Channeling Rage
I’m beginning to think that the hooligan-like crowds that Palin has been stirring up are a displacement of McCain’s own rage that he must be having a supremely difficult time controlling.

In the second debate it came across as forced calm punctuated by “That one!” At the moment, it is coming out in pitiful pathetic embarrassing attempts to smear Obama with the Bill Ayers domestic terrorist friend story. I’m hoping that he finally goes all the way in the next debate and just explodes, as this Brave New Films piece documents that he is capable of doing:
