Yes, all this "lipstick on a pig" stuff is all complete nonsense. Schoolyard childishness. Nam bee-pambee useless verbiage. Sen. Obama and Sen. McCain have both used the "expression." Nobody cared when McCain said it, now it seems just about everyone has heard about Obama using it. I would say to Sen. Obama that using it now, with the Gov. Palin "lipstick on a pit bull" remark still very much a hot button, was just not a good idea, no matter what he meant. Obama looked tired and seems like he's getting frustated. And the Republicans are lov'n it. It's all part of the strategy. And Obama is fall'n right in the hole. If this campaign was a football game, it was the Democrats who have controlled the ball, but when the Republicans came out of their halftime - their national convention - they came out like a Japanese bullet train. And the Democrats have lost very valuable ground. They are being outgunned and outmaneuvered. With the election about 50 days away, it is not time to be using your second string players. We have seen Republicans get first down after first down. Selecting Palin was a touchdown. Sen. Obama and his "team" need to get it "back" together and fast. They need to get back the field position they've lost. They fumbled by not selecting Hillary as their VP nominee. If the Democrats don't want to lose the game, they got to find the "mojo" they had when Obama was a rock star. If the Dems lose the election after 8 years of Bush, then one has to wonder if they deserved the office in the first place.
