Something I have noticed is whenever Sen. McCain refers to Obama, he says Senator Obama, and most of the times Sen. Obama refers to Sen. McCain he calls him John, which I find condescending.
McCain is much more fluid about foreign affairs.
Remove all doubt. This is the reason why Obama did not want to have additional townhall debates.
I think Obama mistook the word “audacity” for “arrogance.” He needs to realize that if you truly are the better candidate, then your ideas will speak for themselves without the help of snickers, interruptions, and telling Jim to “move on” while McCain is talking.
Obama as president is scaring me more and more–he was losing control there when he decided to direct the debate
Obama just said that because we’re spending x-number of dollars on the war that “we” can’t afford to provide health care to people - just where in the Constitution does it say that it is the job of the federal government to provide health care to the populace? If government would get its sticky paws out of my pockets, I could afford to pay for my own health care - and would much prefer to do so as then I would be in charge, not some bean-counter.
OK….McCain’s performance on a 1 - 10 scale?
8.2
Barry’s performance?
4.3
McSame had no answer to the economy problems except 'bi-partisian' crap, no plan at all. It is very simple you want the same old crap we have had the last 8 years, vote McSame. If you really want any kind of change, vote Obama.
Mc Cain slaughtered Obama tonight, hands down..
BHO: hemmena, hemmena, hemmena, eh, eh, eh, Bush…as I’ve said before…uh uh uh …
One thing that really stood out was Obama continually interrupting McCain, and his arrogant, elitist, snobbery, attitude especially when he would put out his left hand and tell the moderator “Please Continue” and “Let’s move on.”
And lastly, I cannot believe that Obama decided to end the debate telling the world how screwed up our country is. Way to get that middle America vote Obama!
'McSame', 'McSame' duuuuh duuuuh 'McSame', 'McSame'.... Can't yopu come up with something more original?
'McSame had no answer to the economy problems except 'bi-partisian' crap, no plan at all.'
Again. another lie, McCain has given plenty of specifics, you just don't hear what you don't want to hear.
first hour McCain slight edge
last half hour was a slaughterhouse, McCain clear winner.
John did a good job, more aggressive in a presidential way, more tolerant, more knowledgeable.
McCain had more energy. McCain was more honest. Obama's eyes looked shady. You could see the intense stress in Obama's eyes. McCain was cool, calm and passionate. This was nothing compared to an aerial dogfight. McCain won convincingly.
best smack ...I don't have a seal yet....
'Obama, 47, rejected McCain's request to postpone the debate'
Obama is 47? He looks like he should have a beanie with a propeller on top and a balloon tied to his wrist.
''McSame', 'McSame' duuuuh duuuuh 'McSame', 'McSame'.... Can't yopu come up with something more original?'
Can't you come up with a spell check?
He sounded like it over and over and kept saying 'I know what to do' 'till it was ridiculous. He is living in the past like all old guys!
McCain is so tightly wrapped up in the Iraq war, he can't begin to understand the disgusting amount of money still being wasted there and that the focus should be on Afghanistan and Pakistan and Osama. He talks like a career soldier whose main objective is fighting and winning at all costs foregoing a good reason.
8 times Obama said, well i agree with McCain , but. hmm. so i have to steal McCains thoughts and use them for me, me , me.
I loved how McCain was quite detailed when discussing the Caucuses, and all barry could do was agree with McCain. Obama's inexperience really showed through when the subject fell on Russia.
John Mccane is going to get another boost in the poles but maybe it wont last to long.
we will have to wait and see what sp4 has to say before we make up our minds so just hold tight till he gets here.
what SP will say, so don't hold your breath. McCain acted like a smarta** with that disgusting, know-it-all smirk, and I wasn't impressed with his stubborn attitude that reeks of Bush all over again. His constant use of I, I, I and not keeping to the subject, but trying to change it to things he wanted to talk about was a big turn off. So many times he didn't actually respond to the question at hand. Maverick of the Senate and Bridge to Nowhere are starting to smell they are so stale.
'we will have to wait and see what sp4 has to say before we make up our minds '
That is pretty much the case, isn't it? kind of pathetic.
SP's comments are fodder for our entertainment!
why McCain refused to look at Obama when he was talking to him - sneaky snake or confused about the rules?? The VP debate should be a real show stopper unless Palin is able to memorize a couple of facts driven into her by her party, and she keeps hammering on them or she will keep hedging on the answers and turning them into what she wants to talk about - maybe 'first dude' and 'bridge to nowhere'!!! Without a script, she is a dull bulb!
