Crediting McCain, huh?

 

[Funky Papa]

Ok, try this. Listen to nothing of what they are actually saying. Focus on tone of voice and the occasional sound bite. Now you're watching the debate like ~70% of Americans do.

This, people, read this.

 

[Saint Gregory]

I don't see what the hell is wrong with you Americans. Obama agress with McCain when the two agree, he makes complete and accurate answers, and is quite honest. I don't see how he's losing, unless you're going by pure presentation, which is why you guys have such problems in the first place.

Bolded and QFT.

[so_awes]

Missile defense isn't proven!

 

[Juice]

McCain won't say that we need to improve our standing in the world. Wut.

 

[DeathbyVolcano]

God call out that bullshit, fuck off

 

[pizzapizza64]

To an uninformed American, the more confident, assertive, and least rebutted candidate wins the debate.

sigh.

 

[X26]

He's doing pretty good in this section, at least

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

Jesus Christ. Fear mongering, references to Reagan, and "DOESN'T GET IT" AGAIN

 

[Son of Godzilla]

OBAMAMA DUDDNT GET IT

 

[-Kees-]

What the flying fuck?

Missile defense didn't/doesn't do SHIT.

 

[Instigator]

McCain getting weaker.

 

[Xeke]

Oh boo fucking hoo. You people crying for drama are the problem with the country.

Ninty, Reggie really won me over with the I'm gonna personally find Bin Laden and kick his ass and not take his name line, simply incredible. Fils-Aime/Mario 08 bitches.

 

[Anno]

The green line is certainly tracking the blue line more than the red.

 

[GitarooMan]

Back to Iraq, not a good idea.

 

[sprsk]

Obama keepin it cool. Looking more presidential than McCain.

Obama giving credit to McCain

Oh my God. He's agreeing with his opponent. THE WORLD IS GOING TO END!

 

[pxleyes]

Obama is raping in the audience reaction on CNN during this section.

 

[mre]

No he didn't. He just talked about preconditions.

You're right, he didn't explicitly state that. Let me back off that statement slightly then. He stated that the President (himself) should sit down with the head of Iran and then implied that Kissinger's statement backed his statement up.

 

[GhaleonEB]

That's clearly McCain's meme of the day.

 

[Kildace]

I'm expecting that Obama will have a very different attitude during the next two debates.

 

[echoshifting]

How can anyone think McCain is winning this, what is wrong with you guys. Still jittery from that convention bump huh?

 

[Chiggs]

McCain getting weaker.

He needs some juice.

 

[besada]

Every time McCain talks about military action, he completely loses the independents on the CNN real-time polling.

 

[Rorschach]

McCain's condescending/scary low voice scares me.

 

[maximum360]

McCain flatline.................

 

[Acerac]

Your truth makes me sad. Did nobody else watch Bush debate?

 

[Juice]

I hope Obama closes the debate with a reference to looking forward to Letterman tonight.

 

[JzeroT1437]

There's an obvious difference between Obama's debate material and his obviously scripted closing comments. Obama's a speaker but not a debater. His demeanor weakens and he gets antsy. It's like when Nixon sweated too much on public TV against Kennedy. You can call it a non-issue, but it weakens him in the public's eyes.

 

[Askani]

Oh my God. He's agreeing with his opponent. THE WORLD IS GOING TO END!

"Dogs and cats...living together...MASS HYSTERIA!!"

 

[Mgoblue201]

There is a chance that McCain comes across as a bit condescending, so there is a risk in asserting himself too far.

 

[Alcander]

Go go green line!

[grandjedi6]

Back to being a tie I'd say. Obama can still take the lead

 

[reilo]

If I have to lower my IQ in order to understand who won this debate, then I'd rather not watch at all.

 

[Chiggs]

How can anyone think McCain is winning this, what is wrong with you guys. Still jittery from that convention bump huh?

I'll say this: get some perspective, because you clearly lack it. A lot of Americans will eat up what McCain is saying simply because of his delivery.

 

[harSon]

Obama keepin it cool. Looking more presidential than McCain.

Bullshit. Obama's going to take a 20 point nose dive in the polls.

 

[Keylime]

"Dogs and cats...living together...MASS HYSTERIA!!"

That's my line! :lol

 

[Rewrite]

Great answer so far.

 

[Saint Gregory]

Obama is raping in the audience reaction on CNN during this section.

Have you noticed how little the Dem and Ind lines diverge? That's very bad for the Repubs.

 

[HolyStar]

Obama needs to stop being nice. WHY would you be nice and be agreeing with someone who has so much bs in their arguments. Obama needs to stop this in the next debates. He is making it seem like McCain's arguments are more gold than crap which is why everyone with knowledge on debating knows is bad.

 

[USD]

General Petraeus, General Petraeus!
Oooh General Petraeus!

 

[The Librarian]

If I have to lower my IQ in order to understand who won this debate, then I'd rather not watch at all.

It's worth it!

 

[pxleyes]

Bullshit. Obama's going to take a 20 point nose dive in the polls.

only 20? over 9000!

 

[Milabrega]

This is a slam dunk.

 

[dasein]

When you're going third you tend to have a different psychological perspective on the debate one with a favoring candidate would not have
