Not to pick on you personally - but to all those who are saying McCain is sucking wind tonight - would you have the same opinion had he been up by 5 points heading into this debate?

We are not picking on him. Hell, we want him to win.

Yes. He's now pounding on environmentalism. Ugh! He's right about Nuclear Power, though.

I wouldn’t go so far as to say McCain is sucking wind, but he is not doing what Sarah Palin intimated he’d do tonight. I’m not hearing attacks, I’m hearing bipartisanship. I’m not hearing names being named, I’m hearing generalities. Sorry, that’s just what I hear. (and McCain simply plain old “sounds” winded. I wonder if he’s getting a cold or something).

I think some folks who are complaining about how McCain's doing are just listening and not watching at the same time. Listening and posting here causes (me anyway) to not give full attention to what is being said.

McCain is doing good, for the most part. He has stumbled a bit, but he is connecting with the folks in the audience on the stage, and making sense for the most part. I think that is good - because he is also connecting with folks watching.

Obama is a cracker. A low-sodium cracker.
