Obama went straight to the meat of the subject while McCain avoided the meat and gnawed at the bone instead.<br><br>Obama cited relevant statistics for the decline in science in America and how he would work to get the US back on the technological-science track. McCain meandered about with generalities, nothing specific; completely unfocused.<br><br>Obama was quite verbose on Energy, National Security, Genetics, Stem Cells, Scientific Integrity, Research and Health. All, with the exception of National Security, are I-Don't-Care-About-That republican issues. McCain's responses are more like 30 second ads for TV and radio spots; all talk but nothing specific.Moad DibMon, 22 Sep 2008 10:33:01 -0000
