Didn't watch any media today. Is the Debate still being spinned as a Tie?
I'm just asking, because I noticed how the fact that McCain suspended his campaign to fly into DC to rescue nothing, and the end up showing up at the debates (without accomplishing what he said he needed to)to then snarl and turn in what I consider to be a subpar lie riddled performance isn't being taken for what it was; a disaster.

So my question is, is the Corporate media still claiming a tie (a bold face lie that shows contempt for Americans)?

2. So I guess the "round tables" at tomorrow's Sundays shows
will be the Conventional Wisdom punditry of Debates.

I hate our corporate media.

6. I made it a point not to watch.
Since I normally don't.

SNL was good back in the 70s....and my kids liked it in the late 90s.....
It is a shadow of its former self, and it inserts itself into our politics
a bit too much for my taste.

I prefer solid consistent comedy like The Daily Show and The Colbert Report.
At least I can count on them to be progressive, as apposed to trying to play
against both sides.

9. I understood him to say McSame won on "points".
He also said Obama proved himself as commander-in-chief.

8. Great to hear.
Cause if they start spinning that "tie" shit tomorrow, I'm gonna want to kick so ass...and I hate that feeling.

If Barack had pulled even half of the shenadigans that McCain has, he'd be so far under the press bus, they'd have to get the Jaws of life to pull him from under.

I hate the media.
