It really comes down to the debates.  If Obama can successfully picture McCain as old and sour, he will win.  If McCain can be as articulate as he was in Saddleback, then he will win.

And no, neither Obama nor McCain will win big.  I see it coming down to the last bunch of ballot boxes in Jefferson county, Colorado.

LOL

Did you think McCain did badly in saddleback?  You should at least explain the "LOL" you posted.

He sure as hell wasn't articulate. Of course we might have different definitions of the word, but throwing one liner red meat at a fundie crowd isn't my definition of articulate. It was like Mccain was trying to keep it simple and it obviously worked with that crowd.

I sure think that he was articulate, and I'm not a fundie.  If you disagree with someone, I don't really think a "LOL" is necessary unless a statement is completely foolish.

I really thought Mccain was the exact opposite of articulate that day which is why I found your statement funny. And I have seen Mccain being articulate so its not as if I think he is some bumbling fool. He played to the crowd though so what Mccain did that day was very smart politically. Again I just found it funny you would use the word articulate to describe the performance. Sorry if I offended you.

It didn't offend me, I'm just curious why to you tried to make a knee jerking attack, when you could have simply spelled it out for me.

In any case, I just hope McCain is preparing his game.  Obama looks like he has been coached non stop, and would be up for anything.  I'd have a smile on my face if McCain could put Obama on defense at any time in the debate.

I think I have to defend sbane on this correspondence.  While I disagree that McCain would be a continuation of Bush policies, he has a right to believe that.  I don't think it automatically makes you a Democratic hack if you strongly support a Democrat for the white house.  If you want to use that logic, I guess I am a Democratic hack for supporting Mary Landrieu for senate.
