a thread to discuss the 9/26 debate

[holden]

Good comments, i agree with y'all!

The debate was pretty entertaining, in that comincally, neither candidate actually answered any questions specifically, but rather gave their canned talking-point responses. Especially brilliant was the final question, which turned into their closing remarks instead of sticking to the issue.

That said, Obama seemed much more confident and willing to engage McCain and called him out on various "facts". Granted, he got some mixed up, too.
McCain did seem a little whiny with his "Sen. Obama just doesn't understand" repetition. Sadly, some folks will fall for that. Age and experience doesn't always equal good judgement. Then again, a strong debaterdoesn't automaticaly equate witha good next president.
