I did not see it either, but Faux news was showing clips of Chris Matthews wetting his britches over it this morning. I guess all that butter is newsworthy...

In some way it was what you would except. Some sad stories about people down on their luck, sick, losing their houses, etc and how he wants to help. He did not mention McCain 1 time. It was all positive. He told us he would never lie and tell it like it is.

He already lied on financing his campaign. There is no spin there.

Actually it was more of a Bill Belichek interpretation of the Rule.

The masses are marching like zombies to the light. Cool-ade running from their chins, tin foil hats firmly affixed.

Hope..change...he will not lie.

Hope...change...he will not lie.

Hope ...change...he will not lie.


But, on a serious note what building do they have Michelle Obama and Joe Biden tied up in?

I guess it was like most any other infomercial. I saw about 1 minute of it, and asked myself who the heck would waste their time watching this or buy this product?
