Battle On Spending


Source accessed at 5:53 pm on September 27, 2008



This article was strictly about the debate and what each candidate said. At the being of the article, they were just shooting off quotes from the debate and how each candidate fired back. It was mostly all about the economy, which is the biggest part of this election. I thought it was kind of funny when McCain said, "Senator Obama has the most liberal voting record in the Senate,... It's hard to reach across the aisle from that far to the left." Which I agree with; if we have a president that is so liberal, or one sided, how is anything going to get done?






The article then moved to foreign policies, with Obama criticizing McCain from following the lead of Bush and getting ourselves into this mess. To be completely honest, the article stopped there. There wasn't any one-sidedness or framing in this article, it was just straight facts and what each candidate said regarding certain policies. For me, not watching all of the debate, it was very informative and let me know what went down. I am glad that I am able to have a resource that is open-minded and doesn't have that many biases.
