You can become Batman: http://www.martialdevelopment.com/blog/becoming-batman-an-achieveable-goal/ So why not run for President as a day job?

Scott. I have 3 kids. The last diaper sound bite made me fall off my chair laughing. If you are ever out in Cornwall (U.K.), and want to come over for a BBQ, let me know! Mark

Don't you think it's interesting that the best (only?) soundbite that you came up with for McCain appealed to people's irrationality, rather than to anything the least bit substantive? One would almost think that you thought the voters were stupid...

I'm with It's Dave on this one. Obama sucks. McCain sucks. "A tax payer voting for Obama is like a chicken voting for Col. Sanders." Leaves but one choice then.

Either candidate: "At least I'm not Bush."

You should check out the hilarious Jib Jab video. It features Obama on a Unicorn and McCain in a tank. It's al set to the tune of "The Times They Are a-Changin'" but instead it says, "It's Time For Some Campaignin'".

DNC: Vote early and often. McCain: Elect me and I'll give back my Social Security. Obama: Who's your daddy?

Batman's slogan : " White creamy filling inside a Hard black shell" McCain : "Waterboarding? Phhht...I slept through that " Obama : " It's time the Whitehouse had a new paintjob " Google : terryplanet

Are you receiving less comments here than at the old site? I used to comment at the old site, but this is the first time I am commenting here. Anyway, what I think would be cool is, if you can post the same poll at your site and enable your regular readers to participate in it. This way, you can also test if the miracle of aggregation actually works and what the deviances of your regular readers to your panel of expert economists are.

"Change is good until it's your turn to be the diaper." This is interesting the more I think about it. Elections are about redistributing scarce resources and people taking turns to pay taxes, take fewer govt. services, etc. Yet it doesn't have to be. All we have to do is drill for oil off shore and other places, drive down the cost of gas, which automatically lowers taxes because people automatically pay less sales taxes when the prices of foods, and other items go down. No tax-cuts need to be passed, but no taxes need to be increased because everyone can buy things again and improve the economy, reducing the need for govt. services. This will be good for liberatarians, too, because every body could afford a household where they can live as their values decide. I'm looking forward towards the day we don't need the two parties anymore. Forget the oil buddies arguement--I AM an OIL BUDDIE!

Last Italian elections, a man yelled "only idiots would vote for [main opposing political faction]", instantly insulting some millions of voters. That man is our current Prime Minister. There's a flaw in your catchphrase. =)

@ It's Dave RE: "The move in question, of course, is Obama trying to explain why he's been endlessly advocating we surrender in a war we are winning. Uh-huh. Brilliant." Actually, Dave, "surrender" is a total misconception. Imagine this: Billy thinks David is telling lies about him in class. Billy goes over to David's house when David is alone, and beats David up. While he's beating David, who doesn't put up much of a struggle, his friend phones him and says "You should really leave, David's parents (ie, the world pointing fingers) may come home soon." Billy, being smart, decides he has punished David enough for the lies he thought David had told about him in class. So Billy picks up his backpack, accepts the scratches on his arm from pummeling David and making sure he can never really walk again, and goes home. It's not surrendering, Dave, it's pulling out. "Winning" -- well, was there ever any doubt there would be a loss? It's won. Saddam is dead. How many more Americans do you think need to die before a clear "victory" is reached, and what do you consider a clear victory? Americans like you stick the country in a bad position, geopolitically, and give internationalized Americans a bad rep for being supporters of warmongering. Uh huh, brilliant.

Telling voters they are stupid would hit where it hurts the most. As they say, you can ruffle somebody's hair, but don't you dare touch his toupee. If a candidate ever used 'voter' and 'stupid' in the same sentence, it would be blown up into a big issue by the media and he would ultimately be made to apologize to the 'stupid' public. In short, never mind if your opponent really thinks that voters are stupid, it is you who would have to apologize for saying so. This is modern day ethics, without any relevance to truth or integrity - what matters is simply the appearance of things.

For McCain: Cancerous but still mostly continent--you should have gone with snarky for your user name! I will most likely vote for McCain, but I am still chuckling!
