Caller into CSPAN 1 just called McCain's answers CANNED
She was impressed that Obama was so thoughtful and carefully considered his answers. I missed which line she called in on.

5. Exactly. Typical Republican pablum.
Nothing original, nothing surprising except the fact that he is now on the hard right, and completely inconsistent when you consider what he has done in the past.

He turned into Mitt Romney.

One person got it! Yay!

One edit: Two. Two people got it. Yesss!

I was a fundie once. I need to get out of that place right now and back to reality. McCain played well to the fundies, but perhaps the real world has learned to spot bullshit really well since Bush.

10. That's why the MSM won't touch this issue
They knew all along what it was going to be. This was a put-on performance to try and make McCain look good.

11. This is better than I thought--
Maybe people are more thoughtful and wise than I gave them credit for. So far, except for the few wingnuts, it seems that people are seeing right through McSame.

14. "independent" caller raises questions of McCain's temper
As in, why there hasn't BEEN any, despite the fact that even Repukes in the Senate have talked about it in public.

15. That's what I'm talking about
McCain was canned and giving the pat, RW answers without being charismatic.

16. Independent caller (former Republican) didn't like the pro-choice stance
is leaning Obama. Says McCain didn't answer the questions.
