You’re probably right about debates. I’d rather have them stake the election on shooting a game of “horses” on the basketball court. However, I still think the juxtaposition of candidates should work strongly in Obama’s favor.

I see some potential wiggle room in the rasmussen poll. If someone would get off their arses, and point out that rubber stamp susan=bush who has serious unfavorability ratings in Maine.

I watched the Kennedy-Nixon debates and I thought my guy (Kennedy) won, but it was close and anyone supporting Nixon could easily have gone the other way. Bunch of crap about Quemoy and Matsu. The debates were degraded and degrading from the get-go, and haven’t changed, unless if possible, for the worse.

Nate at 538 on Maine race:

Maine remains more viable as a competitive state, but is not really coming together for Tom Allen, as Rasmussen showed Susan Collins holding onto a 10-point lead whereas SMS Atlantic — in a now somewhat dated survey — had her ahead by fully 25 points. Allen’s fundraising has been quite good, and there is still a lot of money to be spent in this race, but I don’t see the angle for defeating Collins, as both Mainers and Collins are a little too sophisticated to be taken by the “Ooga Ooga Republican Bad!” line of argumentation.

What you don’t want to change Vitters diapers? And make sure the “right” cocktail is handy when he comes to the door?

McBush and Dobson- seventy year old powerhouses- are leading a geezer rebellion against the young and slender Obama who still remembers his name and phone number:

James Clayton “Jim” Dobson (born April 21, 1936 in Shreveport, Louisiana) is an American evangelical Christian and chairman of the board of Focus on the Family, a nonprofit organization he founded in 1977, from which he has never drawn a salary, but which has promoted his related books and publications, yielding him substantial royalties.

Man, with “Guys” like them everywhere, it’d be easy to “turn”.
