On Tonight's Political Debate

John McCain sounds like a whiny baby. How many times is he going to cry about Obama supporters making derogatory remarks against him while not acknowledging that some of his supporters are racist against Obama? This isn't a popularity contest, John! Also, stop talking about fictional "Joe the plumber." First of all, I don't believe Joe the plumber cannot grow his own business if he's truly making over $250k a year (and if it is true, I don't care much; I'm more interested in what McCain plans to do to help everyone who makes less than that).

I think Obama is mopping the floor w/ McCain's shiny, bald head. McCain spends all his time dodging questions (for example, the topic, alternative energy), and would rather start attacking Obama's foreign policy expertise, or worse--start crying that Obama is running negative ads that attack McCain's policies! How about all of McCain's ads that attack Obama, implying that we can't trust him? Also, McCain's frequent references to the past (recalling the Gulf War, the nominations of Chief Justices, etc.) make him sound old and dated. Oh, speaking of references, I was annoyed when he said, "I've gone against my party... and I've got the scars to prove it!" I don't need any references to McCain being a war hero. Quite frankly, I think being a POW has addled his brains when it comes to foreign policy. His answer seems to always be war. That can't be right.

Don't get me wrong. I don't agree w/ everything Obama says, but I think he will make a better President. For example, I don't agree with his reference to "clean coal" because there is no such thing. Ok, that's all for now. Maybe I'll think of more later.
