Because John McCain will be here tomorrow at 2 p.m. to talk about his energy and economic views. I had wanted to attend but then I would've had to bring my one year old and I didn't think that would go well. Has anyone seen him speak in person? If so should I try to get a baby sitter? I would like to see him speak but then again I don't know how well I would actually listen to him.

I have. It's sort of like watching a Charlton Heston movie, but where Heston was replaced by Leslie Nielson.

I can't give you first hand information about his public speaking, but I can tell you he's Shit in bed.

I'd go see him if you can. Preferrably childless as it's just easier in public, but if not, bring your daughter along.

It may turn out to be a waste of time, but we waste alot of time eh?...and who knows McCain could drop dead any second and you'd not ever have the opportunity gain.

Yeah that's kind of how I was looking at it. The way they have it set up is kind of screwy to me. They want you to RSVP so you can get one of the 350 seating room spots. You would think that he would hold it in a bigger place or outside, like Al Gore did when he was here. Is that common practice for them to hold them in smaller areas like that with them wanting you to RSVP for a seat? I've never really been into listening to a candidate before. This year it has really got my attention, maybe because I finally realized that I need to care for my daughters future.

McCain does very poorly in large venues. Hence his demands for ten "town hall" meetings instead of more traditional debates.

Well, there's other reasons for his demand but the choice of a "town hall" setting is very much because it's one of the few times he can pull it off.

Well I didn't end up going but it is all taped here. They said on the news last night that someone was escorted out after being irate. I didn't watch all of the videos so I don't know if it's on there or not.

McCain does very poorly filling large venues.


Right, and they can't afford to pay that many chair fillers these days.
