Seriously, why the Hell didn't the McCain campaign use Arnold like this throughout? The jokes and charisma aside, even what he's saying holds more water and is presented better than anything the campaign has done in the last month.
Instead of utilizing a star, they tried to make a star out of a plumber...

Because he's not from the real America, he's from the fake America with simulated real life situations.

I think this proves it. Arnold 2012.

Hopefully he can beat out Palin for the 2012 slot. It's scary to think that witch is planning on running in 2012.

Arnold's got charisma. What does she have?

Arnold's got charisma. What does she have?

Birth right citizenship and no constitutional barriers.

In light of the ignorance and bigotry displayed by parts of the McCain camp (and parts of the Obama camp, too) this interview is a bit of a refresher:

Regardless of her political opinion, it's very pleasant to see an American Christian that actually exhibits Christian values like being nice, tolerant and understanding. With all the crazies in the media these days it's sometimes hard to believe they exist.

Palin was pranked by a member of a French Canadian comedy duo. Impersonating President Sarkozy.
Canada: 1
Palin: 0

Her press secretary implied that Palin was playing along. I'm not buying it. Especially since at the end, when the veil is lifted on the prank, she kind of flips out and has her press secretary hang up.

That was pretty funny, "hang up hang up HANG UP".

Well I do, but I'm not voting for him because I'm sexist and don't like women in power. Sorry Lithrael and Grail.

Edit: Leaving to go vote.

Edit: Edit: Finished voting a while ago, just got back.

Me too, waited in line for 30 minutes. My professor called us dumb for not waiting in 5 hour lines for early voting. Who's laughing now? :x

 

[Griffith]

I had no wait at all, really, it's just disgraceful that they can't organize this better.

Just got this automated phone call:

"Breaking news alert. Early results show a landslide win for Obama in Florida, Ohio, and Virginia, as well as guaranteed control of the Congress for Democrats. Repeat, victory for Obama and Democrats certain, regardless of votes in Western states such as Colorado and California. This has been a breaking news alert."



Nice try, Republicans. Seriously, the language for the part about DON'T BOTHER voting in Colorado might have even been stronger.

I voted for General Shizikawa of the Japanese Nationalist party. He will lead our great nation into the next era of prosperity.

 

[Walter]

I fed numbers to the AP again this year and McCain swept my county by about 35% of the vote. Too bad he's losing nationwide. Still, im worried about the disparity in the popular vote...

 

[Griffith]

It is accomplished.
