Do you think Obama looked good interrupting McCain?

Do you think Obama’s facial expressions looked good in the split-screen?

Do you think Obama provided more substantive answers than McCain did, instead of just reverting to the blame game in place of actual solutions?

(Serious questions, not meant to be an attack, I’m just baffled by your take on the debate.)

I mostly listened, and thus didn't see that. If it was obvious to somebody not pre-conditioned to be irritated by it (i.e., any of us), then perhaps his effectiveness was lessened. But listening to it, I thought Obama did sound more authoritative than McCain did.

Of course not. But his Wall of Words made him sound a lot more informed and sure of himself than McCain did.

I'm a cynic about things like this. I think that most of the public will settle for the style, and won't dig into what was actuall said to see who won on substance.
