Comparing the Campaigns (2 of 2)

First it was let Sarah be Sarah
Now, its let McCain be McCain
It seems to me that someone is trying to balance on a hotplate

What is the central theme of the McCain campaign? If you can answer me, please do.
Or better yet, what is the theme of the McCain campaign this week? I’m all ears.

Sincerely, if the candidates (McCain and Palin) consistently conflict with their campaign, so much so that spectating, and even some prominent conservatives ask the candidates to be themselves, something is wrong. Some of them even go as far as doing the unthinkable – bashing the McCain Campaign. There is simply no cohesion. And they ask, “Who is the real Obama?” Really?! Contrasting the conservativeness of McCain in 2000 and McCain 2008; and, contrasting favorability rating in Alaska, of Palin as governor and Palin as VP candidate. A fair question is, “Who is the real McCain and Palin?”

And frankly, I don’t blame their campaign. Giving my opinion on “Comparing the Campaigns (1 of 2),” I blame the leadership of that campaign – McCain and Palin. If they cannot adequately lead their campaign of a few thousands, should I really trust them to lead a nation of a few hundred million?

On the economics, compare their two campaigns, from how much they raised to how they were spent. How have they managed their finances?

On leadership, compare their campaigns again – compare their crowds. How have they lead their campaigns? I believe we’ve dissected that.

On judgment, Colin Powell, a Republican, said it all about the decision to select Sarah Palin (I’ll write about her also). Here is what he said

Anything else? If I missed it, say it.
