I'm going to call it Leo's Mirror.

No, honestly, I'm all for being in someone else's shoes. I try to do it when my temper doesn't get in the way.

But at the same time, I must admit that I get confused when you use it some of the time. When someone brings up an instance where person A messed up and you point out that person B messed up too it doesn't diminish what person A did in the first place.
I don't know if I explained that well. And rereading it, I'm still not sure.

Pretty low counts, really. no one would have passed out during their drinking game at least.

Yes. I guess they caught on.


Another thing I forgot to mention was that neither nailed their closing speech. It left me feeling kinda empty concerning both of them.

I hope no one was playing the 'Drink a shot every time McCain blinks' game.


I was totally distracted by all that blinking, and then I read at the Huffington post that the count was over 3000 in a 90 minute period. Annoying as all hell.

While it may be annoying, anyone who feels the need to count them has issues.

I just want to see what exactly McCain was busily scribbling on his notepad while giving Obama the one eyebrow raise.

I think he was drawing a picture of a pony.

Would it disturb you if I said that I love you for that remark.
