Both Obama and McCain voted for this bailout that's going to bankrupt the country!

Palin has already been rejected by most Americans…and rightly so.

Obama is taking the high road! Not throwing mud like McCain.

I agree. Palin is a role model, for the Bush League Justice system (ignore the report that found she violated ethics code).

Senator McCain looks like he should be propped up in a casket. Very ghoulish looking tonight. He's really making no sense with his arguments.

God save us if Palin is our VP. God save us indeed!

She IS NOT QUALIFIED.

Obama is doing great.

McCain looks pissed, LOSER!

Dear Senator McNever read a History Book:
Persia and the entire gulf region was relatively stable
until the Brittish carved lines around the tribes and forced
them to live together. Biden's Idea to split Iraq into three
with joint oil revenue is the smartest solution, kind of when we
divided this country into states.

Joe Biden is qualified to be President. Palin zero!

This topic does NOT, repeat does NOT belong in politics! This is an individual right and should not be interfered with!

Don't Forget To GET OUT AND PHYSICALLY VOTE….Your inaction could push our country into darkness!!!!

The people of America are already rejecting the mccain Palin ticket

If Sarah is quailified to lead this Nation so is Bevis and Butthead…

I'm glad obama kept positive and didn't slam Palin quite frankly like she deserves to be. She is a complete mistake

Obama is cool and presidential. Not worth sullying himself by beating up the lady. McCain is ridiculous

Sarah Palin is unqualified.

Obama is too nice to say the truth that WE ALL know.

That RIght…Its up to me and I say Palin SUCKS big time and I'm offended by her presence in this campaign.

He said she excited a BASIN in the republican party.

He wants to help women making a decision that he wants to take away her right to decide?…

I wish someone could just tell me why McCain has a stupid look on his face. He keeps smiling like someone who does not know what is going on. You scare me John McCain you can lie better than anyone I know.

Palin is not qualified. The issue of Alaska Independence Party, abuse of power and ethics violations should have been brought up.

A Palin Vice Presidency scares the heck out of me. John McCain is 72 years old and has looks tonight like he could blow his stake and have a stroke at any minute. I don't want her a heartbeat away from thhe Presidency.

Does anyone notice how hard McCain is trying to "look presidential". He is so stiff.

I DIDN'T HEAR MCCAIN SAY THAT PALIN IS READY TO BE COMMANDER AND CHIEF? MCCAIN DIDN'T ANSWER THE QUESTION, HE SAID HE'S JUST PROUD.

ohhh the more i see mccain, the more faces he makes this is awful

NOW who looks presidential

old macsame is so ANGRY NOT EVEN CNN CAN HIDE THAT

he can not give one straight answer adn has not idea of numbers,
he is yet to mention

numbers, or anything that makes sense

OMG, she abused her power as Governor in Alaska - do we want another Dick Cheney in the form of Sarah Palin in the White House???

I can't imagine this woman sitting across from world leaders and telling them I don't like your question and I want to talk about ….wink, wink.

Reformer? She left the town of Wasilla $20 million in the hole and they were debt free when she took office. God help us all if she was our Vice President.

Obama took note from Hillary book on health care

7 months back he attack that

????????????????

Hillary 2012

I have to watch FOX after the debate it will be more fun
Sorry CNN

McCain should have listened to Biden - several experts recommended dividing the nation among the three muslim sects. Does McCain really think the last 5 years in Iraq were successful???? Arrogant.

Obama needs to stop McCain when he starts telling the audience what Obama believes. Argh.

She will be a Goog President a movie.
Holliwood needs Palin.

Though maybe it would have been better for Obama to duck the question, but I personally felt he should have flat out said no, not at all, it would have stunned the campaign…say no, then say she is a good politician, but not ready to lead this country.

And she is wolfully unqualified.

Most likely, McCain will drop as running mate her within a week….

SHE IS NOT QUALIFIED!!!!!!!!!!!! Come ON! this is very annoying!!!!! This women is in NO WAY fit to be the commander and cheif PERIOD!

Interesting how McCain chose to slam Biden instead of validating Palin. He's disrespectful, that grin and his grunting are making me nervous.

What can you say - one looks and acts like the future, the other looks and acts like the past. The choice is clearer than ever.

She has qualifications?

McCain also referred to her as a "Breat of Fresh air,but quickly corrected it with breathe of fresh air.

Sarah Palin scares me. Secessionists sympathizers messed up my neck of the woods once. I don't want them to screw up the country!

Obama has never been south of the border????? What??????

He wants to talk about free trade and immigration and wants the Latino vote for but he has never been to a Latin American Country???????

I can not beleive it??????????????

Latinos Now For McCain

Sarah Palin is an insult to every woman in this country. Ignorant, mean spirited, uniformed and horribly unqualified. Never!!!

This American person thinks she's a disaster and would NEVER vote for a ticket she's on. As a woman I'm offended by her choice. I won't vote for just any woman!

Here's your fine - Zero (on health care)

Zero?? (mccain.. oh the priceless expression on his face)

Zero.

hahahha McCain's got this dumbfounded look on his face.. it's great

I agree Senator Obama, and we have said with a commanding voice: SHE'S NOT QUALIFIED!

Obama struck GOLD ON THAT COMMENT. Majority of Americians don't think Palin is qualified. Ot is a fact…she don't got the chops…she doesn't know anything.

he won't comment on Palin because he's not qualified either.

and didn't the German's invent the AUTO industry???

Thats an easy one…not qualified!!!!

Palin is a detriment to McCain.

I was brought up to believe if you don't have nothing nice to say don't say anything at all.

There is NO way Sarah Palin is qualified to be Vice President.
She is clueless, corrupt, and guilty of abuse of power in her position as Governor.

The American people have pretty much already decided this issue. Polls are clear: Palin is not remotely qualified.

Obama takes the high road when he could have crushed McCain on this subject. McCain of course drags Biden under the bus. Not presidential Mr MCCain.

i think he did the right thing.
If you don't have anything nice to say.. .don't say anything

What is the deal with the grunting from McCain.

Unqualified. I will not recieve my vote.

Joe the Plumber is more intelligent than Palin.

I'm so glad that he didn't once smear her name.

Obama is responding respectfully and thoughfully and maintaining his composure, most likely increasing his status amongst uncommitted viewers who are paying attention.

McCain (who is undoubtedly a brave man who served his country in the miliary, thats not in question) is all over the map. He jumps from one unrelated subject to another. He's trying to link such abstract things like obese children to capital gains tax increases. He's trying to touch every point in a desperate attempt to do ANYTHING to increase his status, but it just makes him look dyfunctional and unfocused.

I think we are witnessing John McCain's turning point. Sad to say, but some people will remember this poor performance and that may overshadow a decent Senatorial career.

Supporter of Gravel.

Obama is right - for both sides. We will see what the people want in 13 days.

I think he had a very good PC answer. Man the things he could have said though!!!

I am the American People. Palin is not a role model and she is not qualified.

that was a very polite comment. Everyone knows the truth

VERY well played - he needs to avoid slamming her for the vegatable she is so his supporters don't turn on him for going negative

God forbid something happens to old John McCain…can you actually fathom a SOCCER-MOM running the country?? - reminds me of South Park The Movie and the song BLAME CANADA (by Kyle‘s mom)!!!

I'm curious-is McCain saying he's wrong just because he didn't agree with him?

It would be hard to say she is qualified……it would be a lie

That's because Obama is a gentleman. McCain is a brute.

America knows Palin's story. Knows she her ethics guilt. Knows her lack of understanding on foreign policy, economic issues, and women's issues.

Palin is Hot but V President she is NOT

I think we are smart enough to reject her
