Doesn't matter if Obama has less experience. HE IS A SMARTER HUMAN BEING.
Obama wasn't begging for follow-ups. Both were making good points. The immature part is McCain trying to act younger and funny, and making hand/face gestures while Obama is speaking, and trying to put words in Obama's mouth. His writers must be on strike or got laid off due to the economy.

So since I'm a smarter human being than you and I prefer McCain to Obama, does that make McCain's candidacy more legitimate than Obama's?

Only problem with that statement is the part about you being a smarter human being than anyone. That's laughable.
Re: The Official 2nd Presidential Debate Thread - 10/7/08
I missed most of this. But from what I saw, it just sounded like the same old talking points from both. Also didn't like how Obama went into his life story for the 1000th time instead of actually answering the question on what he didn't know and what he'd do to find out

i would not be so sure... there's still a lot of time and opportunity for "swift boats." in addition, you cannot dismiss the potential for the "Bradley effect."

:oldlol:
dude its over. it was the same old **** they have been spewing.
obama has 264 electoral votes on lock.
He just needs to win one of these states and mccain did nothing extravagant to sway independents.

Not looking good for McCain at this point. I'd be more worried if Ayers and Wright wasn't old news. We'll see how much it affects the polls over the next 10 days.

early response to the new attacks have been seen in a negative light for mccain. I think the fact that he was known to have opposed negative personal attacks so adamantly is coming back to bite him in the ass.

i agree about the Bradley effect but I also wonder just how accurate these polls even are b/c they only account for land lines most of the time and there are so many people these days that only have cell phones.

The last two elections, liberals have talked endlessly about the collective ignorance of the average American for voting George Bush twice.
They said the people who voted him into office were simply mesmerized by idealistic campaign propaganda and motivated by mob-think bandwagon mentality.
Let me ask you something. Do you think that in the four years since the last election, America's collective IQ has miraculously spiked, or the same exact thing is happening again, simply with a candidate from the other party?

people cant learn from their mistakes?
or perhaps they are looking at the issues at hand and choosing appropriately with what they feel is best for them and the country?
nah why would people ever vote based on those things. im sure all the traditionally red states will just vote for mccain just cause hes a good ol boy from the grand old party
