Obama's resonses were thoughtful and substantive, but not crisp. Most of the time he never quite drove his point home. McCain's responses, on the other hand, were clear and concise.

I have a lot of respect for Pastor Warren. He's a good and reasonable guy. but Saddleback Church is an evangelical church in the middle of one of the reddest areas in CA. A red area in CA may sound like an oxymoron, but it's true. in 2006 our district (CA-42) had the distinction of having the only Republican representative in the state (Garry Miller) to run unopposed. Obama's first appearance at Saddleback Church (for an AIDS forum back in 2006) sparked quite a controversy, because many of his parishioners thought Pastor Warren went beyond the pale to invite him. <br><br>The present visit didn't generate that kind of controversy, but it wasn't exactly Obama's type of crowd, either. I thought one of the most telling moments was when Warren asked McCain  to name something he changed his opinion on in the last 10 years. He said, \"off-shore drilling\". The crown went nuts. It was one of his biggest applause lines. Generally speaking most folks here in CA -- even here in OC -- though willing to consider the idea, are also concerned about the consequences. We have some very nice beaches around here, and they're very important to the local economy. So when the crowd cheered like they did I thought it was very indicative of their mind-set. <br><br>With that kind of crowd Obama could not rely on his typical talking points.

I see your note that it isn't finished yet so I'll be keeping an eye on it for more.<br><br>Obama won the forum hands down.  But I know that McCain connected better with the audience and his answers, some of which were directly to the point will resonate with many Americans and more voters will prefer McCain.<br><br>To me the forum sums up the two candidates perfectly.  The best way to sum up the two men is to think of them if they were doctors.<br><br>Let's say you, as a patient, went to McCain the doctor because you had been experiencing really bad headaches.  You said, \"Doctor, I have a headache.\"  McCain would say, \"Take two aspirin.  Trust me, my friend aspirin works.  I've been doing this for forty years and know from my experience in Vietnam that aspirin will work.\"  <br><br>If you go to Obama and tell him, \"Doctor, I have a headache.\"  Obama would probe to find out more.  Obama might ask, \"Have you tried anything, are you experiencing dizziness, nausea or slurring of speech?\"  And other pertinent questions.  Obama might order more tests.  After the final diagnosis comes in, \"You have a tumor, but we were able to catch it in the early stages, so while there is no guarantee of a full recovery in these cases most folks make a full recovery.  It won't be easy, you'll have to undergo surgery and then we need to talk to the oncologist about chemotherapy.  Not all patients need it but we need to understand what's available to you and what will work best for your situation.\"<br><br>If we insist on having a good doctor for our health why would we expect any less than a good commander in chief and president who will be sending troops into harms way, who will be setting policies that affect the course of our country and each and everyone of us in so many ways in our daily lives?  We've seen what happens when a president makes a likable impression to get elected, but doesn't have the mental nimbleness to understand the issues at hand. <br><br>McCain's and Obama's answers last night also show their background and education.  McCain was trained as a soldier to take orders.  He also graduated at the bottom of his class at the Naval Academy- he was 894 out of 899.  He was almost kicked out of the Naval Academy and didn't much care to do the hard studying part, preferring to party instead (sound familiar?)<br><br>Obama graduated magna cum laude from Harvard in law.  His training is to probe deeper to understand issues and take other sides into consideration.  He taught US Constitutional law at the University of Chicago (I think it would be nice to actually have a president who understand the US Constitution, which the president takes an oath to defend).<br><br>So McCain's brief and simple answers, \"Take two aspirin, my friend, because I know from my experience they work,\" will win over a lot of voters.  Obama's answers clearly show that he understands that not all headaches will be cured by two aspirin.  <br><br>But the thought that goes into Obama's decision is not quick and easy, nor is it very appealing to many voters who just want to hear, \"Yes, I believe this.\" Or, \"No, I don't believe this.\"<br><br>So my support goes to the candidate who shows he has the education, training and mental ability to analyze and understand issues.  Obama clearly demonstrates this.  McCain has only demonstrated that he can connect with the audience, but McCain didn't give any insight into his thinking or how his beliefs would translate into policy. <br><br>I can understand why many voters like McCain, it's easy to like someone who agrees with you at the starting gate.  But once you sit down and probe a candidate (which I thought is what this forum was about) then you see differences and gain a better understanding about that candidate.

