Question of the Week:
Wednesday, October 15, 2008
Just finished watching the debate. Did anyone do a count on how many times McCain rolled his eyes? How about failed jokes? How about showing his angry side? How about how many times he tried to distract us all from the issues?
Just like the VP debate and Sarah Palin, expectations were extremely low for John McCain. I think we need to hold our candidates to a much higher standard. Simply because McCain was able to attack Obama and distract voters, the media claims that he shined and put forth his best performance. I am not convinced. He did more than he did in the last two debates, but was it really all that strong? Was it very substantive? It seemed like a lot of distractions and attacks from an angry man who shows clear disdain for his opponent.
Did McCain ever repudiate those in the audience who cried for Obama's death? That he was a terrorist? I never heard that. And somehow, McCain spun that around and tried to claim Obama was calling his supporters bad people. Seriously? Are we supposed to be that gullible?
More later...when we have more time to digest this all.

I want John McCain to keep talking about all of these character assassination of Obama. I'm loving it because it keeps widening the gap. I knew this would happen before all the pundits did. You know why because it tarnished Hillary Clinton's image for doing it. John McCain should have ran as John McCain of 2000. Instead he hired Bush thugs to run his campaign. Good game John McCain you will lose. It's very important though that Barack Obama never underestimate McCain and let his guard down.
