An observation.....

Liberals tend to use emotion to sway people to their side. Conservatives tend to use logic to sway people to their side.

Agree or disagree?

I am not sure I would call the constant drumbeat of fear from the Bush administration and the Republicans in Congress logic, no.

Comparing Obama and McCain, the Democrat uses more facts and logic in his appeal than the Republican

Neither candidate, neither campaign, and certainly neither Party has been immune from distorted the facts to suit their purpose. I will give Obama and his campaign credit for doing that less often than his opponents.
