Robert Gibbs takes on Sean Hannity
Damn. On so many levels, this makes me feel like I’ve missed out on so little having missed this campaign season. In the event that Obama wins, I will always look back on this year as a large headache avoided.
Hoping none of you every have to regularly interact with McCain supporters, much less Hannity fans,

P.S. So 86% of viewers think McCain won the debate? Definitively untrue based on what I’ve read (and pretty simple logic – that margin is more or less unreachable in two-party systems…), but also unimportant, since the large majority of voters wouldn’t change their minds if one of the candidates died. The only group that is of import is high-school educated-or-less women who remain uncertain. And my dad explained to me that the polling on that group shows that Obama’s willingness to cede points to McCain and attempt to make eye contact was more important to them than words; he looked like the younger, smarter brother who just wanted the fight to end so he could get to work. It’s that kind of mentality that should be pushed on every soccer mom you know in the coming days!