There is nothing of HRC's appalling triangulation -- as in her infamous immigrant driver's license answer (\"what should I say...what did the debating book say about this?\").  Instead, Obama seems like he is thinking about the questions.<br><br>I say this is very interesting, as I have been at several functions this summer where the same point has been made to me:  <br>\"\"Obama thinks too much to be president.  Voters prefer someone who knows what he thinks, rather than one who thinks\"\" (i.e. Reagan over Carter/Mondale). <br><br>Earlier this summer I was reading about JFK's incredible range of reading material - not just political wonk stuff, a la Clinton - but diverse reading in history, culture, literature etc.  He was probably the last intellectual president.  <br><br>Thus, ChrisWWW 's comment begs the question:  Do Americans, in a dumber and dumber age, want a President who actually thinks (and is dumb enough not to conceal this fact)?", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": false, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2008-08-17_16:41:45", "killed": false, "user_key": "Marlowecan", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": false, "votable": true, "date": "1 year ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 0, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "1582386": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": false, "message": "I think we can all agree that some presidents are more intelligent than others.  I believe McCain is closer to our current president in intellect, and not just because people are saying that McCain voted with Bush 95% of the time (which is a line I won't use because McCain's voting record is more than just aligning hiimself with Bush, though it is a large part of it).  Rather I believe that McCain is closer to Bush intellectually because he doesn't have any academic achievements (legacy student at the Naval Academy, finished almost last in his class of nearly 900, was nearly kicked out), nor a career in anything but politics.  (Bush did have a career in energy but it was not at all successful.)  The one real job McCain had, as VP in Public Relations for the beer distributorship was given to him by his father-in-law.<br><br>The forum proves McCain can talk the talk, but there was absolutely nothing new about McCain that showed up in the forum.  For instance he said his greatest moral failing was the failure of his first marriage.  I find it hard to believe that people are surprised that he said this.  I find it hard to believe because I consider his answer to be a cop-out.  Everyone knows he divorced his first wife and no one can dispute that.  And I don't take issue with this, if McCain thinks it's his biggest moral failure then so be it.  The complaint I have about McCain and the reason I believe his answer is a cop-out is that McCain didn't tell WHY he thought it was his greatest moral failure.  Does he believe that he should have stayed with her because he's against divorce but failed to live up to his own standard?  Did he divorce her out of vanity because she was disfigured?  Why did he consider the failure of his marriage to be a moral failure?  The forum was suppose to let us see deeper into the candidates' minds.  Nothing anywhere close to this came out of McCain's mind.<br><br>Obama, to contrast, spoke again of his experiments with drugs and drinking alcohol in his youth.  Just as I don't take issue with McCain's answer with his first marriage, I don't take issue with this by Obama.  The important difference between Obama and McCain is that Obama delved deeper and let us glimpse into his mind.  Obama went on to explain why he considered youthful drugs/alcohol to be his moral failure in terms of religion.  (He said he placed himself first, that he was self absorbed).  He went on to say what he learned from that and how it directed his life.  We got absolutely none of that reflection from McCain.  McCain could have been at a rally giving his positions.<br><br>So that's why I think McCain is more like Bush intellectually (and folks in 2000 had the same concerns about Bush).<br><br>I think McCain has used his maverick image to explain away some of his votes and actions.  He's like a little kid that parents put up with because they're used to it.  When McCain does something folks say, \"There goes McCain again.

So the 'moment' of conception is in fact a span of twenty-four to forty-eight hours.</blockquote>", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": false, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2008-08-18_14:29:20", "killed": false, "user_key": "ChrisWWW", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": false, "votable": true, "date": "1 year ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 0, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "1582460": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": false, "message": "I thought they were both outstanding and It made me want to totally trash the debates and go to this type of format.<br><br>Debates are so stupid.

