Last night's debate was nowhere near the showing that John McCain needed. I understand where you are coming from, but I wonder if our country wouldn't…
Obama's best moment might have come when he shut down McCain's claim that McCain is a follower of Teddy Roosevelt's principle of "talk softly and carry a big stick." A lot of serious noise has come from that hot Irishman, and Obama reminded the audience of it convincingly.

McCain is wandering all around the area like a kid lost at the zoo. Yes, my friends, we're going to have to sit down at a table and put party politics aside. Asked to prioritize, McCain refused. Asked for…
You would understand that only those law students whose academic performance was superlative would even be considered to head up the Harvard Law Review, even if RR doesn't seem to get it.
