And if McCain could draw a crowd that size and Obama couldn't, what would your opinion be then?

Would you still be pissing all over him?

If you're running for President and you don't think you're bright or elite in some kind of way, than you shouldn't be running at all.

McCain is "modest"? How exactly? By giving one of the worst speeches I've ever heard in front of an ugly green screen the very night that Obama made history in America? Or by showing up at a Yankees game with Rudy and letting Rudy trash Obama? At a baseball game no less? By attacking Obama for not going overseas enough, and then attacking for going overseas?

You just sound really jealous because your guy isn't charismatic, can't talk about the economy to save his life, is behind on the fact that the war is ending, can't give speeches in arenas because his demographic goes to bed too early, and the fact that now that Obama is travelling abroad, everyone loves the guy. Everyone sees him as the America that once was and could be again. Bush and Cheney and McCain and their bunch were followed with bombings and massive protests and threats, and Obama goes over there and people can't wait to meet him and the PM of Iraq announces that Obama's plan is precisely what's called for right now.

On top of everything else, it's like Clinton with this guy: the more the right attacks him or his wife, the more the people will like him.

McCain keeps doing himself no favors by playing the grumpy-old-man card.

One question: Why isn't McCain being his charismatic old self? I remember him as a really charming guy who could tell it like it is. Where is that guy now?
