The debates are going to be huge this election cycle because there's no way McCain is going to look good here. He's no where near as charismatic and he comes off as a cantankerous old man. If he starts snapping at Obama then he's done IMHO because no way Obama rises to the bait and he's smooth enough to look like silk when he turns that tactic aside.
This is very reminiscent of Nixon/Kennedy in that regard.
