Senator McCain’s contempt for Senator Obama’s very presence on this election’s stage with him is clearly boiling over.
McCain refuses to shake Obama’s hand
This is a man that hates losing. The lower he drops in the polls the more you’ll see this.
Overall I was disappointed in the debate. I didn’t think the modified “town hall” format worked. I would like to see a face-to-face debate with free-form discussion between the candidates. Enough with the ads, and enough with the debate formats that are really just modifications of the same, tired format that is really more like a joint press conference than a debate. Let’s have an in-the-open public discussion of these important issues with lots of time for responding to everything.
I will say I thought Obama performed well while McCain came off as an annoyed, grumpy old man yelling at Obama to get off his lawn. I don’t think either candidate necessarily “won” but Obama looked more comfortable.
Also, I was seriously creeped out by Senator McCain’s repeated use of the word “goodies”
