I don’t know. Warren was sweating and fidgeting and swallowing. All signs of being uncomfortable and “anxious”. Warren knows people were falling asleep.
NObama was boring!

But McCain... I found myself in tears. I have been
praying for months that if he is our President, God
would make him “our man”.

McCain IS OUR MAN! I had Reagan goose bumps
and hope. God bless John McCain!

For the first time I can think of in ‘08, at least, he comes across as the kind of guy a lot of conservatives can want to vote for, rather than merely settle for.

Yep. With tonight's sterling performance, McCain moved from my NObama candidate to my John McCain for president candidate.

Just crossing my fingers that he continues the momentum of the past 3-4 weeks by picking a solid running mate.

My prayer was that God would fashion this man for greatness because we need him to become more than he has been. I think we may be witnessing just that!

NObama’s head cocked to the side the whole time gave me a
freakin’ HEADACHE! Someone tell that guy to sit straight.

McCain talked to the audience.
NObama talked down to them.

MCain is the real deal. Did you know he had an adopted daughter from bangladesh?

McCain’s faith is so personal to him, he could barely tell the story of the guard who drew the cross in the dirt on Christmas Day.

McCain will be President for ALL Americans.

McCain knew about Rick Warren’s ministries.

McCain won me over. I haven’t felt this excited since
I campaigned for Ronald Reagan. If you could see me,
you’d notice that I’m wagging my tail... er... (inside
family humor). Never mind. (blusing)

I disagree. Since I will be voting for neither, I was looking forward to doing a back to back comparison on these two and, content aside, the differences were stark. Obama appeared far more relaxed and confident about the discussion...almost happy to be there. His answers were thoughtful, to the point, and from an offensive position. McCain appeared anxious and defensive from the minute he sat down, almost like he was forced to participate.

Like I said, I’ll be voting for neither, and IMO, content aside, where presentation is concerned, Obama took this, hands down.

Yes, definitely go to bed ... you never know what your ears may be typing as you catch that ‘cat nap’ on the keyboard.

Gergen looked shell shocked. It was the high point of my night.

Gergen did look devastated. He knows the dems are in trouble.

On to the debates! Meanwhile, here’s a poll to Freep about the forum tonight - McCain’s ahead.

LOL! I said “tail” wagging. Now I get it.

When my daughter was really little she got
so excited she couldn’t stand still. Her
little butt would wag. Pretty soon, the
whole family started wagging their tails
when we got excited. It’s actually pretty
cute.

Do you have a smiley face with a waggily tail?
