See the video of Ramey Ko of Asian Americans for Obama and Shandon Phan of Asian Americans for McCain giving closing statements at a sprited debate a few weeks ago at the University of Texas at Austin.
Click here for audio of last night's final Presidential debate between Senators McCain and Obama. Commentators seem to agree that "the gloves came out" and Senator McCain landed some solid body blows, at least in the early part of the debate. But whomever you think prevailed, one can't help but wonder if Obama's "oceanic" temperament throughout the last 20 months of campaigning might sway some Asian American voters who, culturally, might value that calm, that steadiness.
Lots of talk about negative campaigning in both. Joe the Plumber is the new Everyman. Still no answer from Obama about which of his plans/promises might have to go, given the economic crisis, if he were to become President; he seems to be standing by his "pay as you go" approach as viable.