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-1570085" class="dsq-comment-message">Joe, thanks for the excellent round-up.  I see your note that it isn\'t finished yet so I\'ll be keeping an eye on it for more.<br><br>Obama won the forum hands down.  But I know that McCain connected better with the audience and his answers, some of which were directly to the point will resonate with many Americans and more voters will prefer McCain.<br><br>To me the forum sums up the two candidates perfectly.  The best way to sum up the two men is to think of them if they were doctors.<br><br>Let\'s say you, as a patient, went to McCain the doctor because you had been experiencing really bad headaches.  You said, "Doctor, I have a headache."  McCain would say, "Take two aspirin.  Trust me, my friend aspirin works.  I\'ve been doing this for forty years and know from my experience in Vietnam that aspirin will work."  <br><br>If you go to Obama and tell him, "Doctor, I have a headache."  Obama would probe to find out more.  Obama might ask, "Have you tried anything, are you experiencing dizziness, nausea or slurring of speech?"  And other pertinent questions.  Obama might order more tests.  After the final diagnosis comes in, "You have a tumor, but we were able to catch it in the early stages, so while there is no guarantee of a full recovery in these cases most folks make a full recovery.  It won\'t be easy, you\'ll have to undergo surgery and then we need to talk to the oncologist about chemotherapy.  Not all patients need it but we need to understand what\'s available to you and what will work best for your situation."<br><br>If we insist on having a good doctor for our health why would we expect any less than a good commander in chief and president who will be sending troops into harms way, who will be setting policies that affect the course of our country and each and everyone of us in so many ways in our daily lives?  We\'ve seen what happens when a president makes a likable impression to get elected, but doesn\'t have the mental nimbleness to understand the issues at hand. <br><br>McCain\'s and Obama\'s answers last night also show their background and education.  McCain was trained as a soldier to take orders.  He also graduated at the bottom of his class at the Naval Academy- he was 894 out of 899.  He was almost kicked out of the Naval Academy and didn\'t much care to do the hard studying part, preferring to party instead (sound familiar?)<br><br>Obama graduated magna cum laude from Harvard in law.  His training is to probe deeper to understand issues and take other sides into consideration.  He taught US Constitutional law at the University of Chicago (I think it would be nice to actually have a president who understand the US Constitution, which the president takes an oath to defend).<br><br>So McCain\'s brief and simple answers, "Take two aspirin, my friend, because I know from my experience they work," will win over a lot of voters.  Obama\'s answers clearly show that he understands that not all headaches will be cured by two aspirin.  <br><br>But the thought that goes into Obama\'s decision is not quick and easy, nor is it very appealing to many voters who just want to hear, "Yes, I believe this." Or, "No, I don\'t believe this."<br><br>So my support goes to the candidate who shows he has the education, training and mental ability to analyze and understand issues.  Obama clearly demonstrates this.  McCain has only demonstrated that he can connect with the audience, but McCain didn\'t give any insight into his thinking or how his beliefs would translate into policy. <br><br>I can understand why many voters like McCain, it\'s easy to like someone who agrees with you at the starting gate.  But once you sit down and probe a candidate (which I thought is what this forum was about) then you see differences and gain a better understanding about that candidate.  Obama\'s answers were clearly richer and more revealing than McCain\'s "Yes/No" equivalent.</div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-1570099" class="dsq-comment-message">I\'m gonna repeat what I said in a post further down the page and add a few things:<br><br>I think Obama treated the event as more of a conversation. You could actually see him thinking about most of his answers. McCain treated it more like a normal speaking event. McCain often avoided the question and went into stories we\'ve heard him repeat 100s of times. They\'re good stories, and they invite applause, but I think it betrayed the spirit of the event itself.<br><br>So from a substantive point of view, I would say Obama won. But if we\'re going by who delighted the crowd more, McCain won.<br><br><blockquote>And McCain — once again — came across as highly likable, sincere and decisive. </blockquote><br>McCain <i>seemed</i> sincere, but he was repeating his old stories verbatim. That\'s not sincerity, that\'s practice.<br><br>Once again, we have the choice to ignore the substance of the two candidates and focus completely on style. Or we can choose the candidate that actually has a vision that will bring the country out of the decline of the Bush years.</div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-1570407" class="dsq-comment-message">It\'s interesting how many people think McCain came across as more knowledgeable and wiser than Obama.... given that McCain\'s answers were brief and to the point.  <br><br>As an example, McCain said he was pro-life and he pounded away at that, without getting into any details or revealing how it would affect his policies.  I assume that since McCain wants to overturn Roe v. Wade, and make abortion illegal that McCain wants to shut down abortion clinics... and I wonder how women would feel about having the government intrude on their lives like that....<br><br>However Obama does recognize that the decision to have an abortion is a very personal and gut-wrenching one for many women.  Obama said that we must reduce the number of abortions in this country, which is a good start for it shows that he would put programs in place to reduce the number of abortions.  He also went further and said that we should put programs in place which would help women make "pro-life" decisions.  Such programs I imagine would be daycare, etc.<br><br>Another example is the question about Supreme Court Justices.  McCain took exception to the "activist" liberal judges and said he would not have appointed them because they don\'t interpret the constitution they way the founding fathers wrote it.  (But what about the "activist" conservative judges who don\'t interpret the constitution the way the founding fathers wrote it?)  Whereas Obama had clear and thoughtful answers for why he wouldn\'t support some of the SC justices- for instance he would not have appointed because he wasn\'t a strong legal thinker, he lacked the experience.  <br><br>Given that Obama gave a lot of thought to his answers and gave insight into that thought, whereas McCain offered quick, straightforward responses with no further insights into his thinking, I find it hard to believe that folks would actually believe that McCain was wiser and understood the issues better.  There was nothing in McCain\'s answers to suggest that he is wiser or more knowledgeable about the issues.  My thought is that these folks agree with McCain\'s answers and so they find him wiser, more experienced, more knowledgeable, etc.</div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-1569925" class="dsq-comment-message">I\'d say Chuck Todd had it exactly right. Obama\'s resonses were thoughtful and substantive, but not crisp. Most of the time he never quite drove his point home. McCain\'s responses, on the other hand, were clear and concise. Although sometimes shallow and not always on-topic, he certainly remained on message. And he was funny.<br><br>It was also a venue that was tailor made for McCain. I have a lot of respect for Pastor Warren. He\'s a good and reasonable guy. but Saddleback Church is an evangelical church in the middle of one of the reddest areas in CA. A red area in CA may sound like an oxymoron, but it\'s true. in 2006 our district (CA-42) had the distinction of having the only Republican representative in the state (Garry Miller) to run unopposed. Obama\'s first appearance at Saddleback Church (for an AIDS forum back in 2006) sparked quite a controversy, because many of his parishioners thought Pastor Warren went beyond the pale to invite him. <br><br>The present visit didn\'t generate that kind of controversy, but it wasn\'t exactly Obama\'s type of crowd, either. I thought one of the most telling moments was when Warren asked McCain  to name something he changed his opinion on in the last 10 years. He said, "off-shore drilling". The crown went nuts. It was one of his biggest applause lines. Generally speaking most folks here in CA -- even here in OC -- though willing to consider the idea, are also concerned about the consequences. We have some very nice beaches around here, and they\'re very important to the local economy. So when the crowd cheered like they did I thought it was very indicative of their mind-set. <br><br>With that kind of crowd Obama could not rely on his typical talking points. That said though, I think he could have performed better. McCain, on the other hand, never had to stray from his. He was in conservative heaven -- or at least as close as could be had this side of the Pearly Gates.</div>\

