Friday Morning Open Thread

Good morning.

I have the sense that people are scratching their heads today asking: What the hell was Palin talking about? If you get a second, watch some of the videos that have been popping up. This one, for example. She makes no sense. Now, most of the pundits had allowed the McCain campaign to set such low expectations that by walking on the stage and winking a few times, Palin won in their eyes. And, I know that debates aren't ever about substance. But seriously, what the hell was she talking about last night. I defy anyone to find a truly coherent, well reasoned answer to any question.

So, that's over. The House votes today on the bailout bill. The arm-twisting is probably pretty intense up there. Word is the vote won't even happen til the leaders know it will pass.

Never a dull moment...thread the news...
