Up Close and Personal: Debate shows what's right with Obama message

This article entitled, Up Close and Personal: Debate shows what's right with Obama message, implies that the debate between Obama and Clinton is going to be discussed. However, the writer seems to jump on a bandwagon that is headed for fair weather. The writers political views are scattered like useless fodder that will not yield substance. The writers criticism toward John McCain is biased, showing party favoritism. Although he states that McCain is concentrating on rebutting Obamas policies, he does not clearly interpret platforms and present open political views. This leaves the readier with an inability to grasp the articles essential point of view. "What’s right with Obama message," seems to be muddled in abstract, meaningless rhetoric. In order to achieve comprehension and lend simplicity to a statement, a writer must captivate his audience. In this case, the writer has done exactly opposite. He has led his readers to believe they will be reading an article about a debates points of view. Instead, he downgrades Clintons ability to challenge Obama. The reader is left without any clear definitions of the writers point of view. I read a condescending writer that is not an idealist, but a conformist that just wants to finish the paragraph and go to lunch.
