This is his excuse to explain his horrible speech the other night. The media pretend it is true. Just like they always do.

1. So, Obama should hold a couple of own Halls to show who

is "Town Hall Stronger." Oh, and by the way, Obama's Town Halls should include lots of people of all ages including young, energetic people.

2. i think this is good.....

it sets high expectations for McDouchebag. it sets the bar too high for him to ever reach.

let's face it, obama kicks McDildo's ass in any setting.

so, let the people think that McDiaperChange is a stud in the townhall and then we'll see what they think when they see that misshapen noggin on a hunchbacked stick waddling around like a retarded duck and stammering and stuttering. they'll see obama, smooth as silk, strutting around kicking the living crap out of McCorpse.

So set the bar as high as they want for McBoredom and see how that works out for them.

5. I thought exactly the same thing

Let everyone set the bar high for him. And let him look old, feeble, and confused next to Sen Obama. It works for me.

7. great minds think alike

15. This is some cold s**t, man!

"we'll see what they think when they see that misshapen noggin on a hunchbacked stick waddling around like a retarded duck and stammering and stuttering"

I laughed and cringed

3. That's not saying much...."..at his best". That's about 7% of Obama's worst.

Don't know where they get this crap from?! He can tell lies and bullshit to a small crowd, and pray that he won't be challenged. In a large audience, he can't lie quite as easy.

This is all bullshit. Is it that Obama clams up at a town hall? He can't communicate on a one to one? Have they ever seen Obama being interviewed, one on one? The guy is a golden glove compared to this old pile of elephant crap.

4. McCain townhalls are better than his speeches, but they're still subpar

I also don't know where this 'McCain is great in town halls' talking point came from.

[redstorm20]

6. Why?

why does McCain want to be on the same platform as Obama at all?... he should do as little debating as possible because every moment you see the two together you are going to see the young, energenic Obama and the one foot in the grave, magoo-ish McCain.

Not a wise decision

[Gato Moteado]

8. you nailed it redstorm!

we should start calling him McGoo

[mcjackson]

10. Did McOld have...

...a stroke recently? the left side of his face looks a little wonky lately......

[Ned_Devine]

16. Perfect...Missah Magloo and his blind dog McBarker (Lieberman)

[frog92969]

17. On it!

Perfect analogy, he doesn't see what he's walking into.

9. why does McCain want to be on the same platform as Obama at all?...

Rachael's Maddows' answer to the same question on KO last was that it was because he (McCain) wanted to speak in front of a large crowd.
I rolled :rofl:

[Muttocracy]

11. yep, she was totally right on that one - he'll take credit for his attendees! nt

[stlsaxman]

13. McCain will talk "townhall" for the next couple weeks and then after a few months

with none having happened he'll call Obama scared to debate.

[DirtyDawg]

12. I've made the observation earlier...

...that the only reason I can imagine that McLame would call for these 'early' sessions is that the Repug party has decided that he can't beat Obama so unless he can show that he can compete, they'll dump him before the Convention in September...OR, that he believes the public will grow so tired of watching Obama clean his clock that they'll actually consider voting for him out of sympathy.

I've also proposed that Obama should accept the 'three-month early' meetings on the condition that they cancel the conventions, move the election date up to September and the Inauguration up to October 20.

[frog92969]

14. I don't see much chance of McGoo being on the ballot in Nov.

Unless the GOP have already thrown in the towel.
Maybe they'll try to catch us off guard with a last minute switcheroo, but there's nobody out there who can push the rw crap and look competent next to Obama. IMO

[polmaven]

18. That isn't media.

That's Faux! Not even respectable enough to be called "media"...Sad, really sad!

[AlbertCat]

19. Pu-leez!

Great! McCain is great at town hall meetings. Then elect him dog catcher, or town crier or something. But if he's president, is he gonna have town hall meetings with world leaders? Do we need another president who cannot read and speak? Should the "leader of the free world" fall apart and become inarticulate at a world wide event? Hello John! This is bigger than a "town hall".

What a bunch of bunk.

McCain for dog catcher!!!!!
