Debate Notes

-McCain:"We can attack health care and the economy at the same time." Yeah, but we can't handle the economy and a debate at theh same time?

-McCain: "Obama's tax proposals are like nailing Jell-O to a wall. There's been so many versions of them, you don't know what they are anymore."

That is an awful joke. I can't even guess the logic he was going for. That's the equivalent of, Yo' mama so tall, she can't read.

-McCain just said fixing Social Security is easy. "We just need to sit down at a table." Medicare is just as easy. We need to "bring people together to come up with solutions."

The specificity is almost boring.

-McCain was wandering around the stage, aimlessly, as Obama was talking. Was he lost? What the hell was going on there?

-In the context of Iran attacking Israel, McCain suggested we spurn the UN and form a "league of democracies." What? Does he not know what the UN is? I realize the Russia-China issue there. What about NATO. He was trying to come up with a new idea when the standards in place are sufficient.
