Default Are McCain and Palin trying to procure the assassination of Barack Obama?
It certainly seems so, given the rabble they've both been rousing in recent rallies, with claims that he's an associate of terrorists.

Need a 4th option.

Playing the game but not trying to get him killed. Mudslinging politics but not illegal.

The "it's all right really" leads me to believe that I would be endorsing their actions, which I don't.

I think they're trying to make something happen, anything, that maybe they can then use to get out of the hole they're in - even if it's destructive.

From what I have seen at today's debate Obama just has to sneak up behind McCain - shout 'BO' loudly and it will all probably be over

Then it is Palin versus Obama for president

What do you mean today's debate?

It was last night's debate.

The fact that you live on the wrong side of the date line is your problem.

USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!

Bullshit ........ I watched it after lunch. You people do not even know whether it is night or day - let alone what day it is.

My problem is that, even though I do not get to pull a lever on those high tec voting machines of yours, I am still forced to listen to the bullshit sprouted by the two faction leaders (or rather, the public faces of their nameless puppet masters) of the corporate party.

Obviously Obama will win as it is now time to change the deckchairs.

Probably a bit closer to the bone now as that ship is really starting to sink.

Incidentally when they shout USA, USA USA etc do you not realise that they are shouting U Stupid Assholes?
