1. Lesson #1: Do not piss off David Letterman.
Lesson #2: See lesson #1.

Lesson proffered--lesson learned.

The Barracuda doesn't have anything on the jilted Dave.

2. Hilarious - and on point! Brilliant, Dave!
Thanks for posting this latest. I love the jabs and digs, the zingers, done with comedic finesse!
:applause:

3. Talk about death of a thousand cuts.
That it has gone on this long really leaves it un-fixable. What the hell is McCain going to say to Dave? Or even Palin for that matter?

I predict there is no way anyone from the McCain campaign does Letterman. The damage is done, and the only real way to stop it is to go in front of all of those viewers and admit he lied and grovel for an apology? That is best case. Worst case is be contentious and have Dave develop a Lenny Bruce type obsession with taking you down. Arguably he already has.

Dave has negated millions of dollars in McCain advertising making him look like a fool, over and over, and McCain just let's it slide. Weak, to say the least. Great viewing as well. :)

7. I hope he goes on the show
Letterman would probably ask him harder questions than he faced at any of the debates.

This is great....
I used to watch him years ago...but don't do much TV now...
Even Keith mentioned the 'big head' thing...I guess I'm not getting that...but the rest is pure joy!

peace~

It's a lose-lose deal for McCain. If he goes on, he'll lie and Dave will skewer him in person. If he doesn't go on, Dave will continue to skewer him in absentia as he does here.

Works for me.

13. comedic genius
Edited on Sun Oct-12-08 04:38 PM by elbram
I think it would be pure comedic genius if Letterman stood up McCain...by instead having a Barack Obama interview in Katie Couric's studio...

then they could show the feed to Letterman's studio with McCain and Palin getting their make-up put on...
