There were abortion protestors on our campus. They had a giant poster of an aborted fetus. It was extremely disturbing and inappropriate. Both Hillary and Obama are pro-choice, but that doesn't mean that McCain would actually do anything about the abortion issue. Maybe he has an opinion on it, but I think that the abortion issue will go untouched because of much more important issues that our nation is dealing with right now.
Wow. It was intensely strange to watch that knowing that I could get to that room in a less than 5 minute walk from where I'm sitting. It was also really weird seeing a bunch of my friends in the audience. 2 of my friends and I stood outside for over an hour trying to find out if there were any extra tickets. There weren't, so we just watched it from our room on tv. So strange. I am in that room every other day, and Obama and Hillary were there. Weird.
Anyway, I'm not so much of a fan of any of the candidates, but I do have an opinion on what was said. I think Hillary did a much better job defending herself and making a case for what she believes. I felt Obama was a bit sloppy. Hillary did a very good job of articulating the way she felt on different issues, especially abortion. Obama just seemed like he didn't quite know what to say.
I will say more about this later, but I have to study for my Spanish oral exam tomorrow.
