Shinkansen Obama to choo choo Palin

I know this is a cheap one, but I simply must reiterate what is being said with this excellent picture (via Pharyngula).

As for the presidential debate yesterday, I only heard the last half on radio (don't have TV - and yes, I know I can get a few channels cheap... It's a choice!).

McCain said more than a couple of times that Obama plans to raise taxes, and I didn't hear Obama deny that. I think this is the biggest hurdle for the Obama campaign: explaining why it is important to raise taxes, and how it will benefit everyone. Because it will. However, Americans of course just want more for themselves right here and now, missing the bigger picture as usual.
