BYOB - Debate Nigh... Or Not

Not on the subject of the debate, but tonight's "South Park" had an outstanding, and unexpected, "Snatch" homage. Come to think of it, in some ways, it was the perfect episode for a debate night given the deflection of certain truths in which Cartman indulged.

Stick a fork in McCain. He's done.

Mccain had his best performance but he looked genuinely frightening on the split screen while Obama was talking.

McCain does come across as a man whose more afraid of Obama winning, then his losing. Which is rather freakin weird. I could have sworn you want to win the presidency more than wanting the other guy to lose. McCain is just strange.

A lot of McCain's remarks were along the lines of "I earned this, it's mine!"

It's over, barring a last-minute Osama Bin Laden endorsement.

while i hate to sound like the old man in the room (although, i think i am) this is not the time for complacency or a time to believe polls ('bradley effect', anyone?)....
i agree that mccain looked scary but it was the kind of scary that bunch likes...and i'm thinking this is going to be much closer than most of us hope.....

Since when did Down syndrome become autism?

Scoot: if it's close, that's pathetic. This country needs to send a resounding message among the lines of; "THIS WILL NOT STAND!" I am hoping the US will send a resounding message, that the world is desperate to receive.

I am also of the opinion that independents are not buying what McCain is selling. He's simply too much for them. So they are rejecting him for a guy who does not grit his teeth, laughs on attacks, and respond to these serious times with proposals that do not give the rich 4 years of time off.

Intentional or not, there's a nice little shot in tonight's South Park (along with requisite line) from There Will Be Blood too. Great episode. Only Cartman could end that in delusion.

Aladdin: I also liked the TWBB reference, and it wasn't the line most people reading your comment might think it was. And Cartman's delusional rant at the end was vintage Eric.

I'm guessing the hangover prevented you from coming up with something better.

Posted by: jeffmcm [TypeKey Profile Page] at October 16, 2008 04:18 PM

I want to make the important announcement that THE LEXMAN is officially registered to vote and is going to do so.

FUCK YEAH.

In the words of Joseph Gordon Levitt: "I HAVE THE POWER! I HAVE THE POWER!"

Welcome to adulthood, Lex. Well, sort of. Good for you.

Somebody owes you a lap dance if you follow through. (If I were him, I'd accompany you to the polling place.)

Posted by: frankbooth [TypeKey Profile Page] at October 16, 2008 07:10 PM

Oh shit.

Posted by: christian [TypeKey Profile Page] at October 16, 2008 07:49 PM

Ha ha!

Looking forward to your blog entry about the evening.

At least you didn't offer to buy his drinks for the night.

Wait, JAMES MARSDEN is in "Sex Drive"?

Does this mark the first time in his career he ISN'T playing a Brylcream-lacquered pretty boy leading-man parody in a camp-skewing chick flick?

Just odd to see the guy in a horndog sex comedy.
