The End

Debate's over, nothing really happened, no new things, both sounded as expected. We knew we'd be bored. And it seems as if McCain lived up to his low expectations. Wouldn't it be nice to have a presidential candidate for whom we didn't have to lower the bar so far? Remember "the soft bigotry of low expectations?" Or even (we enter fantasy land here) a democracy, w/ an educated & intelligent electorate? While we're at it, where are those flying cars we were promised by now?

And moonbases, and those weird collars that stick out, and AI that is so smart it is declared "free" in a dramatic courtroom scene . . .
Ah, I don't need that stuff anyway; what I really want is a Space Elevator!

We like those puffy epaulets that go w/ the Ming The Merciless stand-up collars too.

Though a space elevator is what we really need.
