I watched...bout what you would expect. I was a little taken aback when Obama admitted he's been a Muslim this whole time and the Rev. Wright thing was a smokescreen.
And then McCain crapped in his hands and threw it at Jim Lehrer. See what you missed, kuz?
as funny as that would have been to see first hand, im sure ill catch it later. im not sure i want to. i mean... old guy dropping trou and pooping in his hands? eeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwww!!

for about 0.5 seconds you had me goin. I should know better.
well i watched this and i was really ashamed it went horribly. Obama got tooled and McCain just looked like a jackass. i dont think it was a waist of time at all i think that the debates are a quintessential part of the election and the outcome of the next president. however i thought that at this point everybody chose the wrong candidates to represent each party
In many ways, this debate played out exactly like I thought it it would. You have to consider the goals of the two men walking in.
McCain wanted to clothesline Obama on foreign policy, making him look weak and getting the news buzzing about McCains massive victory, to reverse his bad week this week.
Obama was specifically targetting undecided voters who dont want McCain, but keep getting viral emails from Uncle Bob about how he is a lunatic Muslim radical. He was above all else, calm, cool, and presidential in his approach. That was intentional.
If you look at it with those respects, its understandable why some are calling that debate for obama. But anyways, that task is done now, i would anticipate given McCains failure to KO Obama and Obamas mild victory in assuring undecided voters...they will both turn up the heat quite a bit at the next debate.
