I wish I had been able to go. I initially said that I was going, but my husband ended up in the hospital with pneumonia. He's fine now, btw.

Anyhow. Told me that it was amazing meeting Barack and that McCain had on so much makeup he looked like a corpse. :rofl:

2. LOL. No he wasn't.
Although we DID look for him. He was sitting kind of kitty cornered to Hillary.

4. Did McCain still have on the 'Hot Pink' lipstick?
He looked garish at the debate.

Like my uncle said at an Irish wake where the undertaker did an exceptionally poor job on the corpse, "Billy boy, you got more lipstick on you than my Aunt Margaret."

5. Hahaha I wondered if McCain has an ex-mortician on the Straight Talk Express.

...Somebody with experience, so people will gather around McCain and say: "he looks good".
