What to do next--Obama should debate mccane to expose his ignorance
The recent ads, the lies about Obama causing the high gas prices, the lies about the surge vs. the awakening, The lies about you name it, there are too many to list, would be put to rest in a debate. I think Obama's cool intelligent understanding would shoot mcane out of the water.

1. I agree, Obama should call him out.
Set a date about ten days off or so.

McCain will resist it.

Call him on the resistance.

Make him squirm.

I want to see him cry.

2. It would be like taking candy from a baby
McCain wouldn't be able to maintain his composure and would go bonkers in front of the world...
:rofl:

6. That's what I'm thinkin'
A few debates would be good right now to expose the simmering hothead for what he is.

8. The debates will be McCain's undoing
there is no way I can see that he can go toe-to-toe against Obama in a debate, unless the media moderators help him by crafting the debate questions in his favor.

9. the debates will be like a Roman colleseum attraction
Obama will knock the old McFlocker off his balance right off the hop. He will veer and stumble, and fall, with little birdies flying around his head.


and we'll be up there in the stands with our thumbs all down.

it will seem a bit cruel at first, but oh so satisfying.

10. What happened to the Town Meetings McLame proposed?
Edited on Thu Jul-31-08 08:58 PM by madeline_con
Let's get on it. That's the only way a crowd will show up where McLame is located. He could use the publicity.

11. Eagles Don't Fly With Turkeys
Why has Gramps wanted "town hall debates"? Cause he's losing
Why is Gramps going negative so early? Cause he's losing
Why is Gramps trying to make the election about Obama? Cause he's losing.

Just let Gramps keep digging and shooting his wad...no need to help him out.
