It wasn’t a debate, but hey, that’s just me being picky.

I haven’t been a big McCain fan but he impressed me tonight. He has so much life experience to draw from and Nobama doesn’t. By the way, anybody see Michelle there? I saw Cindy.

McCain answered "General Petreus" to a question of which wise people would the candidate consult with, while Obambi said his wife, his grandma, ugh, ugh. Krauthammer said McC won that whole question right off the bat.

I was shocked BHO’s constant drift back to himself. Watching him one might appreciate his deft attempts to blur the moral significance of an issue but one could not say they had a good idea as to what he believed and what he would do as a consequence of his beliefs.

Surely, Senator McCain’s answers and his directness must be appreciated as world class examples of who he is and what he believes. I also note that Senator McCain made good audience contact while Senator Obama seemed to focus on what the audience might or might not think about this or that issue.

I totally missed Obama and don’t have a lot of cable channels. Is this being replayed on the net that any of you know of?

No....I prefer Alan Keyes.

Who, when last he faced Obama, made the guy look like William the Conqueror.

I agree! McCain outshined Obama for sure! Did you notice that Obama was asked to name which SC Justice he would not have approved, and McCain was asked which SP JusticeS he would not have approved?

And Obmama naming Justice Thomas as the one he would not have approved.......Guess the real racist could’t bring himself to name one white justice!

Was that part of Obama’s Ft. Hood troop meet/Oahu Invitational Marathon?

That was the prior engagement that kept them dodging months then telling them right before they couldn’t meet with the troops. Same day, he was on the golf course.

don’t get me started that 83 lifetime rating is pure garbage.

He has droped down to the low 60’s high 50’s lately.

Who gives a poop about his lifetime acu rating if he backs off on the federa marriage amendment or protecting our borders from illegal aliens.

lifetime ratings are meaningless if contradicted by present day ACTIONS.

Just beat it! If you are a women, then go have Obama’s love child. And if you are a man, then go share a limo ride with Bambi.

CNN’s Gergan: McCain will be a tougher opponent than Obama thought. He thought Obama was “humble”. He also says McCain has powerful stories that connect with middle America and that is what people want.

Obama will not do any debates after this, he will say no time, he needs to be on the road campaigning.

I believe three debates already have been scheduled.

The Obama camp will have a mini teleprompter installed in his glasses so he doesn't come off as a doofus again

I have no idea what Obama said...but it was vague

CNN just replayed the ‘faith’ answer, same vague Obama,

David Gergen admits McCain is going to be a much tougher opponent, just loved the look of despair Gergen has
