McCain Did Better Than bush Did in His Debates

[stopbush]

That's what the "McCain won" people are actually considering, not how he did against Obama.

1. Now you've really lowered the bar. n/t

[Omnibus]

2. Still not a bar Palin will get over. n/t

[iceman66]

3. But Obama did better than Kerry!

4. There's an overlaying thing...

...that nobody is mentioning. McCains judgement of Obama...he doesn't understand...seemed so absurd to me after having watched clips of Palin talking about Putin rearing his head over her airspace!!! Apparently he thinks Palin has enough foreign policy knowledge to make her ready, but Obama isn't?????

5. I think that this is why the 527 age/cancer ad popped up now.

To get people to link Palin to the presidency while John is talking about how valuable experience is.

6. A street crazy could debate better than Bush.

This is no argument.

7. I've known a few street crazies.

Some of them are the best debaters I've ever seen. Not in terms of the standard rules of debate, but in terms of obfuscation, changing the subject, and confusing the question, they'll have you so turned around that you'll give them money just to go away. That, I think, was more or less Bush's strategy in his debates with Kerry.

9. Sounds like some die-hard Republicans I know.

8. And bush won, didn't he?
