The Fox pundits knew that McCain needed a knock-out blow. He needed to really hit Obama and portray him as an untrustworthy socialist.
He just couldn't do it. He's spent most of his life running against us, his own party. He just doesn't know how to run against a liberal, he's spent his life kissing their...well, ya know. Hence, the Fox pundits are disappointed.
Page and CNN and all the others can be generous to him, now, since they know he blew his last chance.
Take, for example, the abortion debate. McCain did fine, as far as he went, but he didn't seal the deal by stressing Obama's support for the Freedom of Choice Act -the first piece of legislation Obama will sign into law which will give us the most radical abortion laws in the world.
McCain just doesn't have it in him to actually criticize a Democrat.
I still hope and pray that he wins, but with each passing day its becoming difficult to see just how that will happen
Flame away!
Maybe McCain knows better? Zogby has the race to 4 points, Gallup to 3 points, TIPP to 3 points. Does that sound like someone in need of a knockout? Yes, other polls show it much worse... but maybe they're wrong?
