Is anyone else watching Frontline?

[sniffa]

I know it's a half hour in, but put it on if you can.

It's about Obama and McCain, and right now the Obama portion is incredible.

Watch the replays if you can.

1. i plan on watching it tonight, still a few hours to go here.

[Coexist]

2. thanks - I'll dvr it

appreciate the heads up.

[pettypace]

3. So far so good

Footage from Barack's days at HLS, and a scathing anecdote about his first note to Senate aides....

Frontline rocks.

[Dinger]

4. Thanks for The Heads Up (nt)

[Ozma]

5. Thanks, I had enough of Rachel, as good as she is... it's too much

I want to see some other stuff, this is wonderful.

Just got in at the Harvard Law Review part.

6. Yes, it's certainly a better bet than watching the Red Sox right now.

9. it's really fascinating

even the part on McCain is good. I've never seen the video of him talking from his hospital bed before. His voice seemed so tinged with pain.

[sniffa]

12. I know!

Still, a great show for both.

[pettypace]

15. The part with his voice breaking was intense

Hit me pretty hard.

[charlie and algernon]

10. yup, I love it

protraying Obama as a maverick and McCain as an Opportunist

[mucifer]

11. I think they both seem oportunistic.

But, it's very interesting.

[elkston]

13. Yeah, they are describing his whole US Senate career as a calculated power play

Barack, that is.

[Cha]

14. Wow! Thank

you!

[AwakeAtLast]

16. DVR is set.

Thanks for posting, I would have missed it!

:hi:

[charlie and algernon]

17. talking about the Keating 5 now!

[Ozma]

18. I wish they would re-broadcast this several times before the election

It's balanced, it's very critical of both people, very very in-depth.

I think this would put Obama over the top for 88% to 99% of Americans.

This is amazing, McCain screwed around, with women, with his personal life, with Keating 5, but this shows him as being just a fault-filled Senator.......who went on to run for the Presidency AGAIN in 2008.

! This is TOTALLY FAIR on both of them, no candidate is perfect, just choose the one with more smarts.

That's what I do.
