    One smart thing Obama did (and this may have not been a strategy, but i'm guessing it was) was to call McCain "John". McCain didn't refer to Obama as Barack even once, that i heard. Obama switched back and forth between "John" and "Sen. McCain". This made Barack seem more friendly. This also showed that Obama views McCain as a person, not just a candidate or a party. This gave McCain some humanity as well, which again reflects well on Obama for gracing him with that humanity.

    • I noticed that too. I think it was bothering the shit outta McCain too...TheBlueOne
