Straight Talk, For Reals

A thoughtful dad watched the first presidential debate with his eight-year-old son, stopping the DVR along the way to talk things through and get his child's reactions.

Here are some priceless quotes from the experience:

"Why is McCain so mad?"

"Why is he so old like Grammy?"

"Daddy, when McCain smiles like that (i.e., the smirk), I think he is really mad at Obama."

"I don't like it when he acts like that."

"Why isn't he looking at Obama? Barack looks at him. I think he is trying to be mean."

"When McCain talks it bores me and when Obama talks it excites me."
