Now this is getting a bit over-the-top. I watched while the candidates and their wives all greeted each other. Everybody looked everybody in the eye, though not for very long, I grant, and if there's a score to be recorded here, the Obamas turned and left the stage before the McCains did.
I think that Nicholas Kristol scored it all best when he said that Obama took the first round, that there were two ties and the other five rounds went to McCain. A solid victory with no knockdowns and no knockout.
And I personally don't care if Sen McCain looks Sen Obama in the eye for longer than absolutely necessary. Maybe after the man has actually done something worth looking him hin the eye to respond to, but not while he's still posing as a leader.
He’s the whackjob who is claiming to have had gay sex and cocaine fest with OB. Not something I care about really, but he has been really out there with it.
That and the drug dose has finally reached the tipping (tripping) point.
While the DUmmies are all in a high hover tizz over how poorly their candidate did last night, the Republican reaction to McCain’s performance couldn’t seem to be more solid.
Last night Dick Morris was fuming afterwards because McCain did not go in for the kill on the bailout plan. However, there will be time to do that and both candidates may have agreed not to address that too much in public while the deal was still in the works.
Other than Morris, who nevertheless said that McCain won on points, most of us think McCain’s performance was a job well done.
The contrast between that reaction and the DUmmie’s is very telling.
You are right on that.
DUmmie Alert!
Hmph...
Given that, he should have whupped McCain handily, don't you think?
Think about it...Obama trains for two years, non-stop, then gets to the heavyweight championship bout, and can't beat Grandad, who's actually been working his day job most of that time.
Heh...
Yep. That's about the way I see it.
