While the pundants of Washington dished Senator McCain's performance in the 2nd debate, while ABC (America's oBama Channel) and CNN instant polls say that Obama won the debate, I watched the debate and came away with a different perspective.
We are talking about a presidential election. McCain was honest and forthright. He was confident and ready to lead with a life-experience of leading behind him and a rocking reformer by his side. His wife has class that will add a dimension to the White House we expect in the role of the First Lade. Could you imagine the America-hating wife of Obama as the First Lady?
On style, Obama is stronger as a commanding stature. He is a good debater but he is lies to the American people When the problem was "deregulation" he shifted the blame to Bush instead of admitting that he was the recipient of major donations over the past few years he was in the Senate. He told of how he came up from a single-parent who was on food-stamps but was able to go to the best schools.
He didn't tell you that it was money from and the help of William Ayers, the unrepentent terrorist, that paid for his School. His justification of the massive 800 Billion spending plan is laughable when you compare it with current spending (not including the War) His tax plan would actually add tax on the small businessman. As one of those small business owners, I know first hand what a threat of a tax on small business will mean. There will be no new jobs. I may have to give up my insurance. The threat of mandates and penalties if I can't comply then threatens my ability to continue business. His promise to line by line end every program that doesn't work means the end of abstinence programs and pregnancy help centers because pro-abortion Obama will not support these fine centers and programs.
On substance and readiness to lead this country out of these tough times, McCain was the stronger. When it comes down to who I can trust, McCain won hands down.
Thus, if I measure style vs substance, I applaud McCain for standing strong and showing himself confident.
From where I see it, McCain won the second debate, for sure.
