I realized last night that McCain is Grandpa Simpson. About three seconds after he starts talking about an issue, it turns into a pointless, tedious personal anecdote. What the fuck was he talking about when he said that he realized something when he saw a poster of Vladimir Putin in someone's room? I was completely lost. Obama is a pretty bad debater, but in McCain's company he looks like Cicero.
