Sure show me how much smarter you are then Senator Obama?

Should be a simple question to answer right?

Why do you think he made the mistake of mentioning 57 states? What was he confusing things with?

I see you may be one of Obama's blinded voters. :D At any rate, I know how many states we have in the Union. I'm already one up on him. :rock:I even think Mr. Bush has that one covered.

And BTW, it's smarter "than" Obama.... not "then". ;) Just letting you know.

Since Senator Obama was talking about the Primaries, did you know there are 57 primary elections/caucuses for the Democratic Party?

So Senator Obama made a simple mistake of using the word state when he should have said primaries. He meant to talk about the 57 primaries but mistakenly used the word states instead.

You do know what the 57 Democratic primaries are don't you? :know:

HAHAHA. Please spare me. So he doesn't know the difference between a state and a primary? That's his problem. I'm not so sure I buy your explanation to his confusion here.

Platapus 09-27-08 08:39 PM
well the point I was trying to make was that it was a simple mistake, not indicative of any lack of knowledge.

The way Obama used it in the sentence makes me think he really is confused about how many states we actually have versus what he thinks about primaries. You don't visit primaries. You visit states, counties, and voting districts, but not primaries.

I know Obama made a another statement on the biased ABC news during an interview by stating people question his Islamic faith... and only to be helped by the interviewer in quickly saying Christian faith. It is seriously bad when the media helped groom this man. Maybe it is the 57 states of Islam? Maybe the media and everyone has gone nuts. I betting on the media and everyone going nuts :doh: Whatever the case...we be screwed. :dead: Bail out anyone?

Thank God for Barrack Obama. A real change, change we can believe in. :up:
So, instead of discussing the debate with everybody else, you choose to post a campaign ad.

Please explain the "change we can believe in". Ethnicity aside, he looks like more of the same to me.

McCain's voice cracked a couple of times, but I think he did well to keep pounding on the subject that Obama is not ready to take the helm of a country this big.

Obama will become a better senator after this election so he can have a better chance in 2012 with at least four more years of experience he should do much better (not just in the polls, but in the actual race), but so will Mrs Clinton all the while saying, "Obama should've chose me for a running mate"
Um what?

Bush was ahead going into the debates, Was ahead coming out of them, and was ahead on election day.

Nuff said..

It is about the undecided voter and in most polls they went towards Obama.

Also if there was a blowout, Even dems would be admitting he blew it. McCain BADLY needed a blowout to gain steam now he faces debates that Obama has an advantage.

A tie is a loss for the one behind.. Period

McCain has been a senator for 20 years, he actually knows how to do these things. He knows what he is talking about. Obama is one of the most inexperienced, junior senators, a scant 2 years of experience. He is a good speaker under the right conditions. But he's way behind McCain in knowledge and savvy.
I agree that he was not the best he could have been yesterday.

He missed 5 chances (That I can count) to totally strike back at McCain's points. 2 of them being Obvious!

Both basically gave their stump speeches with a bit of idiocy between the speeches. This is not what McCain needed.

As for the "Obama Inexperienced! RUN!!!!111!" stuff.. Well that has nothing to do with debate performance in my view.

It's comments like these that will help insure that the majority of young voters never go Republican again.

Thanks! :up:
