    Greatest strength: humility. LOL brilliant. Once net someone who said, in all earnestness “I’m probably the must humble person I know.”

    I needed a cigarette after watching that last night…it was glorious. And added to the list of things I need to get on a t-shirt: “Barack: Swahili for ‘That One’”

    God, we need this man in the WH RIGHT NOW! I loved his greatest weakness (“I might be a little too awesome”). I also loved watching McCain squirm everytime Obama turned to address him directly. You could just see the hostility simmering under the surface.

    My money is on Colbert, Stewart, and the boyz of funny at Busboy. The cadence of those lines were very Colbert feeling. On the McCain side it sounded like Don Rickles with maybe some Ben Stein thrown in. Good stuff from both sides – but Obama’s got the coalition of the funny on standby and ready to release their October surprise – Shock and Gaffaw.

    OK I might get crucified for this, but I watched both candidates roasts and I actually thought McCrackup’s was pretty funny as well. It’s too bad the campaigning couldn’t be more like this: I’d much rather laugh than be disgusted on any given day…My favorite line was easily the “you can see the Russian Tea Room from here” quip. Comic brilliance!
