Here is my deep post-debate analysis:
Anyone who votes Republican in 2008 needs their head examined. Seriously, Obama and Clinton are so head and shoulders above the GOP field, the Dems should walk away with it. Unfortunately, I can still see McCain winning it all.
Having said that, I score the debate for Obama. One of the things I like about him is that when asked a question, there isn’t an instant response spit out. He pauses, he starts to respond, and you can tell he is thinking, and not merely reciting. The highlight for the night was when he called the bullshit fearmongering about immigration what it is- scapegoating. That was refreshingly honest.
There are so few issues that the two differ, but when they do, I tend to agree with Obama. Additionally, he was right about the Iraq war, and it drives me insane that Hillary simply can not admit she was wrong. well, actually, pretty much everything about Hillary drives me insane, although I try to keep that under control.
The most devastating question of the night came from the voter who had never been able to vote in an election without a Bush or a Clinton on the ticker (same for me, too). It is time for some new blood.
