Just caught the end of this and McCain seemed to be doing a good job. Did anyone see the whole thing? Did McCain do better than the Obamanation?

McCain OWNED Obama.

bookmark to watch later. I did hear that Obama was a wreck. :) That’s good.

I think Obama got handed his tail! Obama made , what I think, were two big errors. Obama said he would not have voted for Thomas for supreme court judge because he lacked experience, (well hello kettle). The other was on abortion when asked when life begins. Obama said it was above his pay grade to decide. (If you don't know when life begins then you don't know when you are destroying life dummie).

McCain did very well !!

Looking forward to the debates !!

Obama can talk a good game but it is obvious there is nothing behind all that talk .....NO MEAT !!

In contrast, McCain showed love of Country and life experiences that has built CHARACTER & INTEGRITY !!

McCain's stories about his POW days, knocked the ball out of the park !!

Thank you SO MUCH for posting this! I missed it last night, and upon reading notes and such I’ve wanted to see it all for myself! LOL Glad to hear McCain kicked some butt last night.

Thank you for this...really thanks.

I was watching THE NOTEBOOK on the other channel and couldn’t get to break away often. When I did, it was first Obama.

His answers were thought out, calculated...void of too many of the vocalized pauses as usual, but he seldom looked at the audience or even the interviewer. HIs persona was cold....His answers, like the three most influential people in your life....(did anyone hear what mac said on this question?) was Michelle, his grandmother and Sam Nunn etc...pathetic...But what can he say? REv WRigth? Malcolm X?

I thought that the forum was going to bury Mac...but friends..he flourishes in these arenas.

His answers were quick, to the point, meaningful, funny, informative...He spoke to the crowd, animated wih his hands...a sign that he fully believed what he was saying and wanted to convince you too....

He had Warren smiling and nodding his head...

I mean, I have never in my life seen contrasting forum or debate when both people looked so exact opposite of each other.

Obama cannot possibly win on the issues... He can’t...

[nikos1121]

I heard that answer, ( what did mac say on both?)

How can you not have an answer to that question regardless of your beliefs.

I mean one could say it begins at conception which mac said immediately....Or you can say it begins when the baby exits the womb....

I mean, what kind of person is muddles in legalize on that question?

McCain’s answer was:

1) General David Petraeus
2) John Lewis (A Democrat Civil Rights leader)
3 Meg Whitman (Entrepreneur and founder of eBay)

Obama cannot possibly win on the issues... He can’t...

In case you haven't noticed - he isn't. Obama hasn't spoken about one issue in any more depth than a 15 second sound bite. Yet, millions of American voters are still fainting at his feet.

The McCain List.

My goodness! I sincerely hope everyone was able to watch the debate interview format last night.

John McCain decisively outperformed Obama
and struck a chord with his stong, unequivocal support
for conservative issues.

Hearing McCain on the Right to Life was well worth the price of admission,
where he clobbered a Babe Ruth-style home run!

wow

[TennTuxedo]

McCain impressed the hell out of me last night. He was very pragmatic and animated in his response to the questions asked of him.

Obama, on the other hand, rarely answered the questions asked of him and gave answers that "beat around the bush".

You hear the media say that Obama is chiseling a large swath of Evangelicals away from the Republicans. If his answers from last night are any indication, then the media is outright lying or the young Evangelicals have not been listening and are left leaning liberals.

Obama speaking to nation

Obama to nation

Obama-nation

Abomination
