The Final Debate


Tomorrow night at Hofstra University is the last debate before we go to the polls on November 4.

The stakes couldn't be higher for John McCain.

He's trailing in critical battleground states, he's changed his message once again and he was forced to turn off the race-baiting part of the GOP 'Southern Strategy' when he started losing even more ground as a result of it.

McCain promised his supporters that he'd 'kick Sen Obama's derriere' in this last debate, but he hasn't done so in the previous two and we;ll definitely be watching to see if he can back up his trash talk or is just selling woof tickets again.

With 20 days to go, Sen. Obama is in an enviable position. He's starting to get newspaper editorial endorsements, he's forcing McCain to burn up money defending GOP turf and is raking in the cash.

His task in this final debate is to not make any mistakes. He must continue to look, act and sound presidential and be the cool brother we know he is. Since this debate is focusing on his strong suit, domestic issues, he gets to showcase that formidable intellect he has laying out his agenda for tackling our nation's economic problems.

It should be fun to watch.
