I watched and occasionally heard (poor stream) the latest debate. The I read Guy Rundle’s live blog. Rundle won.

It reminded me horribly of Howard & Beazley, one mean & focussed, tuther prolix & waffle. Or worse, given the ameriakn electorate, Mondale & Reagan “I rerspect everything about Mr Reagan…”.
Nobody seems to have noticed McCain’s constant hammering of a single phrase “Sen. Obama doesn’t understand…” He must have said that 20-30 times including variations such as “..naive..”, “..doesn’t get it..”. Also Obama’s use of “John” to someone almost twice his age, title or Sir – that just ain’t acceptable to good ole boys from an uppity nigra/elitist/pointyhead.
This is another walkover for the Repugs. Roll on 2012, if the Aztecs weren’t wrong.

Obama struggling a bit with the surge thing. Mccain is good at bringing it to specifics. That comparison between petraeus and bin laden was just wacky.
