Next debate, should Obama leave his podium and force McGruff to look him in the eye?

[tridim]

Force him to consciously and deliberately turn away to avoid Obama's gaze.

Or he could say something like..
"This is a serious issue John, I want you to look me straight in the eye and tell me what you really think."

I know Obama probably wont go there, but I do think this eye thing is creepy enough that undecideds might get the heeby-jeebies about McCain.

1. I don't think he should do that...

He looks calm and presidential right now...

To force the issue that way might look desperate...

A little subtlety is a good thing!

2. Yeah, and pull an Al Gore, circa 2000?

Thanks but no thanks.

5. Yea, you're probably right. It would make a killer SNL skit though.

[KathieG]

13. Ha...I was thinking the same thing

[TwilightGardener]

3. Nope, he should let McLoser continue to look like an utter wank.

[Borgnine]

4. If I were Obama...

...I'd be teabagging McCain by debate's end.

Good thing I'm not Obama.

[Bicoastal]

10. T-bagging is something Frat Boys do, proving they're not gay by doing EXTREMELY gay stuff.

[ecstatic]

6. The maverick is a coward nt

[BlueIdaho]

No.

He needs to continue to look Presidential and approachable.

[TheDonkey]

7. Oh my no. Obama handled McTroll's pathetic attitude masterfully. Keep looking at him

taking the fight to him and watch McTroll nervously squirm.

[BrklynLiberal]

8. No. Let the people witness how McSame cannot look him in the eye.

[FrenchieCat]

9. No.

[Drunken Irishman]

11. Never, ever invade your opponent's personal space.

Just ask Gore and Rick Lazio about that.

[Lil Missy]

12. Absolutely not! When the opponent is making an ass of himself ..

stand back and let him/her self destruct by there own hand. Never interfere!

[HughMoran]

14. He need to go and kiss McCain

:rofl:

[rufus dog]

15. Bad idea

Let McLame be a dick all he wants. His base will think he is a bad ass, the remaining 10% who don't think he is an ass will come to the conclusion that he is is an ass.

[Thrill]

16. The next debate is a sit down one.

[tridim]

17. That's good, it'll be more creepy and obvious with them both in the shot.

[TooRaLoo]

18. Not his style. It would look like a stunt.

But he COULD certainly mention it.
