John McCain faces the same challenge in the final presidential debate tonight as in the first two encounters: Barack Obama’s discipline.

ADVERTISEMENT

After 23 primary and general election debates and hundreds of town hall meetings, Obama appears to have mastered the art of moving coolly from one question to the next, falling back as often on talking points as precise answers. And that, in turn, has frustrated McCain’s bid to turn the past two debates into momentum-shifting events:

“Obama is like having a media consultant on the stage,” GOP media consultant John Brabender said. “He’ll answer it better than most media consultants sitting there from the sidelines could even think about answering it.”

Faced with perhaps his last major opportunity to shake up the race, McCain needs to find a way to unnerve Obama, strategists say. He could coax out the prickly side of the Illinois Democrat’s personality, the one that surfaced in New Hampshire when he told Hillary Rodham Clinton that she was “likable enough.”

Or maybe the moderator does McCain’s work for him, asking the kind of character-based questions that rattled Obama in the last debate before the Pennsylvania primary election. Some strategists say McCain should consider making a narrative-upending announcement, such as a one-term pledge, or ignore the debate format and lob questions at Obama.

Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is.

obama is a great speaker and debater.....mccain is a great chopf##k

Peace to All creatures great and small............................................

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

Yeah... well guess what? That strategy did not work for McCain. If anything did anyone catch HIM almost burst a couple of times?

Wishing you ten-fold that which you wish upon all others.
