I can't get past "That One" !!!
I had to take a walk to calm down and cool off. I missed a lot of the debate.

24. I was not sure if racial or not
I took it as a de-humanizing statement, with definate racial overtones, much like "boy".

4. It wasn't just him saying it either.
He sneered and angrily pointed at Obama sitting off to his side at the same time. McCain will be haunted by that moment.

6. It was racist, mean spirited and probably turned undecideds off.
McCain looked angry and negative.

Obama looked smart and on the ball.

In short, Obama looked Presidential and focused on substance. McCain looked childish and negative.

16. Is what made McCain fail IMO
I try not to let my bias get in the way too much, but added to the totally wandering around lost performance, I think epic fail for McSame.

7. People can't change who they are.
McCain is a nasty person. He has been a nasty person is whole life. He really is a lot like Dick Cheney. The American people are weary. They want to see and hear someone who uplifts them. That is really it.
