CLEVELAND - Sens. Barack Obama and John McCain stepped into the proverbial "ring" again last night with each other and battled to a standoff.For the frontrunning Obama, that's akin to a victory.
Held in Nashville, Tennessee, the town hall-style debate (the second of three) saw both men clash over the usual key issues affecting the nation. The discussion focused heavily on the economy, taxes and healthcare and seemed fairly acrimonious at times.
Obama repeatedly linked the elderly Arizona senator to the highly unpopular President Bush while McCain continually painted his rival as inexperienced. "We don't have time for on-the-job training, my friends," said McCain of the freshman senator from Illinois.
In my opinion, McCain did what he always does; speak from the rich man's perspective. If he doesn't realize soon that most Americans are middle class and in a major bind, he'll lose this election in stirring fashion.
