I saw on TV the Saddleback event in SoCal.
Both majory-party candidates showed they can think on their feet.

It could be my anti-superstition bent,
but my impression was that McCain did more pandering to that audience
(no surprise to me).http://www.clipsandcomment.com/2008/08/17/full-transcript-saddleback-...

Yeah, extemporaneous speaking is a real plus for high government
office.
Deliberate, tactful, and contemplative speech is totally over-rated.

Anyone remember G-W's famous taunt: "Bring it On!"?

Besides, you don't honestly think either candidate needed a
teleprompter. (Well, unless you're stupid.) Especially not Palin.
The stakes were way too high.
She had that baby memorized, and the whole thing was correagraphed.
Probably on that same back lot stage where Obama got his greek
columns...
(How's that for sarcasm?)

Actually, I read the columns were modeled from Soldier Field in
Chicago.
But if we base our votes on scenery, it's all over anyway.

I too saw the Saddleback event.
I was suprised at how well Obama did. Very thoughtful and deliberate
in my opinion.
I half expected him to get grilled - though I do think he shares many
centrist views on faith and religion, including faith-based
initiatives (which I can't support).

Then again, they were both asked slowball questions.
