I watched the presidential debate last night, or at least parts of it. I don't really know how this is going to sound, but McCain looked like a monster to me. He lurched around the stage and talked in that low raspy voice, moving around stiffly. It reminded me of Frankenstein. It was funny but also unbearable. I know this isn't a popularity contest or a beauty contest but McCain just doesn't have the look of a president. How can they expect us to rally around someone who looks like he could...die any moment. I know I'm being harsh but I'm being honest. He really looks bad to me. It wouldn't be so bad if he only had to stand behind a podium. At the same time, that is only his physical appearance. He doesn't have a commanding personality to me. That squeaky voice is annoying. To be honest with you, I just can't stand McCain's personality. All this time he has tried to demean Obama with slick insults and it continued last night with his "that one" quote. If you missed it, you can probably find it somewhere on the web because it causes a small uproar. McCain is going out of his way to say that Obama "doesn't understand" but at least he understands that running a negative campaign is not what people want to hear right now. We want answers. The whole time that debate was going on, McCain never laid out any specifics about this "change" that he wants to bring. It sounded like he spent the whole night talking about his heroes and his life. Somebody saying that their hero is Ronald Reagan is not a good thing. McCain is old so he probably doesn't remember how bad things were under Reagan. I'm not old enough to remember personally, but research shows how things really were under him. Reaganomics??? Is that really what we need? It's not Halloween yet. Maybe McCain was getting a jump on his costume with the way he looked last night. McCain being president scares me. There is no punch line there. Vote people!!!!
