Yeah, keep trying to impress us with Palin, McCain. Role model for women my ass. Reformer? Funny, funny man.

Re: Third & Final 2008 Presidential Debate Thread
Jeez, most of his mini-speech on Sarah Palin sounded most of all like a cut-and-paste.

I think Palin's son has Down Syndrome, not Autism. Nice try, John, but fail.

Re: Third & Final 2008 Presidential Debate Thread
Haha, does it sound to anyone else that Obama sounded like he was having a really hard time trying to sufficiently compliment Palin?

Okay. Is it just me, or did he just stray dangerously close to the anti-vaccine craziness when talking about autism on the rise?

Obama was awfully gentle to Sarah Palin. I was hoping for another smackdown moment, but I hope that his gentlemanly attitude flies with the swing voters. I'm already sold, after all.

Re: Third & Final 2008 Presidential Debate Thread
Okay. I really liked the way Obama took McCain's autism comment and noted that if McCain wants to get serious about you can't have a budget freeze.
I was thinking the same thing too Temjin.

I think even Bob Schieffer is starting to get exasperated by McCain.

McCain's last chance. He's being more forceful but just giving Obama more to have fun smacking down. That's what's going on.Mr Bean wrote:This debate is... fun?

Did McCain say Palin would be a "breast" of fresh air, or was I just hearing what I wanted to hear?
Re: Third & Final 2008 Presidential Debate Thread
I think that is what McCain almost said.
OMG OBAMA ONLY WANTS US TO LOOK AT OFFSHORE DRILLING!!!!!
...and he's never been to Mexico? Huh?

If I had to bet, I'd guess Obama is more likely to know where it is. After all, he seemed confused over the location of Spain and Iran.Ohma wrote:...and he's never been to Mexico? Huh?

Oooh, McCain calls out Obama on not knowing about Colombia, and Obama comes back with a thoughtful understanding of the issues surrounding Colombian free trade.
This is a way more awesome debate than the last ones.

I have never seen anyone give an "Oh Shit" face as clearly as McCain just did when Obama started talking about Columbia.
