Has Obama responded it McCains allegations of him increasing taxes 95 times or is he doing what the normally Democrats do & just take it up the ass.

All I seen waht McCain mentioning that lie when answering a completely different question & Obama did nothing to respond back.

I actually really like the "zen" question.

Notice the audience laughed at Obama's joke and hated all of McCain's.

Both candidates' disregard for the UN Security Council exemplifies all that I think is wrong with the USA.


Still, Obama is acin' this one.
 
So Sarah Palin is watching the debate from a pizza parlor in Greenville, NC.

I'm flabberghasted. Why on earth would you eat at a pizza parlor in one of the finest regions for barbeque in the entire nation? Total faux pas, McCain deserves minus points in the debate for his VP's poor taste.

You can't attack every one...you'll appear to be on the defensive. You have to choose your battles and hes done a good job of that tonight...IMO

That'd be hilarious.

Seriously. Lot's of "uhhhhs" in there for guys who are supposed to/should be top notch speakers.
That's what happens when you think up answers instead of regurgitating them. It's not like he does it all the time. But really, nobody gives a shit.

That's Speech 101. There no reason to do express a long "uhhhh" though. It makes you sound amateur, even if subconsciously. Think, then talk.

You're right, they would come across much better if there was a long pause before each answer.

As much as I like Obama, I've always felt he's been a little weak in public speaking. He's come a long way since the primaries though.

Damn Bams is working his magic on the Ohio uncommitted women. Practically stayed up the whole way once he mentioned "raised by a single mother"
