Meanwhile, Fox News is reporting that Obama is expected to address the lipstick "controversy" soon. I don't know if this is true, but if so, here's hoping that there's not a shred of defensiveness or apology in his remarks.

1. I hope he apologizes to the pigs

Pigs aren't as smelly nor as stupid as John McCain's policies.

[Curtland1015]

2. Oh lord! I was hoping he would just let it simmer!

If he comes out looking soft on this I'll freak!

[jefferson_dem]

5. Agreed.

He needs to deliver a major league brush back pitch to the McCain sleazoids.

[democracy1st]

17. he better deliver something hardcore against the McCain campaign this is getting ridiculous

[Virginia Dare]

8. I hope he rips her a new one.....n/t

[OwnedByFerrets]

3. I agree....we have GOT to stop apologizing for chit we arent guilty of.

[ogneopasno]

4. Why? There is no controversy! JAYZUS!

Unless he comes out and shows the video when McCain said it in reference to an actual person. That would be OK.

[cali]

6. oh shit. that's the last thing he should do. It puts him on the defensive

if he addresses it in anyway. bad, bad move.

[Virginia Dare]

[City Lights]

10. Oh gawd no.

Why address manufactured poutrage from McPalin? x(

[EnviroBat]

11. Bad move.

No apologies please. That would really piss me off. I would be sending some less than glowing letter to the Obama camp.

[bunkerbuster1]

12. "I did not mean to say 'pig', and for that I apologize.

What I meant to say was 'c*nt hog with her period.' My remarks lacked specificity. I hope this clears up the matter."

[Connie_Corleone]

13. Why are people believing Fox News?

Obama is getting ready to do a rally right now.

[CatsDogsBabies]

14. This could be good

as long as he uses the opportunity to refocus the conversation on real stuff and to point out how silly it is for people to be more concerned about the precise meaning of the expression "a pig in lipstick."

[BurtWorm]

15. Obama to Rove and the Republicans:

:nopity:

[timber84]

16. Per sludge( have mercy on my soul for posting that)

Obama gonna explain on Letterman tonight" Take it I guess for whatever it's worth.
