Piece of Furniture wins debate: Maybe re-Bob quit too soon

Okay here's the link:

And here's the quote:

Durham, N.C.: This feels like the first debate where the moderator has been able to move the candidates to engage beyond talking points. Do you agree? Do you think it was Schieffer's moderation, the format, McCain throwing caution to the wind in face of bad polls, or some other factor?

Robert G. Kaiser: Shieffer deserves some of the credit, the table does too. And maybe we should credit the candidates as well. It was the best of the three debates, I thought.


(Emphasis mine)

Oh yes! Let's not forget the importance of good interior decoration and the role it plays in world politics. Where would we be without the President's cabinet. And when Truman says "the buck stops here" he meant here on his desk in the oval office, which I hear has excellent Feng Shui.

But what I really want to know is: Did McCain discredit Obama's mulitpositional sofa Cham(ois)? Does McCain willingness to go throw pillows help or hurt his campaign? And really, isn't the most pressing issue in the world today, not the economy, not climate change but nuclear dis-armoire-ment.

Please.
