[SlowBoat407]

Obama is starting to raise his voice, in pitch and in volume.

[pepperhead]

Good God! Obama complain about the orgy of spending!

[defconw]

I LOVE SARAH! SHE ROCKS!

[plain talk]

McCain almost hit a triple but settled for a single by saying we should cut taxes but didn’t say that would raise revenues. now Obama talking about an “orgy of spending”

[JimSEA]

excsaberated

That works for me. :)

Notice no mention yet of foreign policy. All that prep time for Obama under the bridge.

[Dagny&Hank]

Obama,
Wrong that the President presided over spending.
CONGRESS presides over spending!

[mondonico]

Holy crap, Lehrer just said “Rule the country”. Presidents LEAD the country and serve our country!

I had the same reaction. Liberalism = Fascism.

[OCC]

This is a debate on foreign policy?

I'm not even sure its a debate. McCain is attacking Bush, not Obama.

[Momto2]

A Maverick of the Senate!!

Yeah - he mentioned Sarah!!!

[rintense]

Ok, enough of the Ms congeniality and cut spending crap. Move on, John.

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

McCain shoud say “at least I voted”

[exit82]

O setting up Mac re: Bush’s budhets and policies.

Mac responds: I have opposed President on many things—American people know me very well.

[ninergold3]

What is ticking me off is that McCain keeps referring to 0bama as “Senator” and 0bama keeps referring to McCain as “John”. Sooooooooo disrepectful!

[Political Junkie Too]

Hee-hee.

The governors were supposed to rule over the people of their states. The president was supposed to manage inter-state issues, commerce, national defense.

The president was not supposed to rule the country.

That's why Congress was split into two chambers, with the Senate being appointed (not elected) by states, so that states have a separate seat at the federal table.

Two senators debating. America shouldn’t need sleeping pills for a month. The economy is bound to suffer.

[Notasoccermom]

Finally national security.

[Tanniker Smith]

Isn’t it racist if you call a black man red faced?

Well, he is a pinko...

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

John is doing that,but he can’t sound like he’s letting Obama run the show and when you go just for tit for tat, you lose control of the debate.
