How can the media ignore the fact that over 200,000 people came out to hear Obama speak in Germany. And for the first time, in a long time, they were waving American Flags, not burning them. Better yet, why should they ignore it?

Meanwhile McCain is at some German Sausage House with a party of two. What would you cover if you were in the media?

Hey, McCain asked for this himself by always goading Obama to go abroad.

Looks like McCain went "all in" as we say in Texas Hold'em, and lost.

One more point. If I was Obama I wouldn't take the bait of the town hall meeting either. Why should McCain ride in on his coattails for an audience. McCain audiences are dwindling. Obama should stick to the three televised debates. That's the smartest move.

McCain is slipping badly, and I think much more after those 3 debates. BTW, McCain is not just a poor speaker, he gets his facts very confused and that does NOT make for a good president. I'll give you that everyone has gaff's, but McCain's are really increasing and getting out of hand. Again, just my opinion. November will tell all. ;D
