WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THE PRESIDENT? Why is he so off-message, distracted, and generally awful? He totally screwed that up! He’ll never win, now. This is terrible news. Terrible, terrible news. (Via Dave Weigel.)

New Obama Ad Accuses Romney of Putting Profits Over National Security
Wow. This ad totally goes there on three different fronts: The Romney-sucks-at-foreign-policy front, the Romney-is-a-callous-businessman front, and the Romney-is-an-asshole front.

Mitt Romney’s Moronic Foreign Policy Speech Was Built to Be Chopped Into Pieces
Mitt Romney gave a foreign policy speech this morning. It was full of exactly no surprises, although there were a few soundbites that will resonate on TV news outlets all day. Romney tried to mark a difference between himself and President Obama, and he did that mostly by criticizing President Obama’s policies. But after criticizing […]

The Fall and Rise of Barack Obama
You should read this Politico story about President Obama’s response to this week’s debate. He knew that he did a bad job as soon as the debate was over, but it wasn’t until the next day that he realized how bad it was: At first, Obama didn’t think his performance was a complete disaster. But […]

John McCain Basically Says Obama Rigged the Jobs Numbers
This is an incredibly irresponsible thing for a senior US senator to say: John McCain says he’s “not enough of an economist” to say anything about the jobs numbers, but that he wouldn’t put “anything past” the Obama administration. He’s basically accusing the president of faking the jobs numbers for a bump in the polls. […]

Romney and Obama Agree: “Shut the Fuck Up, Jim Lehrer.”
While this Jimmy Fallon spoof of Tuesday’s debate (and Jim Lehrer’s incompetence) may start out as a familiar repeat of an Austin Powers clip, when “Obama” chimes in? It… gets… HILARIOUS. Check it out.

NOM Urges You to “Vote Catholic”
NOM’s BDOT—”biggest douche on Twitter”—wants you to “vote Catholic.” NOM’s BDOT apparently isn’t looking at the polls: President Obama’s support among Catholic voters has surged since June, according to a new poll, despite a summer that included the Catholic bishops’ religious freedom campaign and the naming of Rep. Paul Ryan, a Catholic, as the GOP’s […]

Mitt Can’t Kill Big Bird
One of the high blood-pressure takeaways from Tuesday night’s presidential debate—other than Obama’s belly flop—was Mitt Romney’s assertion that he would stop subsidies to PBS, even though he “loves” Big Bird. This of course enflamed the liberal masses, inspiring a vitriolic outburst to TMZ from Geordi LaForge (okay, fine… LaVar “Reading Rainbow” Burton”)… LeVar tells […]

Mitt Romney on His 47% Video: “I said something just completely wrong”
As Denis mentioned in GMN, Mitt Romney, who previously embraced his secretly recorded statements on 47% of America being moochers, now says that he got it wrong. The reason he got it wrong? He makes an awful lot of speeches, and apparently, you just wind up saying something that runs completely against what you believe […]

What Was NOT Said During Last Night’s Debate?
Thanks to everyone who turned out to watch the presidential debate last night at the Back Stage—and sorry to everyone who was turned away when the space reached capacity. The people who couldn’t watch the debate were really the lucky ones in the end, though. The debate, moderated by a 100-year-old mop, was rather insufferable. […]
