Grumpy Old Man



Last nights debate was certainly the most entertaining of any debate this season between John and Barack (and Sarah and Joe for that matter). However, John McCain came off looking like a grumpy old asshole. I think he tried to attack McCain quite a bit - but its kinda like punching a brick wall at this point. You may get a good hit or two in, but its your own hand and not the wall that is hurting afterwards. John McCain spills bile from his mouth, and looks about 4 days over 700 years old. I think Barack won this debate, every debate, and will win the election.

However, according to the polls, against most odds, John McCain is getting closer to Barack Obama. He trails 49-43 percent in Thursday's Gallup Poll, a 4-percentage point gain in four days. What was a 51-41 percent lead for Obama last weekend has gone down, with no real explanation. In fact, Obama for the first time in more than two weeks dipped below the winning 50 percent figure. But McCain continues to hang around in the national polls, at least, while losing ground in some battleground states, which will decide the election most assuredly.

Don't ever underestimate the evil republican party.
