Wait, so, if you agree with what the other canidate said, you shouldn't say so? You should hold it in and act stubbornly to be as spiteful as possible, and then fire false attacks, all the while not looking at your opponent, and maintain a scalding facial expression directed about 45 degrees below you're gaze?
How about a mature politician, who, in demonstrating his ability to reach across the aisle, shows that he can LISTEN to other people who may not agree with them (in a practical context, this would be republicans, or even leaders of other nations), incorporate their opinions, and then outline the differences he has with that person to make a point. That's usually how you debate, or infact, how you talk with someone who you may disagree with. Obama wasn't playing some immature game. He was being a mature person, and this spoke to his character. I think, that over time, this will appeal to people more than a stubborn-minded, immature politician, who wishes to rant and rave and throw immature diatribes back, simply to try to belittle that person. It really shows who McCain is, and it is NOT presidential. It only appeals emotionally to Americans who feel they need someone as misguided as he is, in adopting some ultra-patriotic life purpose to belitle every democrat, and everything liberal.
