama refuses to attend Fox debate.  Murdoch meets with him.  Ted Baxter does Obama interview where he squeezes out the &quot;tough&quot; answers like &quot;Well Bill, what can I tell you?&quot;.  Fox All Stars start dumping on Palin.  Obama makes statement he would be several points more ahead if it wasn&#039;t for Fox.  Fox claims Obama won the debate where McCain clearly won big.  Now, WSJ (Noonan) dumps on Palin again.

Anybody wonder what kind of agreement Murdoch and Obama reached?

		<description>Addendum to the above comment...

Peggy Noonan was inspired by President Reagan yet did not learn one of RWR&#039;s standing edicts, that being, not to speak ill of another republican. Unfortunately, she isn&#039;t alone this election cycle. Brooks, Frum, Will, and baby Buckley aren&#039;t principled, either!</description>

		<description>Hawkdriver @ 12:19

&quot;Ms.&quot; Noonan seems to be one of the bow tie wearing (no offense to bow ties) northeast republican elites that can&#039;t relate to regular Americans, and in their aristocratic manner can&#039;t understand why conservatives and others are excited by the fresh face of Governor Palin. I propose that Peggy put down the whine and cheese and just go suck on a lemon!


btw, I have a friend that gets around in a blackhawk, he&#039;s currently at Ft. Riley...</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;Palin&#039;s Failin&#039;
What is it she stands for? After seven weeks, we don&#039;t know.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

So Pegster, We&#039;re you lying when you tried to claim you were taken out of context live, off camera, or are you lying now? Or are you just another wine and cheese ass-clown.

Here&#039;s to egg on your smug, washed-up liberal mug on Nov 5TH!</description>

It&#039;s so he doesn&#039;t have to play off Clinton&#039;s campaign debt.

&quot;Hill, yeah, it&#039;s Barrack. Baaaarrrack! Bar-rak Oba-ma? Yeah about that campaign debt I was going to help you retire. You see the thing is, Minnesota was just so much for tougher than we thought it was going to be. Uh-huh, DC and Hawaii too. Sorry Hill, so...I gotta go. Uh yep...and give Bubba, er Bill my best.&quot;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;Did Barack &quot;Spread the Wealth&quot; Obama Just Blow the Election?
October 16, 2008 11:37 AM ET &#124; James Pethokoukis
 
No. Really. You&#039;re kidding me. Barack Obama actually told that Joe the Plumber guy that he wants to &quot;spread the wealth around.&quot; What, did Obama just get done reading the Wikipedia entry on Huey &quot;Share the Wealth&quot; Long or something? Was he somehow channeling that left-wing populist from the Depression? Talk about playing into the most extreme stereotype of your party, that it is infested with socialists.

A while back I chatted with a University of Chicago professor who was a frequent lunch companion of Obama&#039;s. This professor said that Obama was as close to a full-out Marxist as anyone who has ever run for president of the United States. Now, I tend to quickly dismiss that kind of talk as way over the top. My working assumption is that Obama is firmly within the mainstream of Democratic politics. But if he is as free with that sort of redistributive philosophy in private as he was on the campaign trail this week, I have no doubt that U of C professor really does figure him as a radical. And after last night&#039;s debate, a few more Americans might think that way, too. McCain&#039;s best line: &quot;Now, of all times in America, we need to cut people&#039;s taxes. We need to encourage business, create jobs, not spread the wealth around.&quot;

&lt;strong&gt;And by the way, I just noticed that the IBD/TIPP poll, the most accurate in 2004, has McCain down by just 3 points. If the contest is perceived by the voters as a contest between a wealth redistributor and a wealth creator, then it could be a long night come Nov. 4. This is still a center-right country, gang. Note this Gallup poll from June:

When given a choice about how government should address the numerous economic difficulties facing today&#039;s consumer, Americans overwhelmingly—by 84% to 13%—prefer that the government focus on improving overall economic conditions and the jobs situation in the United States as opposed to taking steps to distribute wealth more evenly among Americans.&lt;/strong&gt;

There you go.&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>
