He just told a rally in Toledo, "Joe, I'm sorry you're being put through this!" (a reference to "attacks from the Obama campaign")

5. no, we need to watch him for a little while after the election

to find out how much the publicans paid him for this little stunt. if he manages to "buy" himself a business, I bet that's where the money comes from

2. wait

was McCain really the one who brought him up originally in the debate? for some reason I was remembering it as Obama mentioning it and then McCain taking the story and running with it. and then bringing it up another 21 times. if McCain is the one who mentioned him first, then that makes this whole thing even more ridiculous than it already is.

4. Yep, what was it, like five mins in?

Here's the Youtube....

What is unfortunately lost in all of this story is how APTLY Barack handled Joe's question. I think it happened on Sunday and we spent all day Monday or Tuesday talking about what a great answer he gave, how he managed to totally shut Joe's argument down. "I'm worried about the waitress over here making $7 an hour. Her plumbing goes out and she cant pay YOU to fix it." "Well, yeah." Joe replied. Then of course Joe became famous Wed. night.

Anyway, here's the original video if you haven't seen it.

7. oh thank you

yeah i just remembered it wrong. I saw the Joe video before though. I remember hearing about him a couple times before the debate, and you're right, they were praising him.

6. it's Joe, no it's Ayers, no it's socialism, no it's the bogeyman, no it's lack of experience

McCain can only focus on one subject at a time. Will be SOOOO glad when we don't have to hear his daily rants anymore. (your rants are justified...)

10. So is Palin, if I recall her whining last week correctly

Oh well. Hope another disagreement doesn't cause more tension in the McCain camp.
