McCain's throwing-out so much junk that Obama sounds like he's not sure how to respond without looking just as childish as his opponent. Problem is, right now, he's biting the bait...

this is a good idea for now. other thread was damn near hijacked
I feel the same way. Obama is looking at McCain wanting to say, 'you can't be serious' but hes holdin back

MODERATOR: "Climate control."
MCCAIN: "...Climate change."
MODERATOR: "Uh, yeah. Climate change."
Wow. Didn't know it mattered that much!
Y'know, I like Obama. But when it comes to energy sources, his opposition to nuclear power is retarded. He speaks better than McCain, but the fact that McCain's campaign supports the development of a power source which inexpensively fuels post-industrial states around the world really makes him look like an old-fashioned, 1960s, anti-Soviet Union/Chernobyl peon.

Nuclear Reactors are bad.
Whichever one is against it would get my vote.

Not that I would expect any better than you, but explain why the negatives outweigh the positives with nuclear power (insane amounts of energy production, very little pollution) and then your opinion might mean something.

The thing is that McCain himself seems like a pretty good guy. To be honest, when he first was running-through the Republican primaries, I was glad to hear what he was saying. On his own, he's rather affable. But when he's doing nothing except trying to slap Obama for being a terrorist sympathiser or having mainline Republican opinions put in his mouth, he's completely and utterly intolerable.
I might vote for "Real McCain." I'd never vote for "Neo-Con McCain."
Goddamn, Obama is pwning McCain's conservative healthcare plan. (Not that I much like Obama's, as I want a straight-up communist healthcare plan, but still, as with the rest of the election, it's the lesser of two evils, now.)
HAHAHA. McCain slipped and called Obama "Senator Government." It might have been a mistake, but it was an inadvertent burn on liberal governance.

Agreed. But would Joe The Plumber vote for the "Real McCain"?
Whoops, McCain just mentioned transplants again. That went over like a fart in church last time.

You and I both know that "logic" is not something which pairs well with a description of the majority of the American people. Nevertheless, Obama's not changing my mind, nor is McCain. Obama says "McCain stands for this" and frankly, I know that already. McCain says "Obama stands for this" and yes, I know that, too. The only people this debate could possibly affect so far are those who have yet to learn anything about these candidates or, for whatever illogical, over-emotional reason, gets hung-up on one possible thing "Obama is E-V-I-L because he supports partial birth abortion!" or "McCain is the D-E-V-I-L because he does not support greater healthcare availability!"
Sad, really, but in a two-party system, the only way to win is to "capture the middle ground" and as a result, any truly daring, revolutionary opinion-statements are practically suicide in a one-on-one debate.
true i agree man

When John McCain talks about programmes to help the American people, my brain shuts off. The reason?--Because no matter how many programmes he and many of his fellow Republicans want or claim to promote to help the general public, they're never going to have enough money (and thus, have an excuse not to enact them) because their propositions for taxes to pay for these programmes just don't match-up.
McCain is interjecting himself into Obama's comments a lot. From my perspective, he's just making himself look uncomfortable and of ill-confidence. He even tried to make a joke at the end of the "education" section and...uh...I think he was the only one laughing.
PS- Thanks to evil son for making a thread by-which we could post play-by-play commentaries. I know I wouldn't have been posting had the only option been the normal OBAMA-MCCAIN thread.

Obama won based on consistency and message. McCain took the aggressor role but pissed all over himself by coming across as petty and arrogant.

While I'm not exactly fighting the pure-and-simple logic you're using there, the problem which reasonable, intellectual, studied, or attentive people seem to face in every American election is that mathematics is far too logical to apply to the emotion-driven voters which dominate the populace of this state.

Obama's turtle game was ridiculously strong. McCain looked like he was about to cry during his comments on the rally's and he fucked himself over on this one.
Though i was getting tired of the Joe the Plumber BS. Some dude got his 15 minutes of fame because he questioned Obama's tax plan. Now all of sudden, he's a hero?
Yeah right

Deep down we know he wanted to laugh his ass off when he made that comment.
