Obama Roasts McCain

Levity is my salvation.

As Obama alludes to during his uproarious roast of McCain last evening, it is a testament to our democratic process that the two candidates for President, 19 days from the big prize, surrounded by the nasty imbroglio of party politics and the nasty cadre of partisan hacks that drive their campaigns, can dress up, eat a meal on the same dais, take the podium and rib each other without gunplay or surrogate white noise.
