2. From Brokaw - it's an attempt at a lifeline
It's time for the Reich-wing OLD guard to die-off and get some new thinking in there

4. I used to like Tom but now
I cringe at his addiction to the "Greatest Generation" and somehow including McInsane in his affections of same.

Now he is flacking "Boomer" and trying to include McInsane in the common sense approach to the times.

"Boomer" Tom -- get OFF the stage -- the next generation is going to RULE = kiss your supposed hero good-bye.

I will NEVER buy another of your books.

6. right. Browkaw is trying to make the case for stifling change
. . . in favor of the tired, old-fashioned recipes McCain represents. It's really a disgusting display for someone who waxes so eloquently about the American experience. It caught me off-guard to find him so determined to represent McCain as something from the past that our future should emulate.

5. Without His Barracuda???
I had heard that both were supposed to appear, Grandpa was to play minder, but methinks the two aren't quite the loving couple anymore...he sees Palin trying to upstage him and appears to be going solo from here on out.

9. Who cares? What are the ratings of MTP? Only pol fanatics watch it
and anyone whose vote can be swayed right now is not a political fanatic.
