Preface: Mike Murphy - Friend of Jon Mccain and former adviser to the campaign.
Peggy Noonan - Primary Reagan speechwriter.

Transcript:

Chuck Todd: Mike Murphy, lots of free advice, we'll see if Steve Schmidt and the boys were watching. We'll find out on your blackberry. Tonight voters will get their chance to hear from Sarah Palin and she will get the chance to show voters she's the right woman for the job Up next, one man who's already convinced and he'll us why Gov. Jon Huntsman. (cut away)

Peggy Noonan: Yeah.

Mike Murphy: You know, because I come out of the blue swing state governor world: Engler, Whitman, Tommy Thompson, Mitt Romney, Jeb Bush. I mean, these guys -- this is how you win a Texas race, just run it up. And it's not gonna work. And --

PN: It's over.

MM: Still McCain can give a version of the Lieberman speech to do himself some good.

CT: I also think the Palin pick is insulting to Kay Bailey Hutchinson, too.

PN: Saw Kay this morning.

CT: Yeah, she's never looked comfortable about this --

MM: They're all bummed out.

CT: Yeah, I mean is she really the most qualified woman they could have turned to?

PN: The most qualified? No! I think they went for this -- excuse me-- political bullshit about narratives --

CT: Yeah they went to a narrative.

MM: I totally agree.

PN: Every time the Republicans do that, because that's not where they live and it's not what they're good at, they blow it.

MM: You know what' sreally the worst thing about it? The greatness of McCain is no cynicism, and this is cynical.

CT: This is cynical, and as you called it, gimmicky.

MM: Yeah.

Kim Jong Ill played 18 holes of golf with only 17 shots.

I really didn't see this round of running mate picking to be that surprising on either side (in full disclosure - Fuck McCain). Obama chose Biden who addresses Obama's criticisms of being to inexperienced in foreign affairs. McCain chose Palin cause she's a woman (Hillary) and she revved the party base (strongly pro-life, gun rights, blah blah blah). I can only assume that she was chosen to try to revive McCain's campaign.

If the Obama camp treads carefully though, they may be able to spin this to their side. When, given the chance to pick an advisor with which you will approach the nation, with whom do you choose? A lady with 2 yrs. experience or an 11 year member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. I really don't see how the McCain camp can spin the Palin pick as being more than Fall pandering. In contrast to Obama's choice as an advisor in his presidency. At least Obama's choice does tell us a little bit about his choice of advice.

Wait, you live near this place and you don't think that is cool. Good marketing gimmick anyway. *viral

I just watched this movie the other night. Its as good as this trailer makes it look, unfortunately.

I was a little lost on the lead up to death. Malnourishment, weakened immune system, AND THEN YOU DIE!!! Seems to me there should be a step or to in there that they are skipping.

The German "give me some skin" at the end was awesome.

It was dead. Replaced embed code with an ABC special version. There are so many specials on this lecture, and I honestly can't remember which one I originally posted.

Like the song. Love the Movie. Did I mention that the book is awesomely phenomenal? Also, Ken Kesey is just the shit in general. IMHO this is the best book to movie adaptation ever. If someone else has a better alternative, I am open to examine.
