1. Sometimes I think he's too good for us.
He will be this century's FDR, I'm quite sure.

6. He's got it all.
He's smart, he's charismatic, he's got good political instincts, and he's got the most incredible personality. I couldn't have thunk up someone this perfect.

9. Especially when he was blustering on about the rallies
as though the Obama rallies have been worse than the McCain Palin rallies which have been obscene- and here he is demanding an apology from Obama. What a complete and total asshole. :nuke:

7. lemme tell you something...
i am a praying person

some people pray for rain to dampen the spirits of tens of thousands of people.
some people pray that their god can beat up the 'other' gods.
some people threaten god with ultimatums about his reputation (<-read that one again - it gets better each time!)
some people pray for very specific results in accordance with whatever THEY believe god wants.

before each debate (and really at other times during this election), i have said a very simple prayer to ask God to try and guide both these men's hearts and deeds, to lead them to be just and truthful, and that i would trust that whatever the outcome, it would serve for our greater good and would fulfill His will.


i believe ALL our prayers have been answered, in one way or another. and yes, i thank God.

10. God created this amazing man
and is guiding him and us to where we need him.

Love moves in mysterious ways.

Who'd have thought this is how the pieces fit
You and I shouldn't even try making sense of it
I forgot how we ever came this far
I believe we had reasons but I don't know what they are
Don't blame it on my heart, oh

Love moves in mysterious ways
It's always so surprising
When love appears over the horizon
I'll love you for the rest of my days
But still it's a mystery
How you ever came to me
Which only proves
Love moves in mysterious ways

Heaven knows love is just a chance we take
We make plans but then love demands a leap of faith
So hold me close and never never let me go
'Cos even though we think we know which way the river flows
That's not the way love goes, no