Given his stances on hot-button topics such as abortion, Obama will never win over a majority of those for whom such litmus test issues are the be-all and end-all of their political interest.<br><br>What he needs to do with with Evangelicals is similar to what McCain needs to do with latinos, cut into his opponent\'s historical stronghold.<br><br>I can well imagine some thoughtful evangelicals in his wider audience to whom his sincere expressions of belief and calls to service for those less fortunate would have some appeal.  Obama simply refuses to cede uncontested, a significant part of the electorate.<br><br>As for McCain, though his lapses into his stump speech were, for a political junkie like myself, tiresome to say the least, they seemed to go over well with the immediate audience is Oh-so-red Orange county.  And it may well be that he accomplished what needs to be one of his main goals, firming up his support with social conservative skeptical of his bona fides.<br><br>Whether such a confirmation of his right-wing stances hurts or helps him with a broader audience remains to be seen.<br><br>My verdict:  not win/lose, but apples/oranges.</div>\

Joe Gandelman highlights an important reason why:<br><br>"Once again McCain has proven to be far stronger than some predicted he would be, exceeding expectations. And Obama has proven to be a tad less dynamic and overpowering than earlier hype suggested, not meeting some expectations."<br><br>This is a contest of expectations.  Obama\'s partisans have been over-the-top in celebrating his incredible powers . . . and equally excessive in defining McCain as "Grampa Simpson" angrily shouting at clouds.<br><br>Marc Ambinder\'s comment shows how influential Democratic partisans\' defining of McCain has been, and how it backfired on them here:<br>"Who says John McCain fares poorly in these types of sessions?" <br><br>It brings to mind the Carter-Reagan contest, when the Carter campaign had fiercely hammered Reagan as a bloodthirsty dimwitted warmonger bent on nuclear war.  When the majority of the American public saw Reagan in action for the first time in the Presidential debate -- a good-humored, avuncular fellow -- the expectations that Carter\'s partisans had constructed worked against their interests. <br><br>Surprise surprise, the Kossack quoted above echoes the brilliance of the Carter campaign: "Any moderate’s watching his performance tonight are appalled by his obvious love of war and all that has to do with it."<br><br>That said:  I expect the Obama people will retool before the debates.<br><br>This has been a warning shot across their bow, for it would have been far more damaging to Obama in the real debate.  They need to reduce expectations. . . by acknowledging publicly McCain\'s strength as a debater.<br><br>If the morons at KOS and Firedoglake keep pushing the meme of McCain as a drooling, senile warmonger it will come back to haunt them come the Presidential debates.</div>\

