I’m a teacher too. All the faculty is dim. I tell them “ Both men are wonderful and we are lucky to have them”

They don’t even like that.... but the kids hate the preaching Mexican and white.

McCain did well on the actual foreign policy stuff. He finished very strongly and I really liked his smooth familiarity with Afghanistan, Russia, Iraq, Gen. Petraeus.

McCain delivered the biggest a**-kicking I’ve ever seen in a debate.

I don’t think even he can tell us what he means!

One thing that grates - perhaps because I’m older than Obama - is his incessant focus on himself and the “advice” and “warnings” he says that he has been giving to people with years more knowledge and experience than he has on the subject.

It just serves to call attention to the fact that he is such a novice in a dangerous world with few leaders as young as he, or as inexperienced, imo.

McCain Stomped him.

I was right when Obambi did Berlin.... I’m right now. Bambi lost and is a fool.

Bill Kristol: McCain got under O’s skin. He was visibly irritated, anxious, frustrated.

There’s a way people from around Toledo, Ohio speak, which splashes over into Michigan.

People say I have a Cleveland accent, but my ancestors left that area 140+ years ago.

I cut off most of my words unless I concentrate.

It’s ok for you to voice your opinion here, this isn’t Missouri, but just be a man and come clean from the beginning. Don’t pretend to be something you’re not and hope to gain acceptance.

Up your's too!

I have been a Freeper since '97, and I am a hard core conservative.

My opinion is that Obama kicked McCain's butt tonight and it wasn't because Obama is right about anything. McCain just didn't do a good job.

He sounded like Leftist Light as opposed to a conservative.

But feel free to flame away and act like an idiot all you want.

....and people really compare Michelle’s style with Jackie Kennedy.

Please.

Cindy McCain is the quintessential first lady. Michelle looks she should work at the DMV or fast food place.

Again, the last point ... Obama keeps pimping that Bush is stubborn and fixed in his ideas.

And McCain trumped Obama on that point, how Obama himself, in his stubborn and fixed ideas that we “failed”, the surge was the wrong idea, etc., that Obama himself is exactly what Obama pimps about Bush - stubborn and fixed in his ideas.

And that is the problem with Obama - it is McCain who is flexible and Obama, well Obama is “just like Bush” - stubborn and fixed in his ideas, and thus not ready to be President.

Great job McCain. I’m sending you more money right now, you did the message good. Great job.

“McCain got under Obama’s skin” and it was “visible” according to Kristol

“Obama on the offensive all night” but “smirking” according to Juan

Matthews said McCain didn’t look presidential but o truly did.McCain didn’t look at o at all he just hunched over the podium. Annnnndrea mithchel agreed and then almost looked depressed that o didn’t bring up the kitchen table issues( hey mom, what’s for dinner)

Listening on XM Satellite 130 - POTUS.

Normally they are very liberal. They are saying in pretty strong terms that McCain wiped the floor with Zero.
