Hmm, remember those flag pins... Obama is wearing one; McCain is not.

True but McCain has on red and white stripes (tie) with his blue suit. I thought Obama's suit was black but now I see it's just a darker shade of blue than McCain's. Obama said he would wear the pin so people would stop stressing over it.

Is it just me or is McCain not answering ANYTHING with substantial, identifying insight on where he is headed "IF" he were to become president? He has spent more time tooting his own horn and talking about the past. I also notice that he does not deny any of the things that Obama claims he is for as far as the tax cuts for oil companies and no sensical response to the $79 billion dollar surplass in Iraq while we are sinking??!!!
Is it just me, or is he saying absolutely nothing to suggest that he is flexible, aware, and capable of doing anything differently than it has been for the last 8 years?

McCain is showing how he is nothing more than a moving billboard. Sooner or later he will actually have to answer a question. I just hope it's before January.

Why are we arguing over who is wearing what, that's not what is important today. I honestly feel as if Obama has been interupting and being so rude to McCain, I don't want a President that feels he needs to be rude to make a point.
