6. Is there a video of this???????????????????
This needs to be something talked about for decades the way the Reagan line against Mondale is.

30. Yep, here, was in another thread....

That is just WRONG, Cindy decided to shake his hand when John wouldn't, she obviously has better knowledge of how people in polite society act! Her addiction to painkillers hadn't made her forget simple manners, whereas it seems like McCain never knew them to begin with.

34. Wow. Check out Brokaw backing away from Obama afterwards.
He must be assuming Obama would be mad at him for the way he ran the debate.

8. Cindy would, but not McCan't
He went out of his way to avoid shaking Obama's hand, in fact he even went out of his way, again, to avoid looking at him.

15. he can't look at him because he is ASHAMED
of his lies.

He isn't a good person...but I think he knows just enough (more than Sarah) to know that he and his campaign are full of shite.

it shows when he can't even look at the guy. That's body language for "I am lying about you."

FU MCCain

16. Yeah, that was weird. I wonder what he said to Cindy... "Shake his damn hand, c__t"
That's my guess.

19. Yes! I saw it! McCain patted Obama on the back, Obama turns around, McCain refuses his hand.
So, Obama turns to Cindy, and she shakes his hand.

I agree with your assessment of McCain.

26. He shook hands immediately after the debate, which was kind of mucked up by
Brokaw who was still trying to read his script. A min later when Obama reached out for his hand, McCain definitely ducked him. Cindy saw it and shook his hand properly, however.

24. McCain fucked up big time with "that one," and not shaking the extended hand.
He's going to get hammered for those.

35. McCain was saying something, and sort of gesturing to his wife
I wonder what he said? Those people on the front row would know.
