Obama and McCain battled it out in the third and final debate of the 2008 U.S. Presidential election while Bravo television aired the episode where they announce the winner of Project Runway.
So now we’re confused. Did McCain get “auffed” and is Leanne going to be our next president?
We’re all wondering which show got the higher ratings since it feels like our elections have become a reality TV show.
Who will win Project Presidency?
On today’s show two fabulous Chicago queer bloggers join us to judge the candidates- Michael Lehet, from the Chicago Examiner and Rick Aiello from The Launching Pad.
But, the real debate of the day is who would you rather date? Prince William or Harry? One third of gay men polled wanted Harry and 23% said William but a full third also said they wouldn’t touch either of them.
Did the Feast of Fools tribute video to Madonna’s “Four Mintues” send her over the edge and announce her divorce to husband Guy Ritiche? There she goes reinventing herself into a single lady again.
Elton John reveals his preferred ice cream flavor of choice— it’s not something you’d want to eat, but it’s delicious.
Does greed cause gayness in Uganda? According to Bishop Luzinda the quest for money will make you fall in love with someone of the sex, well, that’s not how he put it exactly.
An Ohio man claimed that he was too fat to die by lethal injection. Unfortunately, the courts didn’t believe him.
Oregon man, Thad Starr grew a great big 1,528 pound pumpkin. The pumpkin grew an average of thirty pounds a day!
Mark Ciptak of Elizabethton is doing what he can for the McCain/Palin ticket by naming his baby daughter Sarah McCain Palin. We’re not sure what the wif thinks of it yet but he did it behind her back.
Although the word is still out if Ellen Degeneres (one of the wealthiest gay women in old media) is putting her money where her mouth is and donated any money to fight for marriage equality in California. Her lovely mom Betty DeGeneres has pulled out the coffee can and pitched in $700.
With great respect to one of the great talk show hosts and boldest gay icons of our time, this is way too little. Come on Ellen, Portia and mom! We know you can donate a little more.
What did you do today to help defeat Prop 8? You know it’s time to do something to defeat this proposition – donate money or canvass the streets. Do whatever you can but do something! Even if you’re broke, you can donate a lucky amount of money, how about $7 to the cause?

Hey Boys – Thank you so much for having me on the show, I always have a blast and it was super cool being there with Rick Aiello!!!!
I just hope that who ever wins Project Presidency gets the Auf Wiedersehen from Heidi!
Great show guys, I like the “panel discussion” format. Sort of like a gay CNN! LOVE IT!
Rick’s really cute
I’m pissed that Korto didn’t win. Her collection was SOOO fabulous. Much better than Leanne’s.
@Craig – yes he is!
Fantastic format guys, I am amazed nobody talked over anybody, must be great chemistry
A spoiler would have been nice but no biggie, in a way it relieved the anxiety (prolly a healthy thing) I get everytime they do the cut at the end. Leanne had just as strong a POV and aesthetic as Christian did the previous season.
Michael and Rick are hot studs!!!! mmmmmmmm —- Joe the plumber sounds hot too!!! wonder if he’s a tranny chaser…..
A spoiler? It already aired. It’s fair game.
I was very disappointed that Korto didn’t win. I thought her collection was way better than Leanne’s. I actually thought that Kenley’s collection was better than Leanne’s too, but she deserved to be the first one to get the boot. She was so annoying.
No way, Leanne’s was the best!
Thanks, Craig!
This was a really fun night – the four of us really had a great time and, I agree, we had great chemistry. The show was organic, and I love things like that!
As for Project Runway – I’m not surprised that Leanne won, but in hindsight I really liked Korto’s collection better. I agree with Fausto that Kenley’s collection was bright and colorful (I did like her painted fabrics) but the silhouettes were awkward and grossly outdated. Korto simply over-adorned everything, which was her downfall. Leanne won because her point of view was clear and the collection was cohesive.
Which is a lot more than can be said of McCain’s performance in the debates.
Wasn’t the debate also to show their mastery of diplomacy, a show of do you think I will represent you best? McCain was rolling his eyes and acting like a dirty choir boy, not a shred of diplomatic ability at all. He looked nervous and frankly freaked out.
Obama beat him in every line and in every way. At the end with the wives we see the trophy wife and the old husband and two sleak gorgeous highly educated people who I would say..yes, please represent America and lets shut the door on those old dirty bastards. That Cindy needs to go on What Not To Wear, the British version.
Love the program. I had to pause several times on the train coz Fausto was making me laugh.
This was a fun show to listen to! Rick and Michael should come on more often!
I’ll take Harry. Then Rick. Then Michael. Then Marc. Then Fausto.
Great show! I love the interaction with you four. May I have another sir?
