It’s all about presentation. Obama looks more forceful than McCain and he is a smooth talker. He’s getting the percentage of the population that doesn’t care about answers or policy or experience...you know the kind. They are the ones who make their decision based on really important things, like how a person pronounces NUCLEAR.
(A) I don’t have a tv now. I’ll probably get it fixed sooner than later to continue watching DVDs etc. but for now I watch them on a laptop.
(B) I listen to the debates on radio. Also makes it possible to FReep during a debate. Even home viewers who are doing something else other than staring at a tv have a virtual radio.
(C) people say that McCain “looks” angry. Only if you are watching the screen. Same with the bogus talk of Palin “winking” and “seducing” the audience. She wasn’t winking at me.
(D) Jimmy Carter was a nuclear scientist and he couldn’t pronounce the word. It is a common gaffe. Other commonly transposed or mispronounced words are jewelry (not jewlry) and caramel (not carmel).
