GREAT CATCH!

From Hot Air
Quote
If the ‘Cuda had helped McCain come back to win the election, this would have been the metaphor of the year.

Actually, it’s still the metaphor of the year. Obama’s the guy who catches the ball, and the guy diving out of the back of the end zone is the financial crisis.
"When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion - when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you - when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - you may know that your society is doomed."

- Ayn Rand

Loved this comment.  :-)

For the metaphor to be perfect, the media would be the ref, and he’d be signalling touchdown before the snap.
