Why can’t they just accept the fact that obama was obama and John McCain was John McCain?
McCain was himself. Didn’t need to cheat.
obama was himself. Didn’t have teleprompters with someone else’s words to read from.
Simple solution. Invite Obama to another forum like that where McCain goes first. The more of these that Obama and McCain appear at, the more Obama will have his clock cleaned.
Liberals think of cheating when they lose because they cheat every chance they get ... they expect cheating like a wino longs for a bed in a brewery.

The left, especially those in “the media” all appear to be tinkling down their legs. Their error in choosing a candidate is starting to become more apparent.
Haven’t seen a drubbing like that since the Cheney/Edwards spanking.

WOW! McCain lost the coin toss and Obama CHOSE to go first? THIS MEANS OBAMA WAS IN ON THE WHOLE PLAN TO MAKE MCCAIN LOOK GOOD BY GETTING HIM THE QUESTIONS FIRST!
LOL!
Most voters didn't see the “debate”. Most voters don't even know the event happened. The important thing is two fold:
1. Politically aware conservatives who DID watch the debate but had concerns or even animosity toward McCain were reassured.
2. The Uh Uh Uhbama camp knows they have a big problem on their hands.
The fact that video of the “debate” is going to show up on youtube and be watched far more than the actual live event is a bonus.
It's all good. :)
Everyone knows the idea of a “Cone of Silence” was just a joke anyway. It’s from Get Smart.
McCain is an honorable man, a former naval officer, he would Never Cheat.
Right on! Cheating is SOP for so many RATS they think everyone does it.
In his official correspondence to both campaigns, Pastor Rick Warren provided both candidates with information regarding the topic areas to be covered, which Barack Obama acknowledged during the forum when asked about Pastor Warren’s idea of an emergency plan for orphans and Obama said, “I cheated a little bit. I actually looked at this idea ahead of time, and I think it is a great idea;”

obama’s problem was not that he didn’t know the questions; it was that he didn’t know the answers.
Love your choice of caps!
What the **** sort of crack are they smoking at the New York Times? Did they REALLY believe that there was a “cone of SILENCE”? Are they SERIOUS???
Hey morons, McCain listened in on his shoe phone! LOSERS!!
The Democrats nominee admits to cheating, and the NYT choses to NOT report this, but instead to report that McCain MAY not have been in a “cone of silence”!
good one
Correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t McCain get asked additional questions that Obama wasn’t asked because Obama took so long to answer everything?
Somebody call the FEC...
Does McCain know the questions ahead of time every week when he gets up in front of a live audience and takes questions?
These idiots have no clue who they are dealing with.
This could all be taken care of by Obama agreeing to meet McCain in Town Hall Meetings, face-to-face. Then, we could see if the Faith Forum was a fluke or fundamental.
