The Debate
So I watched the debate. I thought both candidates did well and I didn't see any obvious gaffes on either side really from a what was said department. I got the impression from watching it though that McCain really doesn't like Obama. He never had anything polite to say to or about Obama and even seemed to be scowling a couple times whereas Obama conceded McCain was correct on several points and at least seemed to be paying McCain some respect. McCain's answers seems better enunciated and never seemed to stray off message while Obama's seemed be more nuanced. I think both of them had a couple questions that they "answered" by not answering the original question at all. I did like the question about what priority are they going to have to sacrifice because of the bailout (even though they both never really answered it, which unfortunately is what I was expecting). I've seen polls saying Obama won the debate, but honestly I thought it was more a draw myself.
