Reminds me of that dinner during the campaign with McCain and Obama. McCain was a lot funnier. Disagree. McCain is the more natural comedian perhaps. Obama delivered well and his timing was good. The car salesman bit was great, "I'm a little too awesome" was as well. They both had some great moments. McCain got points for being good while getting his clock cleaned. Well, I laughed more when McCain was talking. (No, his jokes not his about to lose big time.) He also recently said that he was glad Obama won the Nobel prize, and we should all be proud. It makes me think he's not so terribly bad. I had a lot of respect for him before the race, then lost it during the race. Seems like he's slowly getting back in my good graces. lol He's an okay guy. I always admired him. Sacrificed some of his character and integrity in order to try and win. I understand the dilemma but he did make some outrageous decisions. The buck stopped where it should have. I did too from everything I read about what he went through and what he did. He's certainly not perfect, as was shown. Of course, ambition is a tough thing to deal with sometimes. It clouds judgement and common sense, or at least has the potential to do so. -- Nom=de=Plume |

His dlilemma was to either take his lumps and go quietly or take some risks and partner with a "maverick" (which seems to be synonomous with insane) from Alaska. His choice to suspend his campaign to address the financial crisis was another doozy. These were desperate acts meant to upset what seemed au fait acompli. I understand the need to pull this kind of crap since the folks surrounding him were obviously asking if he were in the race to win or go gracefully into the night... Desperation won out. |

His choice to suspend his campaign to address the financial crisis was another doozy. He could have taken the high road and had a meaningful debate with Obama. He also seemed to come off the track big time with Palin and suspending the campaign (except that he didn't do the latter). It just created even more doubt, and Obama rightly slammed him when he said presidents should be able to do more than one thing at a time. These were desperate acts meant to upset what seemed au fait acompli. I understand the need to pull this kind of crap since the folks surrounding him were obviously asking if he were in the race to win or go gracefully into the night... Desperation won out. It was too bad. I think he had a (remote) chance at the beginning when Obama got the nomination. -- Nom=de=Plume |
