Geez, my suck-o-meter and bullsh*t-o-meter are ringing so loud they're making my head hurt.

Total "barfed in my mouth count" - 32. Yours?

17. Told you all that Tweety would turn. He was pretending to be nice all
last week. Pretending to like Obama. Oh and fat chance Tweety! We have oodles of video, picture and McCain's actual words that tie him to Bush.

10. OMG Barracuda is playing, I am assuming this means Palin is up next
Edited on Thu Sep-04-08 10:11 PM by carlyhippy
oh dear, the barracuda theme song always reminds me of a wrestler chick entering the ring at the WWF....
but the part of mccain's speech about him being in his cell and not able to feed himself and the other prisoners fed him was actually heart wrenching.

12. I really don't think he was impressive and hopefully whatever bounce
he may have recieved from Palin was mitigated tonight by his crazy comments about going after unions and other nonesense.

13. I am now dumber for having heard it ...
Edited on Thu Sep-04-08 10:22 PM by RoyGBiv
What McCain just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I've ever heard. At no point in his rambling, incoherent tirade was there anything that could even remotely be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this world is now dumber for having listened to it. I award him no points, and may God have mercy on his soul.

15. Yes, dreadful. No policies, just cliche after cliche.
Bad delivery, crowd that obviously don't care for him much. Never has one man taken so long to say so little.

16. Agree but what's up with Tweety? He thinks McZombie will get a bounce!
No way with this whitey hate fest of theirs.

Lame lame lame and the MSNBC guys are pretending it was okay.

Please give me Rachel quick or I'll have to change channels.

21. Way more than 32 here actually...

22. It was just dreadful
Hard to believe Matthews could be so off on this. I didn't watch the whole thing, 5 minutes here and there was all I could take, but it all had the same droning quality. I think he just undid all the energy that Barracuda brought last night.

20. He's a horrible speaker.. just like Palin. There's no way either of them would deliver a
"successful" speech in front of anyone but rabid supporters.

24. Personally, I thought it was hilarious...
funny and pathetic at the same time. I actually laughed out loud a number of times, even though there was nobody here but me. That was absolutely the most "me-too" convention speech I've heard in my life!

Okay, my friends (if I may use the expression), now we can finally say: "When the voters are given a choice between a real Democrat and a fake one, they'll pick the real one every time." McCain trying to come off as a reformer, an enemy of politics as usual, was the most pathetic thing I've ever heard in my life.

I loved it when the Code Pink lady and the other protester interrupted his speech too. How on earth did they ever manage to get in there?

Also, the booing when McCain trotted out the 20-year-old party line about he's going to "lower taxes and create jobs" while Obama will "raise your taxes" sounded so phony and half-hearted and so obviously COACHED. That was one of the parts where I laughed out loud, because it was the most canned and un-spontaneous booing I've ever heard in my life!

Those are just a few of the absurdities I can think of off the top of my head. By tomorrow morning the pundits and bloggers (not to mention the rest of DU) will have pulverized that speech.

And people are bored with the POW approach by now. He needed something new, and didn't deliver.
