Love The Split Screen On MSNBC Obama/McCain



....... On the left we have a President who is speaking truth and compassion from the heart and on the right John McCain MUTED looking like a angry raging lunatic, still acting pissed off that he is not living at 1600 Penn Ave Washington DC.

It was a fascinating contrast. Obama had the lion's share of the screen and the audio. He was coming across as the reasonable, funny, and relaxed man that we know him to be in front of crowds that were clearly enjoying the event.. McCain was walking around waving his hands, pretty much looking angry as he spoke to a small group of Romney supporters - he was there endorsing Romney. At one point, it looked like Obama was reaching over to pat McCain on the back, as if to console him over his anger issues. Great contrast in styles between the two men.

I just saw a clip...McCain looked nuts! Could you imagine having someone that has his [McCain] anger issues in the WH.
