I'm in Manchester, New Hampshire (where, as a Free State Projecter could tell you, it is now hailing) to chase a few stories and cover both parties' debates: Democrats on Sunday, Republicans on Tuesday. Expect liveblogging and open threads on both days.

  1. D.A. Ridgely   19 years ago

    Weigel is obviously in the pocket of Big Debate.

  2. Big Crimethink   19 years ago

    I offered him $4.99 a month to shill for me but he turned me down. If he is indeed a whore, he's not a cheap whore...

  3. Cesar   19 years ago

    Maybe this time Richardson will have his hearing aid in.

  4. AmericanResistance   19 years ago

    Does anyone think the Republicrats will address the open borders/amnesty boondoogle?

  5. Trey   19 years ago

    I once worked for the state. They had this really great projecter, so I stole it. I love my free state projecter, it is shiny!

    Plus, it will tell you when it's hailing. (dink... dink-dink)

  6. crimethink   19 years ago

    I'm a great projector too, you filthy thieving reprobate.

  7. Manuel Labor   19 years ago

    There is an election coming up ?
    I thought that was next year.
    Can I vote without my z-visa?

  8. Jonathan C. Hohensee   19 years ago

    Now that he's a mini-celeberty, Ron Paul beats the blowback theory like it it a helpless dead horse
    1:3

  9. Jonathan Hohensee   19 years ago

    Democrats have a who's dick is bigger contest over medicare
    1:5

  10. Jonathan Hohensee   19 years ago

    During the who's dick is bigger debate contest, Hillary whips it out
    1:20

  11. Jonathan Hohensee   19 years ago

    Hillary turns out to be bigger than all of the other candidates
    1:2

  12. Jonathan Hohensee   19 years ago

    Mid-debate McCain says "fuck it" and leaves
    1:11

  13. Cesar   19 years ago

    During the debate, LoneWacko and American Non-Resistance comes to hit and run to bitch about "amnesty" and "TehBrownInvasion" 1:5.

  14. Jonathan Hohensee   19 years ago

    An engraged, steriod-pumped Biden rushes the mound after Lehrer asks about gay marriage in a condensending tone.
    1:50

  15. Jonathan Hohensee   19 years ago

    Biden begins to plagerize from yet another Labour Party stub speech, but stops himself mid-sentance. Muttering to himself, "no, not again." Then promptly drops out of the election
    1:23

    Gulliani uses the word "prostate" in a sentance, then gives a flabbergasted Mitt a high-five
    1:10

  16. Jonathan Hohensee   19 years ago

    Edwards gives that smug, shit-eating smile.
    1:1.5

  17. Jonathan Hohensee   19 years ago

    As Wolfe Blitzer rambles on about the procedures of the debate, Brownback's mind wanders, eventually fixating on the indescribable angish he feels every day as a closet drinker, lamenting how he is too afraid to take the coward's way out. Wolfe throws the first question out to Romny and suddenly Sam throws his mind back into the horrible, shallow world that is devouring the very core of his being.
    1:25

  18. Jonathan Hohensee   19 years ago

    First Chuck Norris pop-culture refrence
    1:5

    Second Chuck Norris pop-culture refrence
    1:7

    Third Chuck Norris pop-culture refrence
    1:8

    Fourth Chuck Norris pop-culture refrence
    1:30

    Even though the joke was long-dead, Kucinich makes a poor attempt at the fifth Chuck Norris joke of the evining, mis-prounouncing "Norris" and mis-understanding the point of the joke is met with a silence that could stun a horse. The camera cuts to Leher who has his hands in his face and shaking to his head.
    1:42

    This is going to be one hell of a debate

  19. Bluebettle   19 years ago

    what are the odds of Jerry Farwell eulogizing?

  20. Jerry Farwell   19 years ago

    Slim. I died.

  21. Cesar   19 years ago

    1:1.1 Al Gore and Fred Thompson win the Democrat and Republican debates, respectively, by not showing up.

  22. Timon19   19 years ago

    Boobie!!!!!!!

  23. jf   19 years ago

    I have to agree with Timon19 on this one. Who cares about the debates, the Cleveland Cavaliers are in the freaking NBA Finals!

  24. Timon19   19 years ago

    Hell yeah we are!

    I love me some Boobie!

  25. gao xia en   19 years ago

    Can't wait for youtube. In Taiwan, we can't see any of that live. What time is the Republican debate? I like Ron Paul. Already voted for him once.If he's elected, I'd think about moving back to the USSA. But I'm not planning on it.

  26. crimethink   19 years ago

    gao,

    I think both debates are being streamed live on CNN's website.

  27. Jonathan Hohensee   19 years ago

    A lot has changed since you last lived here, Gao. For one thing, we are no longer called the USSA.

  28. Jonathan Hohensee   19 years ago

    In case you are wondering, we dropped the "Super", not the "States."

  29. ed   19 years ago

    I have no expectations, therefore I will not watch.
    Let me know if I miss anything substantial.
    I'll be right here, holding my breath...

  30. Eddy   19 years ago
