No Chains on Me…

The debate tonight was not overwhelmingly successful for either candidate. I did feel that Obama made a much better showing than McCain did though. To those who say Obama only works through a teleprompter, I think he was excellent this evening running free-style Regardless of my stand on politics, Obama holds almost every position that I would align with on the topics that were spoken on tonight, so well done to him on his responses and defense.

More about Palin, more serious this time, is the recent interviews with CBS’s Katie Couric and ABC’s Charles Gibson are pretty frightening when thinking about how close this woman will be to running this country if McCain, in all likelihood, does not complete his full term. I agree, some of these interviews are very direct, but I feel as though the woman running as the country’s number two should be able to handle it or at least come up with competent, even coherent answers. Jack Cafferty voices the concerns well on CNN. All I can say, if she doesn’t completely tank McCain’s campaign run, it’ll be a miracle. So much for the wonder-woman, “national love affair.”
