OXFORD, MISSISSIPPI. Friday September 26, 2008--The first presidential debate of the election season started off slow for Obama whose performance gradually declined throughout the night. McCain's answers were short and concise while Obama often caught himself stuttering and rambling on with details of how he would fix the economy.

The major topic of the night was the economy with occasional accusations of sexism and elitism by McCain to Obama, who indeed is an overeducated elitist Marxist who is unable to connect with the average American. The topic of Obama's religious associations with the Muslim faith as well as his hateful church pastor were also briefly discussed. Obama accused McCain of making no sense urging him to see the insanity of the very premise that he would be Muslim and have a Christian pastor.

Many of the questions, which were submitted by average Americans, were concerning the economy and the immediate threat of a possible depression, the questions pressed this important issue over and over again. However, Obama was caught on several occasions trying to use these questions and issues to avoid answering questions McCain repeatedly raised about his associations--loose as they may be--with Rezco and Bill Ayers. Obama looked flustered at times when he was clearly trying to change the topic from scandalous associations and his past cocaine usages to talk about economic issues.

McCain's performance was at its peak when he answered possibly one of the most important questions asked at the debate "how do you explain your past actions in the senate voting against more regulations?" McCain's answer was flawless and inspiring as he quickly invoked his years at Hanoi Hilton saying that those years were his "most regulated years yet" and that the bitter and painful experience left an impression on him: he never wanted anyone or anything to be regulated the way he was for 5 years. McCain finished that comment with "that, my friends, was why I was against regulation." He added "but now I'm totally for it"

Later when asked about his health situation McCain responded by citing his lack of physical activity as a plus, he continued "Obama is constantly playing basketball, this may increase his chances of injury while in the white house." The audience gave him a standing ovation.
One of the few moments Obama shined was when he praised the military service of his opponent John McCain showing a rare instance of respect toward someone who is clearly better than him in every way, shape and form.

Obama's unbending focus on the issues was certainly his downfall as it showed Americans tonight that he is unable to show multi-dimensionality and personality.  Newscasters, bloggers, and pundits are already calling this debate as a clear win for McCain. McCain is truly an American hero with a deep understanding of the economy with plenty of relevant experience whereas Obama continued to lack on truly connecting with the American people who clearly still need more time to get to know him.
After the event some of the people interviewed had these things to say:

-What did you think about the debate sir?

-I was sitting front row at that there debate and I caught a slight whiff of beer off of him [McCain], I really feel like he's one of us and that I can sit down and have a beer with him. He was great.

-What about Senator Obama?

-He smelled like Harvard. I puked in my throat and had to swallow it.

-What about you ma'am?

-I came here to see Sarah Palin. I'm confused; I thought she was running for president?

-And you ma'am, what did you think about the debate?

- I was disappointed they didn't talk about abortion and gay marriage. My real concern in life right now is that we make sure all them gays don't go around getting married and making gay babies. Shame on McCain for not bringing that up.

-and you sir?

- Was it just me, or was there a halo shining on McCain's head.
