right about “real condoms.” once i thought i was so smart, having those nyc condoms around until me (and the guy) realized that it was way too small–and he wasnt like huge or anything, but they’re supposidly a tight and uncomfortable fit.

some other things that come in handy:
flip flops
flashlight
ipod/ipod charger/dock
lots of water bottles or soda cans
hooded sweatshirts
sneakers (a few pairs)
pics of family/friends
vanity mirror (if youre a girl)
bottle of whisky
sunglasses
dvds
looseleaf paper/index cards
cookies!
camera
journal

There’s really no such thing as a McCain Democrat, not anymore. I once would have defined myself as a Democrat who’d like McCain in the White House, but he’s scrambled so far right these past few years that I can’t find a single one of his policies I’d rather see than Obama’s. His disheartening shift of gears from “level-headed centrist” to “pandering GOP puppet” makes me cringe, actually.

If some who once identified as Democrats now support McCain for reasons they think are valid, that’s fine. But, surprise! You’re a Republican.

I like Joe Biden, but that doesn’t make up for the lack of substance at the top of the Democratic ticket.

Like many staunch Democrats, I believe a voter must first look at the top of the ticket. And such a look reveals John McCain as the only legitimate candidate in this election.

Biden drives home to bamma-ass Delaware every night because he hates D.C. and Obama tries to say that’s a good thing.

Fuck ‘em.

“hope and change” lol

It’s Obama supporters like you who live in a fantasy world. The personality cult that surrounds this man is almost frightening. You may be upset he chose Biden, but in the end Biden was probably the best he could do from a practical perspective. Hillary was NEVER going to be chosen; she would wreck Obama’s campaign message (or lack thereof) far more than any other running mate. Bayh is an empty sack of potatoes, Kaine is a one-term governor who has not accomplished much (given this is probably due to a deadlocked Republican state house in Richmond), and what’s so great about Clark? His “fantastic record” as NATO commander? In the end, you’ll see that Biden was probably the best veep candidate the Democratic Party has to offer. Since Obama claims to be running as an outsider, he needs an insider to complement him. Every “outsider” candidate has done this, whether it be Eisenhower with Nixon, Kennedy with Johnson, Carter with Mondale, or even Reagan with Bush.

This may be hard for Obama supporters to swallow, but Obama’s not a “post-partisan candidate.” If anything, he’s more partisan than the last two Democratic presidential candidates have been. The Washington insider politics of compromise and horse-trading, what you might recognize as “flip-flopping” and pork-barrel spending, will never go away thanks to the election of one man. If anything, an Obama presidency (combined with a heavily Democratic Congress) would see wasteful government spending reach new, dizzying heights. Pelosi and Reid are just as susceptible to earmarks as the prior Republican Congress was. If Obama really thinks he can change the system singlehandedly, then he is in for a VERY rude awakening. Prepare for Jimmy Carter, Round II.

but now the following criticisms don’t apply to mccain (and they were effective):

1. age and health
2. mccain’s poor academic record
3. lobbyist connections
4. being an insider

how the heck is biden hope/change

and kaine/bayh weren’t the only options–you had hillary/clark and a bunch of others

Because we’re living in the real world where some people still need to be convinced that the Dem ticket has some weight, and not in a fantasy world where the “new” politics of no-names Tim Kaine and Evan Bayh might have made a lick of difference?

But then, this has nothing to do with NSOP
