Just wondering how FReepers are reacting to the debate. I didn't see a thread devoted to the second debate.
(Excerpt) Read more at msnbc.msn.com ...
I’ve wondered that myself.
I would like to see a town hall with all four there together, that would be fun to watch!
Obama made some missteps, too.
thank you all for your comments. good night, and a good night to all.
Cindi McCain is gorgeous.
McCain had to win this one, hands down.
He didn’t.
We all lose.
cindy is not only hot, she rocks!
Chill. The burden of proof is not on Mccain.
Maobama hasnt done anything either. This at best is a draw and thats good for Mccain and certainly not Maobama.
You may all disagree but that is the truth.
Wait....Am I seeing and hearing this correctly. Obama did NOT say he would bypass the UN to take action against Iran if they invaded Israel? HOLY CRAP HE DIDNT ANSWER! BIG MISTAKE BIG MISTAKE He didnt defend Israel!
I disagree
“My Friends, I know how to do it” was disappointing tonight.
Sarah is a wonderful breath of fresh air, but she is not a miracle worker. You can not, to quote an old saying, make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear. McCain is what he is an old tired, worn out look term Senator who can't hold a coherent thought together and doesn't think well on his feet. Sorry those are the facts.
I hate to be a defeatest, but he hardly got to 2nd base. But Obama was the same old same old, too. Brokaw had to slap him down at one point. Right now they're saying about the Holocaust; it wasn't on point at all. Michelle looked nice and gracious, don't know if she got a hug or not, get the feeling he's distant with her; he's the star; she's a standin.
It's easy to sit here and say what McCain should have said, but he really dodged that question about energy and went off on a tangent. You can develop alternatives in garages, but you sure can't develop nuclear energy there. Cindi McCain is gorgeous.
Yes, he gave her a nice hug.
It ain't over until it's over. I don't think either one is up to the job. The nation would not accept Palin at this point, she could take it, but I don't want four years of trashing her.
There really wasn't a whole lot of energy on either side, and it didn't seem like the audience was energized or enthused either.
Tomorrow the talking heads and, more importantly, the blog, will discuss content.
I was not impressed. The only thing I liked and the only place he connected was his final statement. Thats where he was real. I am still hopeful America is not stupid enough to vote in Obama but it will be a tough ride here on out.
The problem for our side is that with no enthusiasm, which I think you are right on, we leave the field to the energized Black and youth vote and the get out the fraud, er vote efforts in the big cities. There has never been any enthusiasm for McCain and nothing he said tonight will change that.
Boring debate...
Cry for our military. We may never recover from President Obama. If you live in the Southwest, prepare to become Mexican citizens.
you know that was my sentiment exactly I remember Ross Perots vp “Who am I and what am I doing here?
