Debates '08

I tortured my children (and sister and Damon) by going to mom's tonight to watch a smidgen of the debates.  We don't have a TV at home and so whenever I'm around one, I turn into a zombie and ignore my children and they in turn, turn into hyper children, begging for my attention or anyone else's attention, creating an impossible atmosphere or watching the debates.  From what I could watch and listen to on the radio, my synapses is:

Obama:  Positive, intelligent, thoughtful, honest, future forward thinking, organized thought and speech, open minded, empathetic, clarified every attack from McCain w/o savaging in response, "work with me, I listen" vibe.

McCain: Evasive, aggressive, edgy, negative, condescending, arrogant, 72 year old face and neck skin stretched tighter than mine, stinkin' old and goitery, "Grumpy, hothead channeling John Goodman in The Big Labowski" vibe.
