A draw, pure and simple. McCain was his usual strong self. Barry held his own. Unfortunately, this was supposed to be a debate where McCain buries Obama because of the foreign policy focus. That didn’t happen. Truthfully, it was kind of a bore. Kind of like a highly hyped heavyweight bout that goes the 15 rounds and the boxers hold each other for most of it.

McCain cleaned his clock. Obama looked defensive and out of his depth. All he had was the “8 years of Bush and McCain” strategy, and Mac turned it right around hime, implying Obama is stubborn like Bush.

I saw an entirely different debate... and so did the people that viewed it while posting on the live thread. McCain won hands down.. kristol even said so.
