Let McCain Be Smart-Alecky
Let McCain be McCain?
What demeanor should McCain display tonight? Angry doesn’t work. Solemn doesn’t work. ake-smiley doesn’t work. Instead, McCain should go back to his roots and unleash his inner smart-aleck. If Obama accuses him of being erratic in a crisis, he should say: “So I’m erotic in a crisis? Who knew?”
McCain is at his best when he’s being the smart-aleck. It suits him far better than the “rumpled old man” that he’s been at the last two debates. As the author notes, if he comes out with a couple wiseacre cracks, it’s going to throw Obama off his game. It’s no secret that the Obamessiah is terrible when he can’t fall back on the teleprompter points that have been pretty carefully-scripted for him. McCain has to take him off his game and let us see just how little substance there is behind the talking points.
I don’t expect we’ll see it, but it’s definitely the best way I can see for McCain to win tonight and to grab a few more points in the polls.

Well he sure as hell needs to do SOMETHING, this idea is as good as any. I have been praying ALL DAY for McCain to just pound Obama and for Obama to start stuttering. Once the stuttering starts, it ain't pretty.
