So the last debate is over and we're coming into the final stretch. We had an interesting evening last night. We packed up the kids and went to a restaurant (and nightclub) in the Miracle Mile to watch the debate with members of the Los Angeles Republicans Alliance. It was rather surreal. A bunch of Hollywood-like people actually hooting and hollering over McCain.
I was glad to hear McCain bring up some of the issues that make me question Obama's judgement. I was a bit disappointed in his style. He seemed to jab and jab, but then retreat before the knockout. Obama had a few good comebacks and points. Ultimately, McCain ain't the smoothest talker, but he's earnest and seems far more trustworthy than Obama. There's something about Obama that creeps me out. Probably the way he obfuscates and talks his way around the issue at hand, like how he responded about his votes on the Born Alive Act and on William Ayers. So I'm with the Frank Lutz group in not wanting to trust Obama.
For your homestretch entertainment, here's a ten-minute rant by a local musician that has been linked by a number of my favorite bloggers. On why he's voting for McCain/Palin...and a hit piece on the far left. Opinionated, charismatic, controversial, but thought-provoking and funny.

McCain didn't seem too worried about William Ayres when he said on David Letterman concerning this that a lot of words are said in a campaign and it's politics. So why should we worry?
McCain siad he isn't worried about William Ayers as a person. He said he IS worried about why Obama is not telling the full truth about his relationship to Ayers. Obama pretends to barely know the guy when he was Chairman of a Board for him, worked on the same floor as him, has been to his house, and possibly had him ghost write his books. There is a huge disconnect between his official claim that Ayers was just a guy in his neighborhood and the growing body of evidence.
