…but am I the only person that doesn’t think it’s possible for a 72 year-old man — or the 47 year-old man next to him, really — to be writing so fast with a friggin Sharpie and actually produce something legible. Either give these dudes ball point pens or let’s get rid of the legal pad charade, OK?

Bomani,
I am more inclined that Barack may have writing some credible material given his past background as a lawyer. By the way, we are convinced that McCain may have “let one rip” during his response to Schieffer’s question about education.

First sentence should have began ” I am more inclined to believe that..”

I would love to see the things each of them wrote – especially McCain. He was probably over there drawing stick figures or something.

C’mon now, Patrick. McCain isn’t an imbecile, regardless of how you might feel about his policies.
To answer your question, Bo, I would guess they write down one word “triggers” that remind them not to forget something the next time they speak, similar to the notes written for public speaking.

I was thinking about why McCain was using a Sharpie and then I realized why. Because he’s 72 god damn years old. So that means he can’t read what he wrote if he were to use a ball point pen. He has to use a Sharpie. I guess you didn’t notice the Velcro on his shoes either. (I made the Velcro part up)

I think McCain draws pics of stick girls with big boobies…

PS- only an ex-debater would notice that!

Erin, you may have just swayed a votes to McCain’s side with that. Every man respects boobies.
