So McCain REALLY wants to have town hall's across America with Obama TOGETHER

[NotThisTime]

Why do I find this to be the biggest GIFT??

McCain can't speak, he can only attack, Obama can defend attacks AND speak to issues, who's the winner on this one? Unless all these town hall's might be in places Obama would never be welcomed in the first place!

1. I wonder if McSame will have his codpiece in to hear

what Liebermann and Graham will correct or tell him what to say.

2. McCain want to be carted around on Obama's jet

and propped up next to him to have a camera pointed near him

4. It will be the only way that McCunt can attract enthusiastic audiences.

LOL!

3. McSame will be Obama's mini me.

thus far he has attempted to copy Obama's message of Change in a perveted version....and the "To believe in".

Poor little McCunt! He's gonna have a hard time keeping up with his much taller leader. :)

5. After last night, I think the old man decided they didn't want this

to be about dueling speeches.

11. NO he actually requested it again TODAY!!!

He is so delusional....

From the sounds of it, he does not want camera's in these town hall meetings.... too bad I say... If I were Obama I'd demand them LOL....

6. He's aiming for the pity vote

7. Oh right!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sure, we'll do that for ya McSame! Provide you with the huge exposure, the huge crowds, the transportation to get there....and to the next one, etc. Plus, we will take your boring old ass and inane smile along for the ride. On the other hand.....do your own. You are just toooooooooooo boring to be hanging out with for that long.

8. Appearing with Obama is the only way McSame gets really huge turnouts.

JM was humiliated when he had to relocate his fundraiser with GWB because they couldn't fill the convention center.

No doubt McSame figures if he holds town halls with Obama, he can claim all those overflow crowds actually showed up to see him.

9. Don't be too hasty

Townhalls are what saved McCain's primary run when it was completely DOA.

He may be beyond awful reading off a teleprompter, but he connects well in more intimate settings like a townhall.

That is why they are suggesting this. If it becomes a battle of speeches he is (even more) doomed.

10. You nailed it. McCain figures he is better in a townhall setting then Obama

I think the McCain campaign figures that Obama's debate performance against Hillary is typical of how he will preform without a teleprompter and they want to capitalize on it.

12. Its his best strength, compared with his speech giving ability. And Obama stumbles a lot when

speaking. Not in a bad way, he just goes eeeeehm, a lot, and takes a lot of time to think.

I still think Obama can beat McCain even in that setting, BUT remember, its all aout how the media spins such confrontational events, not who really gives the best answers, and you can always plant questioners in the audience, who will ask awkard questions.

Obama won't bite anyway though.
