McCain’s joke threw Obama way off his stride. just repeating “main street,” “healthcare,” “healthcare,” “healthare.”

[relee]

I was a bit worried about that Eisenhower story with the second letter and where McCain was going with that.

[tpanther]

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh bambi McCain just said he saw this train wreck coming for years!

How can he say we need to address corruption not just when there’s a crisis? That’s what McCain just asserted!

[af_vet_rr]

Obama got the audience reaction bump because of the flag pin ;-) (it is CNN after all)

[OCC]

Obama sure is stringing together a lot of incoherent/unrelated sentences.

[TomGuy]

Who is making the input for that graph? The audience can’t react.

Probably a group at a secure secret location. LOL.

[Gunder]

I agree, I’m bored. Why can’t these debates get fiery??

[USMA 92]

Obama will only hold those people that say something bad about him accountable. Can’t believe the lies out of his mouth. It is the problem of main street getting the no money down loans that caused this problem.

[LibertyRocks]

He REALLY should have nailed him on that... He had the ability to do it... He’s been trying to fix this for a DECADE at LEAST!

[khnyny]

McCain quoting Eisenhower and D Day was priceless. The man knows his history. The whole anecdote regarding responsibility hit home!

[steveo]

Main street drink!

[Moonlighter]

Was he even born then?

5 minute review ....

McCain: Looking forward and talking about the future.
Obama: Looking backwards and trying to pin blame on the Republicans for democrat obstructionism in Congress.

[kabar]

McCain still hasn’t raised the fact that he sponsored a bill to reform the the FMs. And why hasn’t he raised the fact about the donations to Obama by the FMs. He is being attacked and not fighting back.

[TN4Liberty]

So it was Obama who warned everyone about this. Who knew?

He didn't warn me.

[MaxMax]

Lehrer is trying to get Obama and McCain to argue. Trying to MAKE news instead of debate.

[txzman]

Mcain needs to stay on OFFENSE - Who Caused this Mess!!!

[Blue Turtle]

McCain will not attack Obama....but he is talking up America....a good thing. Let Obama go negative...it won’t bode well.

[jimfree]

McCain is coming across as a better debater. Obama is reasonably good but I hear an anxiety in his responses.

[tcrlaf]

OMG! THIS GUY IS JUST RAMBLING WITHOUT HIS TELEPROMPTER!
