McCain handshake snub

Re: McCain handshake snub

  • As you know, McCain and I aren't on the best terms tonight, but I really don't think he saw Obama's hand there.

  • C&P of what I said below:

    You know how when you're walking toward someone and you step aside to let them pass, and they step aside to let you pass.. and you do that awkward little dance?  It looked kinda like that (but the handshake version) to me. 

    This is a non-issue.

  • Hmm, maybe--but it seems like you definitely shake hands after a debate, right? ?Maybe just an oversight, but a really rude and forgetful one.

  • Meh.  I think the "THAT one" comment was much more offensive than a kind-of-sort-of-awkward-didn't-mean-to-miss-your-hand moment.

  • I don't think so.  JM patted BO on the back, they had that awkward hand dance, and both of their attentions were diverted elsewhere.  It really doesn't seem to be something to get worked up about.  There's so much else from tonight to get worked up over Wink
  • Very true. ?"That one" was awful.

  • I have to agree that he probably didn't notice or didn't realize Obama wanted to shake hands. The "that one" comment was disgusting.

    I was in a knitting class last night (yeah, I'm a dork and I'm comfortable with that), can I get some context on "that one" please?

  • Probably not a big deal. I thought it was weirder that he left immediately and didn't stick around to talk to the audience.
