First try at this…here we go:

6:02: Tom Brokaw, God love him, sounds shaky. Lost his fastball a bit.

6:04: Barack Obama, God love him, sounds boring. Professorial.

6:07: John McCain, God love him, looks old. Looks a little angry too. Wants to solve the economic problems by you getting off his lawn. Gets a few good digs at Obama for wanting to raise taxes.

6:14:John McCain’s responses on CNN’s undecided voters are flat-lining like a 72 year-old man in a–actually we won’t go there.

6:15:Bam isn’t exactly blowing the doors off the undecideds/independents either. He’s flatter than four month old Sprite.

6:23: For those of you playing the “my friends” drinking game at home, McCain just hit 3.

6:24: Make that 4…you might be getting very drunk.

6:28: A question from the Internet! McCain’s response: “I’m going to ask the American people…what is the Internet? No, seriously, what is it.”

6:30:Wow, Bam brings up 9/11 before McCain gets too. Please cut to McCain so we can see the steam coming out of his ears.

6:32: Non-debate-related, but is it time to drop Marvin Harrison off the old fantasy squad? He’s kind of like Tom Brokaw in that he’s lost a step this year.

6:44: Wow four “my friends” in 4 minutes. Hope you’re not doing shots. Obama’s last few answers are off the charts with the undecideds. Which begs the question…are they really undecided?

6:46: Not that those hick undecideds on CNN should be THE judge of who’s winning, but Obama appears to be winning this in a big way.

6:48: Hey Tom…wait another my friends…hey Tom…if it’s running over, speak up! Man he’s lost his fastball.

6:55:Nice dig by McCain on Biden with the “hair transplant” comment. Only one “my friends” in last 7 minutes.

6:58:People apparently want universal health care, judging by the hick independent’s reaction.

6:59: One answer with no “my friends!”

7:03:Damn Bam likes to talk. How can an Obama-Biden cabinent member ever get a word in edge-wise?

7:06: Whew. Another “my friends.” Getting worried there. Been awhile. Weird that the independents aren’t responding to McCain’s “winning the Iraq war” comments.

7:12: McCain really wants you off his lawn.

7:14:Since when did Pack-is-tan become Pah-kiss-taaan?

7:15: My friends.

7:17: Tom, please say, “Can I get a what what?”

7:21: Poles.

7:23: He said this was a yes or no question, Barack! Blah blah blah blah blah.

7:25: All this talk about Russia has got us thinking about Anna Semenovich. Beats the hell out of thinking about Vlad Putin.

7:29: Finally, the last question. Gotta hit the can. And that last question is ridiculously stupid. “What don’t you know and how will you learn it?” Obama: “I don’t know how to answer a question in under 97 sentences.” McCain: “I don’t know what this damn Internet thing you keep mentioning is.”

7:36: And they didn’t even shake hands. We could tell McCain has a high level of disdain towards Obama, but good to see the feeling is mutual.

Well that was sort of fun. Looks like this will be a big win for Obama. We’re sure the liberal media pundits will be gushing over him for the next two hours. Maybe we’ll do this again. Oh yeah, we think McCain said “my friends” 11 times in that debate. We might’ve missed a few in between updates and falling asleep though.
