I thoroughly enjoyed the debate.  I was impressed with McCain, and I enjoyed Obamas performance as well.  This debate actually provided some much needed clarity on my part as to why I prefer McCain.  But Obama staked out his position well.  All in all I see a success for both men in the sense they expressed themselves well.......However, Im not sure that alot of "swing" voters actually swung on this debate but I think everyone probably came away feeling a bit stronger about the process.

You know what I find funny, some of you republicans on here always resort to the name calling, it's Osama Obama, or other things like that, yet I really haven't seen any democrats resort to the same level of name calling.

Oh so you missed his campaign mocking that McCain cant use a computer?  (Due to the severe torture and breaking of his arms to the North Vietnamesse in prison)

I think you see what you want to see.  Most liberals are all for negative ads...til they get them back.

One other thing, looks like most of the polls coming out have Obama winning the debate, and by quite a bit too.

Most likely because liberals are up late tonight smoking weed and drinking, while conservatives have tucked this nations future generation into bed and retired to sleep themselves.

Let's wait until early morning when the real working class awaken at 5am and the "Peace, Love and Dope" generation (and their nurtured childen/grandchildren) get up at Noon.

McCain was the one who said he wasn't going to go, then waited to the last min to agree to show up. I also don't think I ever said he was a coward, I said it looked like he was trying to "dodge" the debates. Also don't tell me how to talk about someone, when practically any post you have addressed to me has been some lame attempt at a personal bash.

I want to apologise for that statement..you did not post that and I retract my statement.

It was you your Democratic friend Dos Equis that said it.

I am not personally attacking you...just you liberal views.  Thank you

I call him The Obamessiah in honor of our Mainstream Media annointing him as the chosen savior of our nation long before the end of the Democratic primaries. They have prostrated themselves before him, covering their eyes so they might not be blinded by his celestial brilliance. They worship at his feet, they are his slavish minions.

He is............ The Messiah.

So what else can I call him but Obamessiah? Can't dispute the wisdom of the media elite, now can I?


McC? I don't want him for Prez either but I do respect the suffering he underwent in the Hilton. I served with two POW's and have heard the tales and seen the scars firsthand. So, no, I won't belittle him. Just don't want him in office either.

Yup. Us guys. Is there any doubt who we're referring to when we type 'messiah' in an obama thread? is there any doubt who we're talking about when we refer to the other guy as the old buzzard or McGoo or McCracker?

Disagree.. when pressed on what pet programs he'd give up in light of the crisis costs Obama waffled badly. McCain grabbed the initiative by going after the malfunctioning diseased alphabet soup agencies and getting rid of the ones that don't work and trimming the size and cost of government... bonus points for McCain.. Obama never even touched on the corrupt mess that government agencies have become. McCain came out of that exchange with the initiative.. and then the subject changed to foreign policy  

Sure, the agencies HAVE become a mess. But which ones and to what degree, are either going to cut spending on something that won't sit well with their party?

Plus earmarks, I bet there are A TON of wasteful ear marks but are ALL of them? I wonder~
