Next week you can expect my long awaited post on Twitter. You don’t want to miss it.
News
- On Thursday (9/11) both McCain and Obama were a part of a forum for civic service, it was shown on CNN. Originally the forum was supposed to be one that would not focus on the opponent, but I don’t think it happened. Several times the moderaters told both men the forum wasn’t meant to try to be about their opponent and then their question following that statement would be “how are you better with this than your opponent?” Looking back it is actually pretty funny how stupid the forum really was.
