Neo-Neocon at PJM asks, "Is Obama Buckling Under Pressure?" What stood out to me after reading the piece is her observation about McCain and Obama's different ways of handling the enormous pressure of this election:
Which candidate sounds more ready to lead?
Much has been made of McCain’s propensity for anger, and it was the subject of constant early speculation. When would the famous McCain temper make its appearance, and how bad would the melt-down be? The race isn’t over yet and anything is still possible. But the fact that it has failed to materialize so far is an indication that McCain is holding up surprisingly well under the strain....
If Obama’s star seems to be fading, it may be due at least in part to his reactions to the situation of finding himself suddenly behind in the polls, threatened by opponents he previously underestimated. It is a question of character, stamina, and judgment. He doesn’t seem to be “keeping his head” now that he is being tested in this new way.
Which candidate sounds more ready to lead?

Buckling like a stepped-on Slinky
I'm beginning to see Obama as quite juvenile. He reminds me of how in junior and high school we used say potentially profane, lewd double entendres in class, get a real good laugh from our classmates and then plead naivete to our teacher.
He gave the finger to Hillary, made the fish and lipstick comments plus numerous other gaffes. Plus other stuff by his campaign which he acts as if he can't control and doesn't take any personal responsibility. Not good characteristics for the leader of the free world.
It's well to remember that Barack Obama owes his position in the United States Senate, and his previous position in the Illinois State Senate, to his skill at driving his opponents out of the race. He managed to get Jack and Jeri Ryan's divorce records unsealed, to Jack Ryan's extreme embarrassment, ultimately causing him to retire from politics. He managed by dint of Chicago-style politics to disqualify all his primary-election challengers in his Illinois State Senate contest, leaving him the sole Democrat contender for a seat no Republican has ever held.
Barack Obama has never had to face strong opposition. He's always managed to avert the need. This time, he can't do that -- and his inexperience as a political candidate in a contested race is on display.
Obama's campaign has been a real dog and pony show....all style, little substance. Can't commit to a stance, and really has a hard time when confronted with direct questioning.
larry - thanks for the image(and song) stuck in my head. :)
I find it interesting that on the one hand we have a commercial hammering on McCain for not using email but no mention of the speed with which he can get an answering commercial out), and on the other hand we have the silver-tongued orator who can't order a cheeseburger without a Teleprompter.
Obama hasn't done anything. He hasn't been tested, he hasn't been seasoned, he hasn't achieved anything.
He is a gigantic ball of ego that is very confidently telling people (on the left) that he's a great man, something akin to the Messiah. They believe it, in fact they lap it up.
It's more than a little strange, but this has happened over and over again in history - usually with a dismal outcome.
Obama has been coddled most of his life. If he holds up so poorly during the campaign, only can only imagine (in horror) how he'd stand up to the pressure of being Leader of the Free World.
Take a look at before and after pictures of the past several presidents. The job takes a toll on the office holder.
I think the odds are high that Obama will have a meltdown during one of the so-called debates, especially if McCain continues to lead in the polls.
Of course, it's almost guaranteed that Biden is bound to say something extremely stupid during one of the VP debates.
As someone who doesn't want the GOP to take the White House, I have to admit that McCain is in a better position to lead. He just strikes me as a solid guy with genuine confidence, unlike Obama.
I believe we live in a world where a president not only has to be able to lead, but to effectively delegate.
(S)he will need to know who to choose to put in the right position in a cabinet, know how to pick the right advisers, appointees, and know how to compile all the information in order to forge sound policy. No one individual needs to be (or even can be) the one who knows everything. But a president does have to know the ones who do, and be able put them where they need to be.
With that in mind, I look at Biden, I look at Palin. And I look real hard at who chose them.
Have you all noticed that B. HUSSEIN Obama's diction and speech patterns have also changed ( depending on th e location)? When I see him here in Michigan, he drops his polished Harvard Law School diction,and he begins to sound more like a African-American politician from Detroit or Flint,MI.
McCain cannot use email because he cannot type, he is disabled from torture. He cannot comb his own hair. Someone in the Obama camp is either seriously stupid or does not understand human nature to put on an attack ad attacking McCain for his heroism. I am not big on McCain by any stretch, but Obama has less executive experience than I as a small business owner.
He was not ready for the Senate as his record shows.
Trey
Somebody oughta run a poll:
Do you know somebody that in the last week that expected somebody of appropriate pay grade to print out their email for them?
Do you know somebody that in last week told somebody of appropriate pay grad to send an email to somebody saying "..."?
I for one know of at least one University littered with them--many of half my age and ten times my agility.
