Watching the debate this Friday, I thought McCain appeared to be condescending and sort-of miffed. If this is the time to put off rivalries and partisan-ship, he sure didn’t do as he said. He wouldn’t look at Obama, and kept addressing him in the third person. Not only is that condescending, it’s plain rude and very discourteous. It also made him (McCain) appear miffed and afraid.

And Obama was very classy. He looked directly at McCain, addressed him as John. And appeared very Presidential, even crediting McCain when he felt credit was due. Obama does look like a genuinely nice person, not one who’s putting up a show for the media, and then reverts back to his rude self, when faced with an opponent. His classiness was apparent right from the time when he told the media to lay off Palin’s pregnant teen, saying families were off-limits. I can’t imagine McCain or Palin being that gracious had it been Obama’s daughter who had been pregnant.

And now for some humor – watch Tina Fey out-Palin Palin (am sure you’ll have seen this a 100 times already, but can’t help it – Fey is that good) :
