Drat.
John McCain has truculently agreed to make himself available for tonight’s debate. (I guess that economic crisis that required all of his attention has now been resolved.) I’m saddened by this. I was looking forward not only to the spectacle of Barack Obama debating an empty chair (good practice for a re-election debate against Sarah Palin), but also to the clever uses of that footage all over the internet.
I wonder if this means McCain is also resuming his campaign. If he’d like to shelve it until December, I suspect that would be fine with many of us.

It was discouraging: first Obama’s refusal to talk tough (I guess someone told him not to look like an angry black man) then McCain’s ability to lie staight-faced while I cried. Still I look to find a reason to believe….

But at least Obama called McCain on lots of those lies. He kept saying things like, “John, you know that’s not true” or “John, you know that’s not what I said”.
With his unselfish attitude, I sometimes feel Obama makes it easy to live, never thinking of myself.
