The Countdown Begins . . .

So I guess one day isn't much of a countdown, but . . . it is one day until the debates. The presidential debates, that is. Of course, there's not much expectation for Bush now--his spin machine has ensured that the bar is set very low. "Stay the Course!" is their motto. It's not up to you to give a shit about what that course might be. They've got it covered, don't you worry. For a party that's supposed to be, by its very nature, distrusting of government, they sure do expect you to put a lot faith (blindly) in a bunch of people who seem to be fucking things up on a regular basis. (Sorry, perk.) But that's O.K. "VOTE BLINDLY WITH YOUR POCKETBOOOKS!" You'll feel really good about yourself tomorrow, I promise. C'mon, you know you want to.
