Ugh, but she just said that “Obama has sealed the deal with the American public” or something like that. Good gosh, if we elect him, we will deserve what we get. We r stoopid.

There is no way Joe the Plumber is voting 0bama! : )

He is very much against 0bama’s tax record as well as his tax policy.

Nothing new with the media reaction (including Fox News) to the debate tonight -- a debate which McCain clearly won and which, I think, resonated well with Americans who are very reluctant to elect a radical candidate to national office.

McCain will prevail in the election and, of course, the media will be hard-pressed to hide their disappointment. We all know that McCain's opponent is not just B-O, but the entire media, now disappointingly including Fox News.

Seriously. Are they worried that if BO wins FNC will be yanked from the airwaves like conservative talk radio undoubtedly will be? Just trying to preemptively suck up and protect themselves??? Whatever it is, it sucks!!

It certain does! What's worse is that I'm a diehard Special Report watcher and I used to love the panel. Lately, I can't stand their guts! It's like they're all living in La La Land or something. Up is down, black is white, 1 + 1 = 3, yada yada . . .

Damn you John McCain. You accepted the nomination as our candidate and you ran a lame ass campaign and obviously did not bother to prepare for debates. You probably though since they made sure you got the nomination your mainstream media buddies back in the “Straight Talk Express” days when they followed you around and showed you all the affection you could handle because you were being a pain in the republican administrations neck. We all knew what was going on but obviously your ego preventing you from seeing and accepting the truth. Now the entire Republican Party has to pay for your ego trip. So I say again, Damn you John McCain for losing this election for us.

Fox in the tank. I find it something that Hannity is NEVER ON when the debates are over... Fox definitely in the tank. Their panel is consistently against McCain. I’m boycotting all news. I’ve had enough b.s. to last the next four years.

I don’t think McCain won the 1st two debates, but he kicked butt in this debate. I cannot believe Fox!

I took a lot of heat here on FR after the first debate for saying that Obama won, hands down. McCain did slightly better in the 2nd one. But I agree with you: McCain at the very least TIED in this debate, and if you take out all lies, he WON handily. I disagree with ALL of the pundits, every single one of them.

While McCain is not the most articulate candidate, he won nearly every issue (if you are not out looking for taxpayers to fund your goodies).

“People WANT to vote for McCain, but they just needed to see someone who acted like he wanted the gig. He did exactly that.

Fox knows what side its bread is buttered on. They’ll come back around.”

Thank you so much for that reassuring note. I felt he did fantastic. He hit him on many angles that really mattered. McCain looked presidential, Obama like a junior mumbling senator. He really got him on ACORN...twice...he brought up the connection from Ayers to the board that gave him funds to his own group funding ACORN. THAT to me was enough to NOT vote Obama and win for McCain. I truly feel that McCain will get the voters and that to me is more important than a win. What gets me though is the 30 minutes ads Obama is doing. I hope people are sick of him talking by then and don’t watch. I can see Palin but not obama. My worry is the Obama camp is not saying how they will use that 30 minutes. Is it full of supporters....music....a telethon for Obama...or what....Oh well...I am sure McCain will have a good comeback and not let the voting end at these 30 minute ads. Maybe next week the October Surprise will be an Obama indictment in Rezko or ACORN. If it’s going to happen it better be soon ..IF Obama got in he will fire Fitzgerald and he has also said he had plans to go after Bush for war crimes...with a Dem Congress and Dem Senate. OH God help us.

Obama will destroy this Country. I just hope the poles are wrong and McCain and Palin pull it off.

I can't believe it -- even Fox and the entire panel say Obama won the debate, even Krauthammer said it!!

Yeah, hopefully the American people will weigh in on this. As for Krauthammer he's a Washington Post employee I wouldn't expect any different. Obama handlers sent out a Talking Point for the MSM consumption on the debate over 12 hours ago. Drudge exposed it.

I know what I saw. McCain won and I'm hoping over the next few days that his victory will be apparent. It happened that way with the Saddleback debate as well.

I think McCain won this completely.

Absolutely. I expect this kind of white wash on MSNBC - not Fox. I dont get it - let's see what Hannity has to say next.

Well, we already know how they’ll spin it. So, their opinions really mean nothing. They had Obama winning before the debate even started. Hahaha. Clowns.

"You're wrong it is not $12,000 per person."

You're right. I meant to write "per family," but wrote "per person" in error. When he said $12,000 per year, I almost fell over. I'd like to know what health care plan he's talking about that is that expensive.
