I’ve tried to tune out this topic as I know I’m in the minority here and probably can’t convince anyone to see it differently.
Someone pops up and says something like this - what are the candidates choices?
1. He could smile, acknowledge the remark, and be accused of acreeing with it. Oh, many Freepers would love that, it’s red meat to the lions, but how would we like the headlines that would dog McCain-Palin the rest of the campaign?
2. He could ignore it. In which case we’d be seeing continuous loops of the question and his response in Obama’s next ad, with the tagline of “Dishonorable, disrespectful”...
3. Or he could respond as he did. Maybe he could have chosen better words under pressure, but I still say he made the right choice, given the task at hand is not to cater to people like us but to attract independent uncommitted voters.
OK I feel better now...
Or 4. Leave it at “let’s be respectable and NOT admonish ZeroH’s accomplishments, cause he has NONE!!!
