Game Changer?

"Vouching" for Obama
McCain campaign is exploiting the issue raised in the media and in the blogs - Hilarry didn't personally "vouch" for Obama in her speech and she didn't explicitly say that he is ready to be CiC.I suggest that liberal blogs...more »

Why, you think Biden is ALSO not qualified to run a major company?

Pretty good for Obama considering he was 2.7 behind in RCP Average last week.

Well, at least Biden is qualified to run Bank of America, so not all is lost.

Key question for strategy: are these independents chosing a candidate "who tells less lies" or a candidate who shows whatever qualities they look for in a president?

Personally, I think his biography and his record and the choice of Palin helps him a great deal - again, if we agree that the target is independents and fence-sitters.
But it's no secret that McCain has no choice but to rely on the "elderly" fireside-chat style of delivery - he can't fire up the crowd like Obama. That's why he wanted so desperately to do these townhalls.
