Notes on 3rd Presidential Debate--10/15/08

This was by far the best nationally televised debate so far during this campaign. McCain and Obama 'mixed it up' and went after each other on various issues, making for an interesting exchange.

But let's get right down to the main point.

John McCain won on the issues.

Barack Obama won on style.

But a silvery-tongued liar is still a liar, and a smooth style often is nothing more than a cover for a person's real self, which is often hidden by a very well-crafted outward persona.

Thus, if we are electing a silvery-tongued orator who can let lies slide from his lips as smoothly as water glides off of a duck's back, then Obama is your man.

But if you want a President, a leader, a reformer, and a man who values the sanctity of human life and always puts his country first, then McCain is your choice.

And yes, it really is that simple.
