Big Daddy Prez

I just finished watching the first Presidential debate. One thing I couldn't shake about it was McCain's smiling throughout the whole thing. To me, he seemed irritated whenever Obama would debate a point that directly opposed his. Perhaps, though, he was pulling the forced shit eating grin for the cameras. Obama stood professional the whole time, in my eyes.

This whole thing was an interesting experience for me. I've never been into politics as much as I have this time around. Never have I watched a debate before and it's fascinating the way each candidate composed himself. McCain seemed to have a more personable approach they way he spoke, which actually made me want to listen to him, despite me not siding with Republicans. Obama seemed a bit cold to me, but I appreciated his business-like professionalism in conduct.

I'm still not 100% on who I want to vote for, because I don't vote party lines, and I'd rather vote Green Party. However, I will vote for the lesser of two evils when I know that if I vote Green, the larger evil would prevail and I will end up with a leader I think is incompetent. This is quite the inner struggle for me, because I want to vote for who I want to vote for, and not vote for the individual who will keep out the guy not fit to be Big Daddy Prez (or Hot Mama Prez, so I'm not being sexist here).

Watch the debate here.
