Last debate tonight. This one might be too embarassing to sit through. McCain’s been looking ready for the home on TV lately.

This whole thing with Team McCain telegraphing their punches re: bringing up Ayers at the debate is mind-boggling. It seems Johnny Drama has no choice to bring it up himself if Scheiffer doesn’t raise it. Surely Obama has a ready-made response in any case.
I guess he’s trying to show he’s a tough guy, but when most of the polls are indicating that this kind of thing is turning people off, he looks a lot closer to an idiot.
There would be some sweet justice if Obama/Biden won WV, but I’m very skeptical. Still, the fact that it’s even being discussed is awesome news for John McCain.
@Comrade Jake: Bob Schieffer will be overtly hostile to Obama tonight. His treatment of this campaign has been terrible, and I have been consistently appalled every Sunday morning.

Well, good. As we’ve seen, the more Sen. Obama is attacked, the better he looks, and his favorability rating only rises. If Schieffer and McCain are both hammering on him, he’ll look like the only positive, realistic, calm, responsible adult in the room.
I hope.

"Moggy" is a (mosly UK) nickname for a cat.
It was a (perhaps poor) atttempt on my part to equate you to a little old lady to like to talk about her kitties.

Isn’t that kind of what happened with the last debate when whats-his-name kept barking at Obama about the time but let McCain ramble? I do agree that Obama can more than hold his own in a 2-on-1 situation. He’s the champ.
Uh, sorry, can’t comment much, I’m too busy staring at the fuzzy kitty belly. Must. Scratch. Belly. The power of the belly commands me.

I did a double take when I saw your cat. He/she/it is an almost exact clone of my 7 1/2 year old tabby, Scooter (not named after Libby!) Same markings same g-normous gut same sleeping position, same expression.
Felt as though there’d been a catnapping. Oh, but there is a cat napping, LOL

Someone needs to put that Chunkmeister Putty-Tat on an high protein, canned food only diet. He’s a tank.

Like Kritter, I thought my cat had been catnapped too. I can’t find any immediate evidence to prove the pictured kitteh is not my Hitchcock. Right down to the M for Moggy they’re virtually identical.

Who was it said that if Barack is surrounded he can fire in any direction, while his opponents have to aim?

I thought Moggy was Austalian – a folk singer- can’t recall who- had a song about a road-killed kitty with the lines
"He’s nobody’s Moggy
He’s red and squashed and soggy
And he’s nobody’s Moggy anymore"

Have you seen this cat?
