Did McCain "jump the shark" today. It seems so to me.

[yellowcanine]

Obama attack ad skewers his sleazy campaign tactics.
McCain "steps in it" with "economic fundamentals are sound" talk.
Taunts union workers about not being able to pick lettuce for $50 an hour in Arizona.
His campaign says Sarah will not meet with troopergate investigator.

[justiceischeap]

1. Did he repeat the $50 an hour thing TODAY? n/t

[yellowcanine]

7. Maybe not. I am using "today" loosely.

[grantcart]

2. He was also stuttering through his written remarks - like he didn't agree with them

[Happyhippychick]

3. He's losing his McBearings

[NYC_SKP]

19. LOL!

:rofl:

He's off his fuckin' McRocker!

[Curtland1015]

4. This could, in the long run, end up being a VERY good day for us.

We'll see later, I guess. But his "the fundamentals are strong" line, the HERBERT HOOVER line, said just hours before the stock market took a nosedive, could honestly end up being a defining moment. It all depends how Obama/Biden and, yes, the press handle it.

[lligrd]

5. Somebody Should Send McCain "The Grapes Of Wrath"

Or does his war injury prevent him from reading too?

[SharonAnn]

14. He sounded like Pres. Hoover in 1929 with "The fundamentals are sound ..."

I seriously think that Obama should be able to pull that together in an ad really quickly.

And point out what FDR had to do to get the economy going again and how McCain and his economic advisor have been the leaders in removing the FDR era regulations.

Yup, that should just about do it.

Put a fork in McCain. He's done!

Economic depression cannot be cured by legislative action or executive pronouncement. Economic wounds must be healed by the action of the cells of the economic body - the producers and consumers themselves.
Herbert Hoover

It is just as important that business keep out of government as that government keep out of business.
Herbert Hoover

Let me remind you that credit is the lifeblood of business, the lifeblood of prices and jobs.
Herbert Hoover

Prosperity cannot be restored by raids upon the public Treasury.
Herbert Hoover

With impressive proof on all sides of magnificent progress, no one can rightly deny the fundamental correctness of our economic system.

21. Can we PLEASE change back the name of Boulder Dam to it's original name NOW?!?! PLEASE!!!

[symbolman]

6. What is this about Pork Barrel Palin NOT Meeting

with the TrooperGate Investigator?

She's not been served papers?

[medicswife]

8. No, no papers to Palin yet....

But her husband and 12 others have been served.

[yellowcanine]

10. The investigator did not issue a subpeona because earlier she voluntarily agreed to meet with him.

She is now apparently stiffing him. I think it is subpeona time for Sarah.

[Cosmic Charlie]

9. When AC360 is talking about "McCain's lies", he is in the middle of a shitstorm

Anderson doesn't make waves
he only talks about the inevitable

[JenniferJuniper]

11. Yes, when you've lost Anderson "Milquetoast" Cooper,

you've lost the country. Not because he has any influence, mind you; it's as you say. He's only reading the writing on the wall.

[Cosmic Charlie]

12. you read my mind, I almost typed milquetoast

[JenniferJuniper]

13. LOL. It's the perfect word for him. N/T

[Lex]

15. Even a Faux Noise anchor was defending Barack

today. :wtf:

[noel711]

16. Oh honey, that shark's BEEN jumped!

Let's see,

Was it making 'nice' with Jerry Fawlwell at Liberty U.??

Was it being trailed around by Lieberman whispering in his ear?

Was it embracing W. at a speech?

No.. I think the moment of the greatest leap known to man,
was the selection of that pompous freak from Alaska,
you know.. what's-her-name?

[yellowcanine]

17. Actually it is Sarah Palin selected by Mc What's his Name? I believe ther will be fundies who will

be confused when they do not find Palin's name listed first, that is how clueless some are.

[MichDem10]

18. He's to old to jump!

:bounce:

[Tutonic]

20. Fundamentally sound?! Obama needs to get a commercial on

the air NOW to repeat Grampy's words. The man must be part of the walking dead! Unfreakinbelievable!

[TheDonkey]

22. McClown is imploding. Democrats need to capitalize.

Forget the Palin sideshow. The real event is McClown imploding.
