...racial issue? It seems that people after the debate that were interviewed said that they really liked Obama but he just didn't really put forth that many details of what he stood for.

I watched the debate last night and I walked away with a clear picture of where Obama stood on health care, war, Pakistan, economic crisis, and taxes.

Do people say "He's too general" to avoid admitting that the true reason they aren't voting for him is because he is black?

I just don't see how this generality argument can still be used.
 
I don't know really. CNN had a group of undecided voters after the debate....more than half felt that Obama had done better, clarified his policies, behaved and looked more presidential....yet when they asked who the voters would choose if they had to choose today, 3-4 of the people chose McCain. I think people are fearful of change, fearful of something new.....That's why Obama must stay well above McCain in the polls....to make up for the fact that some percentage of people won't vote for him based on race or fear.
