Good morning, rodguy!

Mid 40's here last night. It was so cold that Democrats kept their hands in their own pockets for a change.

[Bahbah]

the deck is stacked and not in his favor. I don't think I would have allowed this debate. Timmah is not neutral.

It is all very clear listening to Tim batter Allen on Iraq. Allen is not allowing his feathers to be ruffled.

[maica]

Watching Fox - Negroponte is relaxed and treating Wallace's 'hardhitting' questions like he is playing a tennis match with a grossly inferior player.

[maineman]

As in the past debates...it is 2 libs. vs. one Republican. I would have to pass on a MTP debate if I were a Rep.

[Morgan in Denver]

I hope Boehner repeats his charges and gives examples. It's about time our side stood up for ourselves more.

[mainepatsfan]

Webb seems to be making sure he gets a nice review in the NYT tomorrow.

[maineman]

Is Timmy running?

[anita]

Thanks, Rod. I remember that. Our people at the front know much better than what the media report.

See how an Army staff sergeant [returned after serving in Iraq] views our President:

"They can take back every medal I've received, just for according me the honor to shake his hand." [Army staff sergeant Brian L. Little was invited for breakfast with President on 9/11.]

We have to know this not from the network media or print-media, but Mike Allen's blog.

[Carolinamom]

Chris Wallace is imitating Russert today.

[defconw]

He's holding it together, but notice how mauch more time Webb is getting.

[rockrr]

You'll get no criticism from me. Powell acts as though he studied at the Jummuh Cahter school of international studies. I never liked him - before he joined the Bush administration, during his terrible performance as SOS, and especially now.

He is showing his true colors now and no self respecting Conservative should ever turn their backs on him because he is a self-serving opportunist.

A pox on Colon Powell...

[mainepatsfan]

"Incomplete pass....no wait a flag for pass interference...no wait the ball was tipped...we pick the flag up...never mind."

[defconw]

Glad to hear it.

[Bahbah]

A fluff report for the ladies who do not have MTP yet...Senator Allen is looking quite handsome.

[maineman]

How would troop reduction bring stability to Iraq???
Sounds like a good time for a follow-up.

[Bahbah]

notice how mauch more time Webb is getting.

Nor does Timmy constantly interrupt and challenge him. He just lets him run on.

[anita]

Iowa trade markets already turned on our side. President just getting warming up. Next full month, he 'll be campaigning all over the Country.

[defconw]

That would have been smart I think, a couple of days of taunting then everyone would forget about it.

[Peach]

Does anyone know which appeals court is getting the SCOTUS/Hamdi ruling appeal? And does anyone have any idea when the hearing will be held?

[mainepatsfan]

Any non-RINO Republican knows perfectly well how hostile an appearance on MTP will be. Allen seems to be prepared.
