"Wasn't the order of their appearances decided by a coin flip?" Donno. But happy to take your word if you say so.... "If that's so, wouldn't Senator Obama have ended up with the advantage that they're insinuating Senator McCain was designed to have?" Don't see where anyone (in the posted comments) ever said that they thought McCain was "designed to have" some kind of advantage... Just that he happened to be in a limo (not in any 'Cone of Silence' back stage like Warren said he thought he was supposed to be) while Obama was speaking. Hasn't anyone ever heard of cell phones and Blackberries? :-) I suppose if a coin flip had placed Obama second in the speaking order, he could have always shown up late, too... (and watched/listened, or had his team do so, to live broadcasts while 'on the road'). <GGG>
