The new strategy for McCain

Get Obama on TV with him as often as he can, answering as many questions as possible. Here are some comments from National Review tonight...

I Have No Idea How Many People Were Watching tonight ... [Kathryn Jean Lopez]
.... but for the first time, watching tonight, I feel like McCain can win this thing. There's just a huge gravitas gap between these candidates ....

Low Blow [Mark R. Levin]
Without a doubt, the lowest moment of the night was Obama's smear of Clarence Thomas. He, like Harry Reid, can't simply disagree with Thomas, he has to try to degrade him. On Obama's best day he can't hold a candle to Thomas's intelligence. Obama can barely make it through a press conference and ducks town hall debates with McCain because of his inability to speak in complete sentences when pressed to show his much noted but usually absent brilliance.


McCain Tonight [Mark R. Levin]
Like K-Lo, I certainly do disagree with John McCain on some big issues, but tonight he was outstanding in ways Barack Obama is not and cannot be. McCain was substantive, clear, concise, and relaxed. Obama seemed a bit nervous, some of his answers seemed contrived, and most of all it was clear that he is simply out of McCain's league when it comes to substance and experience. Score it a big McCain night. He should hope many, many voters were watching - more than the usual CNN Saturday night crowd.

I'm Not John McCain's Biggest Fan... [Kathryn Jean Lopez]
...but put him up against Barack Obama and there really is no contest .... He just has a seriousness and confidence Obama doesn't. In large part, because Obama simply doesn't have the experience ....
