The Forum last night was a lesson in contrasts, not only in the candidate's positions and demeanor, but on energy level. I was amazed at the lack of energy from the "young and vibrant" Obama, just back from a vacation in Hawaii, compared to his energized elder, McCain who's been charging away on the campaign trail!
The contrasts were huge...the ramblings while searching for a thought from Obama, against the decisive, thoughtful answers from McCain. I had a hard time staying awake for the first hour, but was re-energized when McCain appeared.
It was painful to watch the inexperienced child up against the wise war Hero.The contrast of the sleepy child looking like he needed a nap, trying to stay focused, was ironic, considering the left has labeled McCain too old to run for president.
I think Obama needs to go back to Hawaii for another couple of weeks.
