Obama has plenty of good ideas, but he didn’t seem like he had a shred of insight into the realities of being the leader of the free world.
I thought Obama spewed lots of chic Bush-blame toward McCain and didn’t really speak with much vision.
To his credit, Obama did his best to not sound ignorant. I thought he used phrases like “let me be clear” and his 1, 2, 3 points to figure out what to say.
In the first part of the debate, I thought McCain showed a lot of restraint and didn’t bite on a lot of the more ridiculous accusations that Obama was tossing.
As I twittered earlier, I thought McCain spoke with vision and conviction, while Obama whined about “8 years of failed ___ policies.” I want details.
Barack’s “oh, I have a bracelet, too” response was really lame. At least remember the dude’s name. Sheesh.
I wished that McCain would have defended his tax plan better. A lot of Obama’s accusations went unchallenged. I’ve read enough about the advantages McCain’s tax plan.
I just don’t think Obama can handle being president of our country. Everyone knows that Bill Clinton is a darn good public speaker. People say the same thing about Obama. But you know what, Clinton is going to be remembered for lying and screwing around with Monica Lewinsky. It’s about the substance of the character not eloquent words dripping with honey.
