The dregs. That's what this is. The lukewarm coffee grounds at the bottom of the cup. McCain's got nothing else.

Like McShame partied in Saigon with R.W. Apple while his shipmates burned to death on the U.S.S. Forrestal?

Hey, I heard that Obama, Ayers and Streisand were overheard toasting infanticide at an ACORN benefit held at a gay mosque in Burbank. The American people deserve to know the truth about this!

Hey, all... just an FYI there is some news on Iraq today.

Yep, Obama, Bush, and al-Maliki all agree we should withdraw. McCain is meanwhile still holding out for victory, victory as HE defines it....

OT: Is there a search function on 538.com? I want to re-read the little piece Nate did on the 2 different Gallup models and can't for the life of me find it.

This is laughable on so many fronts. First, the Hollywood thing really only plays well with the base...and they ain't voting for Obama - never were, never will. Second, people already have solidified their impressions of how Obama reacted/presented himself during the early and scariest days of the financial crisis. They were impressed and they thought he did a better job than McCain. This won't change their impressions. Third - this coming from a guy who suspended his campaign and talked about canceling the debate. Obama spent a few hours at a fundraiser but McCain tried to pull off what was widely viewed as a gimmick. Last, they're sending this out during a week that McCain is on Letterman and the McCain campaign is working on getting Palin on SNL? Who's more Hollywood here?

This just won't work. It's not even worth responding to except in the sense that Jonze suggests - use this and all of the other desperate McCain attacks to a) point out how desperate McCain is, and b) show voters how out of touch McCain is - their 401ks are losing half their value or more and McCain is talking about Barbra? Come on!

Ayers didn't work. This won't work. The only thing that might have any impact is the ACORN stuff because it has a racial twist - ie, poor, lazy black folks trying to steal the election from Joe the Plumber and other hard-working white Americans. But I think even that one will fall flat. If race was in any way driving your decision re: who you are voting for this year, you've already made up your mind...and you weren't going to be voting for Obama anyway.

The Republican party has inherited the mantle of racist voter intimidation once worn by the segregationist South. Hopefully, Obama's seeking the AG's help in prosecuting this vis the 1965 Voting Rights Act will send a chill up a few spines (if there any left).

The GOP is being ruled right now by the most vile elements in American politics and any so-called "moderate" or sane Repugs who stay silent are enablers of these crimes.

I think a good ad would be to show Obama saying he wonders why McCain won't say these things to his face, cut to McCain claiming that he's denounced every instance of Republican hyperbole, then a string of the reprehensible crap said at McCain-Palin rallies, followed by a news report on the robocalls.

Then end it with a question -- "Where's John McCain, now that he doesn't have to stand face-to-face with Senator Obama? Hiding behind robots and his running mate?"

I used to respect John McCain, which is why it's so disappointing to see him sell his integrity for 30 pieces of silver and shot at the prize.

Man, imagine not being there during a major American crisis.

Each desperate act further splinters the Patridiotic Party.

Hollywood always get a bum rap. I'm telling you, come to Hollywood. It's much more of a shithole than most middle America people realize. And it's a place I currently call my home.

John McCain was being spoonfed cake by George W. Bush while New Orleans drowned. Again, he's got no credibility left.

This ad appeals only to the folks in this video:

Meanwhile, I just early-voted in Northern Virginia. Lots of folks there. It felt good.

Wowee. Lame.

Perhaps I'm out of touch, but last time I checked, Hollywood was actually IN and PART OF America.

But that's just me.

See who's just been inducted into the Hypocrites Hall of Infamy

They're doing the robo calls here in New Hampshire. They just had the head of the NH Repub party on our local public radio station denouncing the calls. I thought for a minute (second?) that maybe the guy actually had a conscience, but no, he thinks theys should be pulled because they're a waste of money.

So, let's bring out McCain ate birthday cake with Bush while NOLA drowned!

Breaking News: Chicago Tribune Endorses Obama!

For the first time in its history, the Chicago Tribune has endorsed a Democrat for President - stating among other things that, in selecting Palin, "McCain has put his campaign before his country."

So there!

(I'll get my avatar & other mechanics organized after the election. We're heavily into phone banking, canvassing, GOTV)

The original Hollywood elitist was Ronald Reagan and the GOP loved him. He might not have continued to party w/ the Hollywood elite but Frank Sinatra spent his share of quality time w/ Nancy.

LOL
This is ridiculous.
