To be fair, at the very end of the debate, McCain did shake his hand.... and then ran out of there as fast as possible, catching people off guard.
He really can't hide his disdain and anger toward his opponents.

What a flat-out asshole he was in this debate....just pure, cranky, piece of shit, asshole.
And it made him look so, so bad. See, it's true Town Hall meetings are his "thing", but usually they're filled with pre-scripted guests and audiences who woo and cheer (and now apparently yell "nigger" and "terrorist" openly). You're little Evening at the Improv moments cannot be timed to applause and audience reaction when the audience is not supposed to make any reaction.

OxygenThief - 2008-10-08 Evening at the Improv is the best description I've heard for his joke attempts.

Too bad debates hardly mean anything. Obama killed on the Gallup and CNN polls and CSPAN exit poll (by a tiny margin), but it's not really that important unless McCain could successfully create a new message for his campaign. Considering that he just used this opportunity to attack means he threw away the few chances he gets to establish the tone and direction of discourse, and the comeback Obama had regarding Teddy about "speaking softly" was awesome, though I doubt the kinds of people who are still thinking about voting for McCain had any knowledge of the reference.
The only thing that will matter is people actually getting out of their houses and voting. I'm terribly frightened that all this good news for Obama will make people overly confident or lazy, which is why I am volunteering for the campaign to get out the vote.

Man, even Bush shook his opponents' hands after the debate. I still think he'd be a better leader than Bush, but that's just a show of bad sportsmanship right there.

Smart move on McCain. You never know if Obama might have some anthrax or some other chemical/biological weapon on his terrorist hand.

Desidiosus - 2008-10-08 So McCain, former pilot, former POW, decides to take the coward's way out and let his wife potentially be killed instead of putting country first and exposing the plot himself?
That's cowardice we can believe in!
|
Spastic Avenger - 2008-10-08 So his right hand is his terrorist hand? Is his left hand the one he uses to steel from midel mer'cuh?

Scrotum, I've shaken the hands of many black people. I went to a mostly black highschool. I've made physical contact with many black people, and have done more than just shake hands with a few black ladies.
|
Udderdude - 2008-10-08 Would it also be safe to say you have a few friends who are black?

And let me tell you Mr. Obama, you are no black kennedy.

It looks more like he was too slow to shake Obama's hand when he offered it. Obama should've given him more time to react.
On the other hand, do we really want a president who's too slow to react when he has to shake hands with Putin.

Did McCain put a "kick me" sign on Obama?!

Just like the Clinton Kiss Mishap.

He didn't refuse Obama, he offered Obama his woman.
That's just the way John McCain swings.

I choose to see this as a deliberate snub, because I already dislike McCain.
|
chumbucket - 2008-10-08
clearly a snub when you see it the second time, plus the fact the guy just took off.
|
badideasinaction - 2008-10-08 Hey, McCain had to go and save the economy. No time for formalities!
|
chumbucket - 2008-10-08 oh yeah and find bin laden, he knows how to do that, he'll get him
