I Thought Republicans Were For Personal Responsibility
- 10.08.2008 - 8:51 AMThere is apparently quite a bit of grousing from the McCain camp which declared that the debate last night was “the worst-moderated debate in the history of presidential debates.” Puleez. Was it dull and plodding ? Yes? The worst? Perhaps, but whose fault is that?
Barack Obama wants the debates to be dull — every moment of dullness and non-news is another step closer to victory. It’s up to McCain to generate the excitement. But what did he do? John McCain can’t bring himself to put together more than a sentence on the connection between Barack Obama and the Freddie/Fannie mess. He refuses to talk about Obama’s connections to radicals and his continued dissembling about the same. In lieu of a bold growth oriented new economic plan, he comes up with a mortgage buy-athon by the federal government. So when you’re looking for “worst” I’d suggest: Worst Ninety Minutes of Missed Opportunities In A Presidential Debate. Ever.
