There is no debate on tonight. The format precludes that. This is dueling talking points. Nothing more, nothing less. The two can’t really engage each other.
EXACTLY
And McCains soft loving voice on his talking points is more like a Barry White Lovers music fest.
I turned it off not long after it started. I just couldn’t take anymore.
“There is no debate on tonight. The format precludes that. This is dueling talking points. Nothing more, nothing less. The two cant really engage each other.”
Honestly, its a better debate than other previous painful experiences. But so many issues were not covered.
Barack was unfortunately more smooth and is pretending to be less liberal than he really is, and key issues like life/abortion and marriage are not raised. It’s mostly about how much the Government will bail us out in many ways. You can’t outcompete a Democrat when its all about gimme-the-money.
I dont think the dynamic of the race changed. McCain made the right case as best he could:
“We need a steady hand at the tiller and I always put my country first.”
