If Barack can survive this........
Edited on Sun Sep-21-08 01:14 AM by Clio the Leo
Part of my "watch old debates in anticpation of what to come" refresher course. John McCain is a capable debator, I have no doubt of that. But thankfully for Barack, next week there will be only ONE of him.

Here's a clip of Obama fending off "attacks" from BOTH Hillary AND John Edwards, two even BETTER debators (than McCain) ........ at the SAME TIME!

South Carolina debate (partial)

Let's see now ..... how DID that Democratic primary turn out? Anyone remember who won? :)

1. I think he did good during the debates, better than some say.

3. Only concern trolls and former supporters of other candidates say he did poorly
I supported Edwards till he dropped out, but I always thought that Obama did very well in the debates.

2. That South Carolina debate gave me a headache
Hillary and Obama were both acting like little children.

4. yes. I had taped some of the debates, and I was watching them
earlier today.

What will be interesting is that Barack doesn't have to use kid gloves anymore...in terms of dealing with a member of his own party...and with a woman (as a Black man). So it will be interesting to see.

McCain likes to crack jokes. That's his forte.

Should be interesting.
