McCain The Townhall King? Over-Rat-ed! Clap, Clap, Clap, Clap,Clap
I have to say, I am surprised both at how well Obama did in a townhall format, and how mediocre McCain did. He looked pissed, bored, and condescending. His jokes fell flat. Also, who told him it was a good idea to hover over the questioner? It seemed like he was trying desperately hard to think of his talking points. Obama, on the other hand, just came off as very knowledgeable and organized. He also listened, and empathized without being patronizing, as McCain sometimes does.

McCain wanted 10 more townhalls? Is he a glutton for punishment? I think McCain did even more poorly in this debate, than he did in the first.
