Presidential Debate #1 Game Thread

That last little bit from Obama was pretty good.

nvm

 

[GAVol]

nvm

You were right before the edit. This format is awful. It's like they are in a conversation without speaking to each other as they give stump speeches.

 

[vol4eva]

Obama is finally stepping it up.

 

[notverycrucial]

I'm a few minutes behind on TiVo but McCain has already used his Miss Congeniality line twice. No one laughed the first time.

OK. Wasn't sure if I was the only one seeing it that way.

I am not a big fan either. It is very unorganized. I think we would be better served having them fight a cage match. That being said, it is catered towards the lowest common denominator.

 

[emainvol]

Finally! It's about time they started talking UT football

 

[allvol123]

People are worried about the economy.

McCain did not stick these points hard enough:

Nothing is off the table in terms of energy.
If you consume anything, higher corporate taxes will hurt you.

 

[notverycrucial]

The giant eagle is freaking me out. btw, John McCain is blinking like a mofo. Never blink!

 

[allvol123]

McCain looking strong on this area.

 

[vol4eva]

Good grief McCain sounds nervous.

 

[allvol123]

What is Pah-kee-stahn?

 

[notverycrucial]

He ain't nervous. He's old.

 

[emainvol]

What is Pah-kee-stahn?

I think that is how you pronounce it, but I could be wrong.

 

[allvol123]

Same with tally-ban?

 

[GAVol]

I think that is how you pronounce it, but I could be wrong.

I'm going down to the 7-11 and ask. I'll be right back.

 

[emainvol]

Same with tally-ban?

I think it is actually toli-bahn

but my understanding of pronunciation in that region isn't all that either

 

[allvol123]

:birgits_giggle:

 

[vol4eva]

Oh, don't forget about those flag pins folks. Obama is wearing one and McCain is not.

 

[emainvol]

+1

LMAO!!! lol:

 

[GAVol]

Now we've got dueling bracelets.

 

[volmanbill]

Interesting that Obama keeps calling McCain by his (and somebody else's) first name. McCain on the other hand is sticking with "Senator".

 

[VolDad]

Oh, don't forget about those flag pins folks. Obama is wearing one and McCain is not.

But McCain’s Tie is red and white stripes and his jacket is blue. That trumps a pin.
