Trent 0 #2 October 17, 2008 No BS, I thought McCain was way funnier. Much more clever jokes and shots at himself and Obama. I think he came off way more likeable than Obama. It just seemed to be more genuine when he was wrapping it up too.Oh, hello again! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

downwardspiral 0 #5 October 17, 2008 I agree. Both were funny but I found McCain to be funnier with better timing. I did gag a little bit at Obama comparing himself to Jesus and Superman. edited to add: ok he really didn't compare himself to Jesus but the reference wasn't funny.www.FourWheelerHB.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billvon 3,078 #6 October 17, 2008 >ok he really didn't compare himself to Jesus but the reference wasn't funny. I thought it was pretty funny. It was a poke at all the people calling him the "Obamessiah." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FreeflyChile 0 #8 October 17, 2008 QuoteMcCain was funnier, edgier, and sounded more sincere in praising his opponent. I also agree with this (though I thought both were funny, I thought McCain was hilarious). Maybe I am looking into this too much, but I wonder now that as we get closer to the election McCain is starting to see that he is losing this thing, and as such is more relaxed - he's playing from behind so he doesn't have to worry about being as careful about what he says/does, etc, whereas Obama is more nervous and careful because he has more to lose if he slips up. Not sayin that it was the specific case here (that either guy would slip up), but maybe that attitude has entered McCain's mind and he's more relaxed in general since now he can't lose this thing, only win it - and it showed in how he deliverred the jokes and clearly enjoyed himself more.

downwardspiral 0 #9 October 17, 2008 Coincidently the same thoughts entered my mind as I watched McCain's set.www.FourWheelerHB.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflybella 0 #10 October 17, 2008 I also thought McCain's speech was funnier! Loved it! But to your point, I thought Obama was having a great time laughing at himself - and McCain seemed a bit nervous. Then again, it could've been just that McCain's jokes were funnier! Either way, Obama looked verrry relaxed laughing at himself. Action expresses priority. - Mahatma Ghandi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
