In a few hours more, Paul Ryan will try and teach Joe Biden, how to count the letters in the word "Jobs".

That is so funny, hearing Biden in a speech, count it out:
"it's all about the three letter word 'Jobs'"
"J-O-B-S, Jobs". <laughter among the crowd>

Just to be fair, we must include the famous Dan Quayle remark:
"If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure."

Why dear God, must we endure these nincompoops as our leaders??

You can't expect to get a lot of details about Romney's plans just yet, because first the democrats must:

1) call every one of the proposed tax cuts, stupid, in 20 locations, in time for the 6 o'clock news cycle.

Let's see: Maxine Waters, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid - sure!

2) find 50 people whose life has imploded, because of a planned reduction in their income tax.

3) trot out 3 crying widows and or orphans, who have lost their husbands or fathers, because of Romney's reduction in their income tax.

4) interview 10 business managers who are now moving their plants to China, because they will pay lower business taxes, under the Romney tax plans.

It's so pathetic you'd cry, but it's so funny at the same time, that you can't.

If Joe Biden ever became President, wouldn't that just take the humor out of it, in a heartbeat?

The only thing that gives me hope is Romney said Ryan's plan was not his plan, and he's running for President, not Ryan.

I don't watch much network TV so haven't seen a lot of the campaign ads, but having spent a week on Cape Cod I was amazed at the number of ads. That area would of course have a ton of ads for the Warren/Brown race, and some for New Hampshire and Rhode Island races.

What shocked me is the deluge of Super-PAC ads (almost all negative) on all the federal, and even some of the state races. No shit, they'd break for a commercial and you'd see four or five political ads for every potato chip or Pepsi ad.

I can see the broadcast industry shills and lobbyists trying to shorten the election cycle from 4 to 2 years with that kind of revenue stream.
