And A Tie Makes Two

I scored last night’s debate a tie, but it seems the pundits and the majority of voters (including the fickle undecideds) scored it as a win for Obama. Some analysts say that because McCain did not clearly win, he lost. I call that a tie. But I will take a win any day.
One thing is for sure: Obama getting roughed up by Hillary Clinton in the primary debates has helped. He is more succinct; and he can land a jab.
McCain does not like Obama. He does not like the new guy. He does not like the young guy. McCain served his country valiantly, and he believes that the young, charismatic, untested Obama is ill-prepared. The problem is, McCain telegraphs his feelings to the American people during these debates. McCain does not respect Obama, and that comes off as un-presidential.
