The picture here.
Boy are there some filthy minds out there...you can only imagine. And scatological: "Obama's Natural Gas Proposal Leaves McCain Wretching" is just about the only one that the 600 Watergate censors will allow.
There are also a lot of Lord of the Rings fans. Lots of you sent in variations on Golem aching desire for "My Precioussssss," as in "We Wants It. We Needs It. Preciousssss."
A few Harry Potter references: ""Quick give me that vial of polyjuice potion. I can't let Americans see I am Dick Cheney."
Three references to the Simpsons, including: "Maybe if I do my killer Grandpa Simpson impression I can pick up some of that 18-24 demo."
Others were distinctinly ucharitable: "What an attack of integrity looks like."
One reader wanted to make sure her submission was kept separate from her name. "anonymous, please, before I get Joe-the-Plumbered."
One reader quoted the great Satchell Paige: "Don't look back: Some crazy old coot might be chasing after you, panting, with his tongue hanging out and his clammy meat hooks reaching for your skinny ass."
A high school teacher of mine wrote in with: "I can't dance, I can't talk. Only thing about me is the way I walk."
Among the worst: "A chill went up Chris Matthews' leg and a kidney stone went down John McCain's pant legs."
Among the best: "I'm not Bush. You see, my friends, I only fake choking on a pretzel -- hopefully eliciting some media sympathy."
"McCain tries to steal Obama's mantle of change."
"Must ... Touch... The... One."
"John McCain reacts to the revelation of what Joe the Plumber actually does for a living."
"Yuck! Terrorist Cooties."
After the jump... the winner!
The runner up:
McCain's advisers had counseled against debate prep with Gene Simmons for precisely this reason.
And the winner is:
Republican nominee John McCain chokes on a ACORN at the third and final presidential debate in Hempstead, New York.