The media fell over themselves with butterfly feelings about how well McCain performed. The point is, it was a performance, and one he\'s performed many times. There were so many quotes he\'s used in his stump speech that no one seemed to even notice, or care. Obama once again trying to play by the rules gets (seemingly) crushed for being thoughtful. And McCain for answering questions quickly, some so quickly the question had yet to be completed, was given the award for most improved, Gimme a break.

I believe McCain is closer to our current president in intellect, and not just because people are saying that McCain voted with Bush 95% of the time (which is a line I won\'t use because McCain\'s voting record is more than just aligning hiimself with Bush, though it is a large part of it).  Rather I believe that McCain is closer to Bush intellectually because he doesn\'t have any academic achievements (legacy student at the Naval Academy, finished almost last in his class of nearly 900, was nearly kicked out), nor a career in anything but politics.  (Bush did have a career in energy but it was not at all successful.)  The one real job McCain had, as VP in Public Relations for the beer distributorship was given to him by his father-in-law.<br><br>The forum proves McCain can talk the talk, but there was absolutely nothing new about McCain that showed up in the forum.  For instance he said his greatest moral failing was the failure of his first marriage.  I find it hard to believe that people are surprised that he said this.  I find it hard to believe because I consider his answer to be a cop-out.  Everyone knows he divorced his first wife and no one can dispute that.  And I don\'t take issue with this, if McCain thinks it\'s his biggest moral failure then so be it.  The complaint I have about McCain and the reason I believe his answer is a cop-out is that McCain didn\'t tell WHY he thought it was his greatest moral failure.  Does he believe that he should have stayed with her because he\'s against divorce but failed to live up to his own standard?  Did he divorce her out of vanity because she was disfigured?  Why did he consider the failure of his marriage to be a moral failure?  The forum was suppose to let us see deeper into the candidates\' minds.  Nothing anywhere close to this came out of McCain\'s mind.<br><br>Obama, to contrast, spoke again of his experiments with drugs and drinking alcohol in his youth.  Just as I don\'t take issue with McCain\'s answer with his first marriage, I don\'t take issue with this by Obama.  The important difference between Obama and McCain is that Obama delved deeper and let us glimpse into his mind.  Obama went on to explain why he considered youthful drugs/alcohol to be his moral failure in terms of religion.  (He said he placed himself first, that he was self absorbed).  He went on to say what he learned from that and how it directed his life.  We got absolutely none of that reflection from McCain.  McCain could have been at a rally giving his positions.<br><br>So that\'s why I think McCain is more like Bush intellectually (and folks in 2000 had the same concerns about Bush).<br><br>I think McCain has used his maverick image to explain away some of his votes and actions.  He\'s like a little kid that parents put up with because they\'re used to it.  When McCain does something folks say, "There goes McCain again.  He\'s a real maverick and you\'re not going to change him."  They don\'t expect anything more of McCain.</div>\

I have said repeatedly that I would have been completely in, fully in support of the federal bill that everybody supported - which was to say --that you should provide assistance to any infant that was born - even if it was as a consequence of an induced abortion. That was not the bill that was presented at the state level. What that bill also was doing was trying to undermine Roe vs. Wade. By the way, we also had a bill, a law already in place in Illinois that insured life saving treatment was given to infants.<br><br>So for people to suggest that I and the Illinois medical society, so Illinois doctors were somehow in favor of withholding life saving support from an infant born alive is ridiculous. It defies commonsense and it defies imagination and for people to keep on pushing this is offensive and it\'s an example of the kind of politics that we have to get beyond.

Sometimes several sperm penetrate the outer membrane of the egg, and it takes time for the egg to eject the extra chromosomes ... Even when a single sperm enters, its genes remain separate from those of the egg for a day or more, and it takes yet another day or so for the newly merged genome to control the cell. So the \'moment\' of conception is in fact a span of twenty-four to forty-eight hours.</blockquote></div>\
