He's going to get it anyway. Why waste the moment when he could have scheduled a bigger crowd tomorrow and dominated tomorrow's news cycle as opposed to falling behind the others tonight? It was a bad move.
More than just the fact he did it, was the way he did it. It was miniture, watch Obama's SPEECH here and notice how much more energetic it will be.
It was a poor attempt from McCain in my opinion.
My bad, you're not supporting Obama? You were so excited by how he delivered his speech I was certain that would make you one of his.
I have not made a decision on who I am voting for, and for you to assume that I am stupid enough to vote for someone because they can stand and read a speech because I don't fawn over "your guy" is a slap in the face of anyone like me, that isn't a lemming to any one party.
