AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!! You poor thing! Don't worry . . . I'll drink enough for both of us!

Definitely rep' for me! I'll drink a glass of OJ and pretend it's a mimosa.

My mom is visiting, and the three of us (husband included) are so excited. We've got baked potatoes in the oven and soda chillin' in the fridge. We know how to party.

Moon, are you still at work? If so, can you watch online too?

 

[Irishgrrrl]

Wow, guys . . . the debate doesn't even start for another hour, and we've already got three pages on this thread!!!

I'm watching "20/20: Portrait of a President" right now. Diane Sawyer just got done talking about McCain's childhood, and I think she's going to discuss Obama's after the current commercial break.

ETA: Oh, yeah . . . and I may have started drinking already!

 

[Krissie]

Ok, ladies!

I''m firmly planted on the couch. 52 pure inches of Obama about to come through the screen!

The Chinese food has been ordered; I''ve poured a large glass of wine. And I''m wearing my tiara. Because (a) I''m home alone; and (b) I''m getting married in 2 weeks!

Yay, Krissie! ROCK that tiara, girl!

I''m gonna pop some popcorn and drink my Smirnoff Ice . . . DH brought me a six-pack of the rasperry ones!

 

[Krissie]

Christiane Amanpour on CNN ... love her.

LOL!!!!! I''ve been considering it.

 

[luckystar112]

Can these last few minutes go by any slower?!
I just poured my second glass of sangria. Yeah, I switched at the last minute.

DH is on his way home, we''re gonna plant ourselves on the couch, laptop nearby of course.

I know! It''s taking forever!!! DH just went to Lowe''s to get some stuff to make a platform for our pellet stove to sit on, so he''s gonna work on that while I watch the debates. He''s just not all that interested, which is probably a good thing, because I don''t think we really agree much when it comes to politics. (We really avoid the subject! LOL!)

ACK! That's going to scare all the little trick-or-treaters away!!!

ETA: Our local Wal-Mart has masks of McCain, Obama and Hillary, but I haven't seen any Palin masks . . . yet!

 

[Irishgrrrl]

OK, gather round, kiddies!!!

 

[miraclesrule]

Ooooh, a coin toss. Just like football.

Uh-oh! Look how much McCain is blinking!!!

 

[Erin]

I liked Obama''s four point answer to addressing the key points of the bailout decision.

Yes, very nice! As usual, he sounded much better prepared than McCain!

 

[miraclesrule]

Spending is out of control ...

How do you run against your own party?

And if the fundamentals of the economy are strong 7 days ago, how are we now on the precipice of the greatest financial crisis since the Great Depression?

 

[Irishgrrrl]

Hi, Viszla!

Zing.....I''m sort of thinking that McCain is winning Round 1. He nailed Obama on the earmark comment. Ouch.
