Round Two Goes to Obama

John McCain had a very strong debate tonight. It's too bad for him that it came on a night when Barack Obama was nearly flawless.

I really like that "nearly" flawless.
It's McCain/Palin for anyone with the ability to engage their brain.

THE PRICK FACTOR

t last night's debate, the second in the series, McCain dispelled the rumors about his supposed senility.

If he's senile, I sure didn't see it. He was quick, clever, in possession of all the facts, a real scrapper who pushed Obama to the limit time and again.

But he was also nasty, crude and without personal charm and could not hide these deficits nor seemed aware of how unattractive these qualities are.

I repeat, the man had no charm nor seemed aware of what the quality is.

And if you were watching CNN his and Cindy's abrupt departure instead of working the crowd the way Obama and Michele did was also a peek into the man's lack of personal charm.

This is the same quality that contrasted Kennedy and Nixon in 1960.

Kennedy and Nixon were equally expert with the issues. Nixon just came across as a certified prick.

You're right, but Bush sets the bar low. Kim Jong-il is a harder working Head of State than Bush. Seems smarter too.

John did great here, dispelled claims to senility, he wins just like the maverick that he is. I know a certain somebody that dispelled rumors she would not form actual words in a debate, but in your face, DemocRats, she actually achieved speech! WTG John, you nailed it [not senile]

It made me more convinced how untrustworthy Obama really is. McCain pointed out how Obama promised tax cuts for Illinois voters and yet voted for tax increases or moves to cut taxes 55 times.

With any luck, he'll be impeached within a year for fraud. Just another scam artist who can talk the talk, but not walk the walk.

McCain is just a bitter old man with poor judgement.

Obama is smart and hard working... Harvard Law!

My ego is intact enough that I don't need a president to constantly kiss my ass, charm me and tell me what a great citizen I am. I'd rather have someone who's not afraid to be a little rough and kick some butt when he needs to. I'm not interested in an administration whose best quality is they can "work a room"

Obama was born in Hawaii as you well know. That makes him a natural born citizen. Think of something else that isn't true because that one won't stick. His birth certificate is posted online, as well.

Which hospital? That's why it's a federal case. They can produce a 'doctored' birth certificate from the State of Hawaii but not one issued by the hospital.

For me the critical question was about Health Care and whether they considered it as a privillege, a responsibility or a right.
Mc Cain said that Health Care is a responsibility
Obama said that it’s a right.
Just their answers to this question alone speak volumes as to why Americans should vote for Obama.
