Of Debates and Men

Watching the first presidential debate last week reminded me how little faith politicians have in the American people. Although most pundits and polls are giving Senator Obama the nod as the winner, I thought Senator McCain won the debate because he was more effective on the foreign affairs section which was a full 2/3 of the event.

In future debates, Senator Obama must do a better job at simply stating the obvious: "Senator McCain you frankly lack the good judgement to lead this nation evidenced by your continued support of a war of choice -- and you obviously don't have a command of the complexities of our modern economy to fix it." The American people, and this blogger want firmer, straighter talk from Senator Barack Obama.
