McCain Declares Himself Victorious in Debates

[MossMan]

Congratulations in the debate Sentor McCain. It's nice to see you have helpfully put up this ad before the debates began. Since you've already declared youself victorious, I hardly see why we have to go through with the debates.

Lol, I just love the look on McCains face when O brought up the fact that 10 days ago McCain was still claiming that the "fundamentals of the economy were strong."

And as predicted McCain did not reply to that point.

I showed my nephews that - ages 7 & 11 - they thought it was hysterically funny.

They are into sports - and they know you can't declare victory before it occurs!

Well so far it looks as though he very well be victorious. He sure is ruffling Obama's feathers.

Here's my prediction for the debates:
Everyone who supports McCain will declare him the victor.
Everyone who supports Obama will declare him the vicort.

Those who work for McCain will confidently state McCain outdid Obama.
Those who work for Obama will confidently state Obama outdid McCain.

I've been following these debates for years and I have never been wrong.

I'm What the Heck and I endorse this prediction.

i dont think you can say anyone is winning yet LOL
i dont like the faces and laughing McCain is doing while Obama answers questions. They keep going to a split screen and showing mccain while BO talks and he looks annoyed.

 

[Purrrrfecta]

What both of them is saying is correct. I think McCain is punching, and Obama is having to dust himself off at times. I also think that Obama is correct on the issues of Iraq.

McCain sure does like mentioning that he wasn't Miss Congeniality. He says it like it's a bad thing, but his VP pick lists that proudly on HER resume.

He should have some pudding and a nap.

That victory ad is sad. Predictible, but sad.

So, I'm looking to confirm what you posted, but I can't find it. Was it in the Atlantic or in the Wall Street Journal?

Agreed.

I see two problems with this add A) It's possibly a photoshop and B) It was the WSJ who release the add into cirrculation before it should have been. Both sides will claim victory after the debate is over so wither side having a "winning" add is no surprise.

Now the question I have about the debate is why after both being asked to respond(face/look at) to each other directly McCain is having what seems to be a hard time even glancing at Obama. Obama had this same problem until about 10 mins into the debate and has been doing an OK job responding directly to McCain since.

So, your quote lists both The Atlantic and the Wall Street Journal in it, but when I go to The Atlantic online, the page doesn't look the same. When I go to the page that should be what you post on the Wall Street Journal, it isn't there either. This is what I find:

I'm not finding it, nor the story on the left hand side of the ad. Any help you can provide here?

I call this a fake - here is the real website with ad on the side

The add is no longer there from what I can see. But this is a web add and they change every time you refresh the page. It's a script that changes the adds. It was either faked or it was pulled from the rotation which the script is linked to when the mistake was noticed.

Same ad for Norfolk Southern transportation every time I go to the link
