“I am no fan of McCain but his Republican credentials are greater than Mitt or Julie Annie and have shown through tonight Thompson and McCain have done well tonight.”

McCain emoted just like a Dem tonite. He uses the emotion ploy to suck in the politically ignorant. He did not do well tonite unless you like his constant appeal to the emotional level, such as on his waterboard torture issue, or his I visited the troops mantra.

He's done that during each and every debate and only seems to impress the talking heads that follow these debates. Case in point what most see as boring, tiring and repetitious, is contrary to David Gergen and Campbell Brown who are singing his praises now to Cooper. His poll numbers tell the story!

McCain has a Republican voting record. He does not have to manufacture a Republican past like Mitt and Julie Annie. McCain's weaknesses are his age, his temperament, the Keating Five, the campaign finance reform debacle, and more importantly to the here and now, his stance on illegal immigration. But with all that baggage he will get a bump because, he forcefully presented himself and MSM have a soft spot in the heart for him.
