It's almost like the question threw him for a loop.PassTheChipshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06072641781067595586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10584284.post-27802216804179690902008-10-08T09:07:00.000-07:002008-10-08T09:07:00.000-07:00I thought that McCain started very strong but I al...I thought that McCain started very strong but I also think Obama did a good job to deflect. For instance, McCain put the shotgun to his head and pulled the trigger saying that Obama and his cronnies are responsible for this economy right now because they were against proper regulation and that Obama is the 2nd highest recipient of loans from Countrywide. Obama responded by talking about needing to unfreeze the credit markets. Nice deflection.<BR/><BR/>I also thought that McCain had a better closing (the Zen question), perhaps it was because he went last, or maybe it was because Obama said there are a lot of things he doesn't/hasn't known and he learns them from his wife. I don't know much about her, but all of the impressions I've received so far are full of anti-American sentiment. I liked the tribute to his wife, but think there are a lot of other things he could've said that would've been a lot more effective.Bubba the Hutthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06396388730329923075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10584284.post-73258822210843513652008-10-07T20:26:00.000-07:002008-10-07T20:26:00.000-07:00I actually think I liked McCain]s performance bett...I actually think I liked McCain]s performance better tonight on most issues (healthcare excluded). I'm surprissed to see the talking heads saying that Obama was more effective, but whatever.<BR/><BR/>Either way, I certainly agree that this is Obama's to loose. He will be very cautious over the next month. McCain will keep pushing, but will probably not look good in the process.<BR/><BR/>Get ready for more and more voter registration scandals to start flying.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17710423243918815319noreply@blogger.com
