So bad, it's worth watching again

McCain's speech Tuesday night was easily the worst I've ever seen. Period. I can't, for the life of me, figure out what his campaign was thinking. They played right into Obama's hands -- by referring constantly to Obama's "change" message, by weakly attempting a crowd (that was oddly small and unengaged), and by giving the speech just before Obama's so that the entire world could see the contrast.
McCain's seemed old, tired, cold, distant, uncomfortable, and even a little creepy (what's with that weird grin?). Obama was youthful (loved the fist bump with Michelle), energized, passionate, at ease, and inspiring.
McCain's audience seemed like a bunch of extras who couldn't quite understand what the director wanted them to do. Obama's crowd was . . . a typical Obama crowd -- HUGE (30,000 estimate, including the thousands outside the building who couldn't even get in), determined, passionate, and completely tuned in to Obama's every word.
Just for fun, let's take another gander:
