Oct. 15th, 2008 10:59 pmLooking about on the net, and having watched MSNBC's post-debate coverage, I'm somewhat surprised there hasn't been more reaction to this incident.
To me, the defining moment of tonight's debate came when McCain plaintively asks, "Zero?" below, and then sits, from 0:46 until 1:05, absolutely gobsmacked and at sea.
To make the obvious national security point: Imagine if this was an intricate negotiation, and Vladimir Putin surprised him as much as this does.
McCain's absolutely right -- the American people are being asked to make a risky decision.
Fortunately, we can vote for Barack Obama, instead.
