Presidential Debate the Second

This will be brief, as I don’t have much to say on last night’s debate.  Despite the format, it was almost exactly the same as the first one.  I heard the same statistics, the same answers, even some of the same metaphors.  I mean, come on…these people are undecided, obviously what you have said so far hasn’t persuaded them…so come up with something new!

I was getting very pissed off at McCain, though.  Don’t pretend to be my friend, you pro-war, anti-choice, old, ignorant bastard.  And he does not look good walking around with a microphone in his hand.  Obama definitely commanded attention more than McCain did.  And “this one” was so patronizing, it drove me crazy!  He is so retrograde, and not in the cool “I like wearing my mom’s old go-go boots” kind of way…in the stuck in the Reagan-era way, in the way that he cannot grasp the modern world and that we need a different approach to things…not the same old thing again and again.

The next debate is on a Friday…I think I’m finally going to get the opportunity to play drinking games without feeling so guilty!  Take a shot for every mention of maverick, POW, preconditions, “I looove yooou But-ray-us”, fundamental.  Wow, you are going to be so drunk.
