Wasn’t it Barack Obama who said that he would debate McCain “anytime,” and “anywhere?” Perhaps this was “inartful” of him to say [Note: There is no such word as 'inartful' in any American English dictionary.] Or, perhaps Obama will soon “refine” his comments to include the fact that what he meant was that he, Obama, would pick the dates and the times.

No wonder Hillary Clinton is waiting on the wing. Obama’s actions over the last several months have set a new standard for “weak.” Truth is, Obama knows the military does not like him; no secret here — no love lost. But worse, the debate could focus on the Iraq withdrawal without a win for the U.S., or military cuts after a withdrawal — with most of the military watching. Scary version: Obama might be asked about his position and record on third-trimester abortions, or any of several of his extreme, left-wing positions.

Barack Obama is already suffering from retrograde donations and reduced campaign contributions. Many of his “progressive” followers are rejecting Obama’s “swing” toward conservatives by putting their contributions into a special fund and threatening to withhold said funds if Mr. Obama does not walk himself back to the “wild side” — the radical extremists’ cave.

If enough people see Obama stammering without que cards on a national debate — watch out! He may implode in real time. Obama is already suffering from negative acceleration in many nationwide polls.

It must be remembered at all times: Whereas Obama is a naive, simpleton beginner; John McCain is the experience, respected, and honorable candidate.

Can you believe anything that Obama has said. He said he would meet McCain any time anywhere. But balks. He said he was for total wihdrawal of troops, then said no he wasn’t.

The Dems picked a real winner there. Geez and I thought McCain is in trouble. Everyone is getting off of Obama’s bus, or thrown under the bus

Is anybody honestly suggesting there won’t be Presidential debates? If not, then all you’re doing is blowing hot air and having an ODS party. Wait for the debates.

Run Obama run! just remember there aren’t too many hiding places left for you. Prior commitments my rear end, your a phony and an empty suit, whose strings are being pulled by the usual bunch of Socialist and out right America haters. there is no difference between Obama and Kerry, or Gore.

He’s not going to debate McCain. He will put it off pleading prior committments until the election. The media will cover for him and suppress all this. The public will never realize this guy is incompetent. They hear his reading from a teleprompter and think he is super smart when the truth is he is nothing without a speechwriter and a teleprompter. Without them he is lost as has been shown in his ad libs. A debate would show that is is a know-nothing so he won’t risk it. This guy is a joke the way he changes his mind from day to day about not just one issue but all of them.

ash,

Trenchant comment. But sometimes faux indignation is all you’ve got when not only the rest of the country is not particularly excited about your candidate, even you aren’t. Let’s all stop talking smack and wait for the game.

This is not even a debate tho, it’s a small faction’s Q and A. I don’t see what the fuss is about.

What is silly is that they will both do actual debates closer to the election making this faux indignation mute.

Ditto to what the Dittman said. And make sure to leave an empty chair on the stage where the empty suit would have been sitting.

Obama doesn’t give a rat’s ass about veterans or the military.
