McCain interacted with Obama as if he were a Vietnamese Prison Guard

The total lack of interaction.

The inability to engage in any common understanding. Obama went to the "I agree with John" well to often but unintentionally it will become the main issue of the debate.


McCain treated Obama like an object - not looking at him no friendly little jokes at Obama expense.

Reagan did great damage to Mondale by his funny little "I won't hold his young age against him"


McCain was angry and bitter and was facing up to Obama as if he held the keys to his cell, and in a way he does.

1. You know that was my impression too
but I didn't want to raise it, because it seems like that's such a badge of honor for him and I'm tired of it being used for everything.

If his present moment life experience in the clutch makes him return on an emotional level to those bad old days, how would he deal with the perils of presidency?

He's a hardened shell and the inner self has withered away to dust.
