What does that mean? I don’t think McCain was being racist but I did see an air of indignation and or lack of respect to persons. McCain also was careful to call each questioner by name but for got to remember the young black mans name. I do hope that also will not be taken wrong. Overall McCain was much better in this debate as was Obama as well. I see this one going down as a tie. That one! What does that mean?

I mean, if Obama said "that woman" to Palin or Hillary, he would be ate up by every women's activist group. McCain is such an unprofessional and concentrates on the negative too much. He should have just called him a boy or "you people". Personal opinion. On top of that he didn't shake Obama's hand when he had his hand out - he was referred to McCain's wife. WTH??!??

You don't talk down to people if your trying to win there vote especially when it is broadcast live on every major news network in the country. McCain showed his true character at that moment.

Very little mudslinging. McCain-4 Too much mudslinging. Muddy, dubious ideas. Occasionally, they both dodged the questions. In particular, Tom Brokaw’s question about the Senior British General and Consultant’s statements, yesterday morning (our time) that the War in Afghanistan CANNOT be won by military might. That was annoying. I really wanted to hear a straight answer on that one. They both ran overtime. McCain was far to wordy, and not on point, a lot of the time… He kept slagging Obama off, which was unattractive. His attacks on Obama were, in some cases, known lies. He seemed very old, and 'erratic' at times. Obama was a bit annoyed, and let it show, slightly. He’s ahead, and I don’t think this will cost him. His health-care and energy-policy answers were on point. I liked the ‘moral’ point about ‘genocide’ — non-involvement diminishes ANYONE who stands by and lets it happen. I don’t know that socialised medicine would NOT work well in the USA. It has never been tried. I’d like to see ‘profit’ taken OUT of health-care in the USA. Obama didn’t answer the ‘Commodity’ question as asked. McCain didn’t answer it at all. That's too bad. McCain doesn’t seem to understand that there have been numerous ‘holocausts’ since the Nazi Holocaust. The Khmer Rouge in Cambodia… Rwanda… Bosnia… to name a few. For someone who was still trying the condescending 'Obama doesn't understand' schtick, he did a poor job, understanding the questions, let alone answering them.

I thought based on the statements I heard, McCain won as I was a bit disappointed at Obama's performance. But it's a good thing the analysts gave the debate to my favourite candidate.

In one breath he suggest the government buy up the bad mortgages, in the next breath he says we have to cut spending. So where is the money for the mortgage buyouts gonna come from? And, would this mean that those of us who haven't defaulted on our mortgages, will be compensated for the decline in our home value because of the mortgage meltdown? How about compensating us for our devalued retirement plans. Wow McCain, sounds like you're a big spender after all! McCain portrayed himself as an angry old man who contradicts himself.

CNN used to be the independent source you could count on to cut through all the bull and let the viewer draw their own conclusions. Now they come up with contrived excuses to make negative points against McCain (most recent example: "That one" ooooooooooh that's worse than the n-word!) and consistently say that McCain isn't doing enough -- yet they never acknowledge that McCain has been attracting more independents than Obama. I've been forced to turn off CNN and switch to that awful station FOX News just to hear an actual conservative opinion for once. I dunno how long I'll last, but I need a break from biased CNN.

All it means is that candidate, not this one. Jesus people, is that all you can find wrong with McCain. How about the comment that Obama lived on Food stamps but was able to go to the FINEST schools around. My parents worked and could not qualify for food stamps and I was forced to go to a school my parents could afford, not paid by the GOVERNMENT! That one. All it means is that candidate, not this one.

No matter who the Republicans elected as their running mate we would have lost. The Bush administration is disliked by to many people for any republican to have a chance. It is going to be fun with Barack Obama as president. The media outlets will actually have positive stories no matter what Obama does. I am honestly looking forward to that. If Obama messes up as bad as Bush the media will still find a way to praise him. I mean this in the most respectful way possible. I hope the election of Obama will show black people that we don't have it out for them. I hope they will quit their whining and realize that now things are pretty fair. If they work hard they will get just as many opportunities as a white person and sometimes more based on the color of their skin. Hopefully they will quit being so loud and obnoxious and learn that making something of themselves is kind of important. I hate to say it but Barack Obama has this thing in the bag.
