Year in Review-:-)

That's funny....

Could you slow it down just a bit for those of us who didn't PG in the Evelyn Woods course?

Tks.

Keep Truckin Bill.....

God, everytime I see those two words linked together, I get this uncomfortable twinge in the lower tract ...Argh! (It's the extensive history with kidney stones....sorry)

Hobbled as he may be what do you think the chances are that he might just indulge us and keep walking?

Exactly none!

Long Time Coming.....

A most intelligent human being with displayed leadership qualities and an apparent empathy for his fellow man residing in OUR White House?

Oh Heart Be Still..

DUH!

Why should anyone be surprised?

Pond scum always rises to the top.

Carmen Darling.....

Shame on you for that omission....

I could use a break from the Robo calls here in FL.

Projections

Mainer:

Have you taken a peek at Five thirty eight.com yet?

They claim their projections are right the first time....Guess we'll see pdq here.

Interesting site all the same.

Cristo Is No Fool

Times they are a changin....and this guy undoubtedly has national aspiriations.

I will be curious to see just how "close" Florida ends up. Early voting here is fierce and unprecedented in raw numbers. Dem ground troops appears to be on their game with lots of calls to offset the disgraceful Robo campaign...

Original article: The better team?

Who Hot & Who's Not.....

Better team?

I would like to suggest that it's more of the up and down cycle of pitchers and hitters at the most opportune of times..coupled with of course the "I" word......injuries.

BTW, you won't know anything definitive about the injuries t'il the series is over...See: Franconna on Josh Beckett

Rays have cooled off demonstrably from the Red Sox series and whether it's fatigue vs the well rested Phillies it's all about carpe diem from here on in....

No matter how it plays out the Rays have been an inspiring group of young talent all year long so I'm tipping my cap to them.

Meet the Press

God, (It's ok... it's Sunday) If I hear that "My Friends" salutation one more time I'm gonna puke....

Now with regard to "Meet the Press," I have a great idea and that is for McGrump to pass on the next invite to "Ms. Word Salad," his running mate

and let her fulfill the reasonable and requisite criteria of at least one legitimate press conference before the polls close.....And close they shall and soon too....

Please Come To Florida

What a crock of shit! The race card has been played just under the covers if not openly here in Florida for six months..or more.

As an independent voter formerly from NYC, I was approached almost a year ago by people speaking in code.

They approached me again late this past Spring and I can assure you it was pretty transparent...

Maybe that's why I seem to be receiving an extra heaping tablespoon of Robo Calls...:-)

BTW those telephone filters aren't doing a damn thing for Rudy's linguistics either.

The good news is that people down here are lining up like crazy to vote early.

No-No Na Newt

Newt, you need an extended TIME OUT someplace remote, really remote and PLEASE take those morons from FOX with you along with the campaign slogans and that Drill baby Drill drivel too....

The McGrump/Failin ticket will probably go down in history as one of the most ill-conceived, moronic and poorly excuted political campaigns of all time.

It's trash talkin and robo calls.....period.

Lot of substance there.

It's only fitting that follow the seated president in that regard as well....

For that matter take him with you too. No one will miss his early exit a damn bit.

Have a safe trip

SWF Rolling Out the Vote

Hi Greetings from Naples Florida

The Naples Daily News (Collier County Rag) has reverted to quoting AP all of a sudden which is kind of amusing since they have historical challenges tabulating sports writers and Heisman Trophy balloting...

Anyway, they have it all-even this morning which is a bit of head scratcher to me especially with all the early voting that is going on here in Southwest Florida. Unprecedented numbers daily now....Very exciting, but the McGrump/Failin base is getting very nasty.

:-)

Onward!

Stir the Pot

WOW and there you have it....

I hope her flag pin didn't melt....

Damn, if those Log Cabin Boyz aren't at it again...

For shame on ye.....

Hypocrisy I say...

Precious Indeed

Finally a sans flag pin wearing American with some ballz.

While her methods may be somewhat ill-advised, I applaud her anyway for some good old fashioned what my dearly deparated mom would have referred to as "gumption."

Guess I'm in trouble now, but it's not like I'm unfamilar to that neighborhood either.

Caribou Barbie

TS:

Nicely done, but you are being way too kind....

Ms. Palin is a more than willing pawn on a political game board inspired by Dobson, Davis et al willing to say and do whatever in support of their transparent agenda.

My sense of her is that she really doesn't care about much.....

Change...indeed.

Sunday, October 19, 2008 09:52 AM

Endorsement ......Indeed!

Gen. Powell and his rousing endorsement of Senator Obama struck me as what a wise and experienced statesman of this country should sound like in 2008.

And a life long Republican as well....

God, there might be hope for them after all....

Thursday, October 16, 2008 05:10 PM

Holy Water Anyone?

I'd be considering some kind of alternate mojo for this seat..other than the stupidity presently being employed....

A Bitter Old Man

Joe....Please leave the building now before we all get sick from the back flush.

Promises....Promises

Thanks Charlie that's a couple of good interviews for you in a row....:-)

BOOOOOOOO

Feel sorry for the woman as she has real problems with basic inalienable rights like free speech....

We do that alot here in the lower forty-eight too as she no doubt found out in Philadelphia on Satruday night....:-)

Frankly she's due for some new response material as she is getting old awfully fast...

Oh Nuts!

A classic GOTCHYA moment...
