The Debates
Has anybody thought how old Obama is going to make McCane look when they debate and how huge the height difference is ?

McCain must be 5'5'' and Obama 6'2''

Obama will certainly come off as the vigorous one...

I think Obama should do to McCane what Clinton did to Dole when they met for the traditional handshake... Clinton would pull him in closer to emphasize the size difference...

Aesthetics matter...

4. Bush* Would Rub It But McCane Stil Has Some Hair
I watched most of the GOP debates...He's not a particularly good debater...Romney always "ate his lunch"...

2. oh yeah.......
And he will DEFINATELY do the left shoulder grab ...... his trademark move .... cannot wait.

If I'm not mistaken, he's already hugged him ...... at that Faith Conference thingy. And there will likely be some kind of hug-related gesture on Thursday at Ground Zero.

Hugs, hugs hugs, the world is a better place with Obama hugs and shoulder grabs. ..... and baby snuggles. :)

Won't that Mahmoud Abbas, Ehud Olmert, Obama GROUP hug/dap/chest bump be a thing to behold next year? Lol .... it will be better than the Carter/Sadat/Begin handshake.

3. Exactly what they did to Kerry in 2004.
They'll position the shots of McCain slightly raised so that they'll appear at the same height.

5. Bush Is 5'11'' 6'00''
McCane is 5'5''

There's a difference between a relatively tall man and a tall man standing next to one another and a tall man standing next to a short man...
