This is gonna go down as one of my fav. days of the entire campaign.

[Clio the Leo]

First Biden KICKED NATURAL HIND END with his foreign policy speech this morning..... which right now seems like it happened five years ago.

Then Barack's rally where he leaves the stage to the tune of "Put me in Coach." (how APPROPRIATE was that today!)

Which was of course followed by the greatest temper tantrum in political history.

And capped off with Barack giving a statement that not only SHUT down McCain's hissy fit but has given me renewed confidence in his ability to handle himself in the debate Friday which he just TOLD US IS GONNA HAPPEN!!!!

Thank the Lord or my boss or whomever is responsible for me being off from work today!!!! WOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

Sadly, I know I will soon wake up and it's really Sept 10th and McCain is ahead five points in the polls because of that Palin twit. grrrrr

1. Me too!

I am very, very glad that I am still in the country for this. We leave for Greece tomorrow. I would have been DYING if I couldn't have seen the responses to this latest boneheaded move!

[Rabrrrrrr]

2. I've been away doing other stuff - what's the temper tantrum?

[Muttocracy]

4. McCain wants to delay the Friday debate. nt

[Clio the Leo]

6. In honor of this UK article i'm quoting I'll say that McCain "spit the dummy".....

.... which is actually an Australian term I think, but close enough...

John McCain pulls the old 'let's suspend the campaign' trick

John McCain is so maverick that he wants to suspend the election campaign and postpone Friday's debate so that he can return to Washington and help broker a deal on the bailout. According to experts, this is actually the most absurd, impetuous and nakedly disingenuous suggestion that has ever been made in the history of politics, including Ancient Greece and the rudimentary organisational systems archeologists have identified in the lives of early man.

(sigh, I just LOVE hyperbole .... esp. when it's TRUE!!!)

And you have to couple this with the report ... on Fox no less ....... that McCain has dropped BELOW the 40 % mark in some polls.

HAPPY HAPPY DAY!!!!
