Debate coaches: 'Lost' McCain must up game

Andy Barr

Top national debate coaches say John McCain needs to make vast improvements if he wants to best Barack Obama in the final presidential debate on Wednesday " and based on his performance in the two debates held so far, they’re skeptical that the old dog is willing to learn any new tricks.

While Obama appeared “steady and consistent” in their encounters, McCain seemed “aimless,” said Emory University debate coach Melissa Maxy Wade.

Reaction polls taken during and immediately after both debates showed that respondents in general, and undecided voters in particular, favored Obama.

“Nobody who is coaching McCain would tell him to say ‘my friends,’” said pollster and former national debate champ Matt Towery. “It looks like John McCain is not receiving any professional training from coaches.”

McCain is in fact coached by one of the best in the county, even if that coaching hasn’t been evident in his performances.

Obama may be "young and inexperienced," but McCain's physical and mental health is in question. Most respondents say McCain's physical health is a big issue because of his age, and feel he will not be able to last through the first four years. Many also question his mental health; his outbursts, temper, and inconsistencies are troublesome. On the other hand, most feel Obama's health is not an issue,

and his intellect is not in question.

McCain's choice of Palin shows his judgment is poor to non-existent.

His flip-flops during the past two weeks in how he reacted to the bailout legislation show he has no direction or answers to the financial crisis. What he has suggested sounds more liberal than conservative.

McCain = questionable mental and physical health.
Obama = good physical health and mental acuity.

Appearances and evidence counts - or should, when we elect our president.

"... and his intellect is not in question."

At least not by his supporters, or by ci.

NEW YORK " Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin says she supports a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage, a break with John McCain who has said he believes states should be left to define what marriage is.
