I'd pay to see Gen. Tommy Franks debate that G.I. Joe faced Clinton kissass Clark.

I just caught something I thought very interesting. At the beginning of each of the debates, the moderator announced that they hadn't told anyone the questions.

A few minutes ago on CBS's Sunday morning program, Bob Scieffer gave credit to a 25 year old female producer (I didn't catch the name) for the question about strong women. Paraphrasing: A few days before the debate (during a meeting) my 25 year old producer said, "You don't have a single question about women." Obviously, she knew the questions.

I trusted the moderators to not compromise their integrity by sharing the questions with a campaign. I would not extend that trust to the entire organization. For the record, that is like trusting Mary Mapes (another CBS producer) to not share the questions.

Jeb says to Stephanopoulos that he will NOT run in 2008.

Steph asks Ed Rendell about the polls showing Bush is expected to win by around 56% of people polled. He cites margin of error! Then says new voter registrations will take care of things. New voters aren't polled. (Probably too dead to talk back.)

Where is Bush strong in PA? In the core, says Rendell. Also in the suburbs because of security and terrorism.

Kerry must do as well as Gore did in PA, he says. There aren't enough votes in the rest of the state to overcome Philadelphia. Trend's going Dem. Biggest deficit in history...

Has Kerry convinced? Rendell dodges this.

White Catholics? are you worried? ER says no, they opposed him and he won.

Fear-mongering. Pre-emptive legal strike quote. Scare tactics? ER admits the hosing ad is over the top but stands firm on the rest. There IS voter intimidation and being ready is the best defense.

Jeb says his brother's going to unite the country after he's elected. ER: Well I hope so. LOL.

The desperation of the Kerry campaign is becoming more evident every day. And that desperation was on display today on MTP. Bob Shrum is one of the most meanspirited Democrat hacks alive. Sending Shrum out to promote and defend John Kerry is a clear indication that the Senators campaign believes they are in trouble and on the verge of losing the election. NO DOUBT ABOUT IT!

I just heard Rudy Guliani burn a hole right through Bob Sheifer on the radio version of CBS Face the Nation!!!

He was boiling over with righteous indignation at both the woman, whoever she was and Sheifer at their stupid Kerry like postulations!!!

It was music to my Kerry/Edwards fatigued ears!!!

Rudy made abject fools out of them!!!

I'd love to have a tape of that show...

I was able to catch the Demint / Tenenbaum appearance with Russert. I thought Little Tim was a bit rough on Demint, but my overwhelming impression was that those poor South Carolinians are in one helluva shape for candidates. Looks like another of those lesser of two goofy idiots kind of choices.

On the other hand, ABH -- anybody but Hollings.
