John McCain must have decided sometime between rounds that he couldn’t win this fight without throwing at least a few punches.

Maybe he learned a bit from Sarahcuda’s debate performance; it’s ok to actually say that Obamimam is lying when he does. Maybe for tonight’s debate, he could bring a copy of the Congressional Record to remind Obamination that there is a record of his votes. It would also show his lack of ideas. To paraphrase Douglas Adams, Obama has written and sponsored bills in much the same way that a brick hasn’t.

I certainly hope that McCain is prepared to back up his own record with specifics this time. If he brings the examples and facts to the table, he should win the debate handily. If he is unprepared to defend his statements he will be in for trouble.
