McCain can't match week's best speeches
By DAVID BAUDER

excerpt....

Also Thursday, Obama took on cable's kingpin, Fox's Bill O'Reilly, in a taped interview his show is stretching across four nights. Not only did Obama take time away from the GOP convention with his Fox appearance, he spoke to a big potential audience: Fox's convention viewership has been bigger than any network.

The two men talked about the Iraq war, dealing with Iran and the war against terrorism.

After the segment, O'Reilly brought two commentators on to ask for an evaluation of their performances. "You both get an 'A' in my book," said Jane Hall, an American University professor.

For Obama, he now avoids having cable news' most popular host criticizing him for not consenting to an interview.

"He's a tough guy, Obama," O'Reilly said. "I looked at him eye to eye, he's not a wimp. He's not a wimpy guy."
