6. Richardson gets no respect--instead of VP, Barack will share his cold.....
Don't mind me, I'm getting cranky and pissy thinking it'll be Biden.

12. Thank goodness Barack did not start out by saying what a hero McCain is before
pointing out McCain's bs.

13. Obama is coming back swinging! Calls him "Mr. McCain" for the first time I know. Attacks his
"Country FIrst" slogan for sucking up to bush. References Graham's "nation of whiners" quote. Speaking with a stronger voice than he has in quite awhile, even with a cold.

One thing about Barack, he's very good at taking constructive criticism and making adjustments.

15. And he said McCain considers "the rich" people making $5 million...
this morning he said Mcain might have been joking, but this time he didn't use that part, which I'm happy about, since McCain has taken so many quotes from Obama out of context.

14. Biden not the VP? Obama referred to credit card companies being able to jack up interest rates,
using their influence in Congress. If Obama has chosen Biden, why would he add this remark when Biden is so closely associated with the bankruptcy bill?

21. I thought of Biden too as he's one who greased the skids for the lenders...
Yet more proof that Biden will contradict some of Obama's economic message...

19. Obama is coming back hard on a questioner who attacked him
about FISA, and for wanting to put troops in Afghanistan. She says he is flip-flopping and compromising by promising to put troops in AFG.

20. That was great how he dealt with her. He said she's
feisty and he likes that, but she's wrong.

27. Obama-"We're all Americans." McCain-"We're all Georgians."
I think that should be used in a contrast ad.

26. Did he take a couple shots before this?
Whatever it is, it seems to work. A bit more belligerent even if he slurs his words slightly. :evilgrin:

28. He has a cold. And he also probably heard about McCain's latest smears about him today
to veterans.

30. This was a great event! Plus I got a nice screen cap of him wiping his nose.
He should throw his hankie out into the screaming audience like Elvis now.
