Twitter- mattthomas: Chris Matthews is replaying McCain's debate gaffes and then not so much analyzing them, but laughing at them. Seriously.
- mattthomas: @jayrosen_nyu is on a roll with his observations about tonight's debate
- mattthomas: Lost in all the political talk tonight is the fact that "Barbara Ann," particularly the Beach Boys version, is a really great song.
- mattthomas: @LanceStrate Thanks for the links! Reminds me a little of Negativland's repurposing of Casey Kasem's remarks about U2: http://bit.ly/nlu2.
- mattthomas: @LanceStrate No. Something about bombing them I'm guessing? I don't like the idea of someone with the ability to bomb joking about it.
- mattthomas: I like that McCain makes jokes about bombing other countries to his veteran friends, and only to his veteran friends. That's character.
- mattthomas: @LanceStrate I think it's more about performance than age. McCain doesn't embody any of positive things associated with age, e.g., wisdom.
- mattthomas: Even if you plan to vote for him already, the New Yorker's endorsement of Obama is worth reading: http://bit.ly/nyobama.
- mattthomas: @phdaisy Reggie Bush makes it look easy, doesn't he?
- mattthomas: @EveBottando Around 8:15 PM, a plane crashed into a house, apparently. If you've seen Scorsese's The Aviator, it looks sort of like that.
