Great Strategy. McCain & GOP Only Have This Weekend Before Their Big Weekend.
Obama took a lot of poker chips off of McCain's table today. It was brilliant.

Rush Limbaugh's radio show is off the air until Monday.

Sean Hannity's radio show is off the air until Monday.

Bill O'Reilly's radio show is off the air until Monday.

In fact, all of Fox's Monday-Friday lineup of fascist talking heads didn't even get a crack at attacking Obama's choice for VP.

Brilliant. Just brilliant.

And this is the GOP and McCain's only weekend "off" before their big weekend coming up next when they will be preparing for the convention and dealing with last minute snags in that production.

One entire day taken off of their schedule and wasted as they sat poised with their folders on each Democratic VP candidate waiting to shoot their mouths off. Waiting to shoot their mouths off. Waiting to...Waiting.

Yeah, Obama took a day away from them all and put them into a box. He drags today into late tonight or tomorrow and I like that.

Brilliant.

1. The smart move
using himself to protect his Veep in a simple time strategy. Our guys do so many things well. I just wish they will handle some simple big things with the same brilliance. Like getting our votes counted fairly?

3. And what discipline his entire team has.
I've never seen anything as tight-lipped as this.

I do hope this goes into Saturday.

2. Heh. I'm rather enjoying this myself. Bwahahaha! Nice to see a DEMOCRAT controlling the M$M and..
..the national conversation for once - while the Repube gets drug through the mud RE: number of homes he owns.

Democrat - in CONTROL
Republican - National JOKE

It's a good thing.

4. Well, if I am correct, Countdown is having a special broadcast Saturday night.
I haven't heard anything about the Fox shows, but they'd probably have a "special edition" for one of their assholes; in fact, I think there's no way they'd avoid doing it.
