not in substance but in style
during the town hall bill had with perot and bush1,he was all over the stage,emphsising his energy with a show of motion.meanwhile bush1 and ross just stayed on their stools checking their watches.
mccain tried to pull this off and was a complete failure at it.

1. I hadn't thought of it in terms of Bill Clinton, but I did notice that.
As I said in another post, he's trying to look folksy and cool so he doesn't look old. (Of course, I got accused of defending McCain for saying that...).

3. He looked like a lurker, a stalker, taking old-man steps all over the stage.
pathetic, almost pitiful except that he's filled with so much bitter that I can't pity him.

4. I think he moved around because his depends were bunching up
Scooting up onto the stool they had was causing his depends to bunch up in his crotch

9. Mc* couldn't actually get up on his stool!
He was only able to lean against it. I have several friends who are a little older than him and they have trouble with that. Can't someone get grandpa a chair?

10. I saw Dane Cook at age 73.
No, seriously I thought he was trying for some "Reaganesque" quality. The way he kept invoking the name of St. Ron I thought his shade was going to appear like a genie from a lamp. I can't wait to hear Ron Jr. on this.
