Watching the Debate!

McCain just mispronounced Ahmedinejad's name. Not that it is super important and that he's incompetent because of it, but I just thought it was funny. Nobody can really pronounce his name anyways.

I'm liking the debate. Obama is having a pretty good showing. He's correcting McCain when he's "distorting" facts, and he's holding his own in an area where McCain has more experience. They spoke on the bailout, and tax issues and I thought that Obama won out on that one. McCain is using a lot of ethos for the war in Iraq.

*Disclaimer* I am an Obama supporter.

McCain is doing a very good job at keeping Obama on his toes. His rhetoric is pretty tricky when he's describing Obama's plans. Which is good for his side, and Obama is having a hard time fixing the misconceptions McCain is bringing up because McCain is putting a lot of the distortions at the very end of the subject, when the moderator is trying to change the subject.

In other news, I'm not sure if I said this, but I'm deputized now! I can register voters now. Total number of registered voters = 0. Sadness. But I got some friends who need to register, so onward ho!

I had a conversation on the electoral college with my roommate. I wrote a research paper on it last semester, so I think my plan is pretty solid. Oh well, back to watching the debate!
