McCain did a better job in some areas but in all the flash polls I saw he was beaten pretty handily.. especially when it came to the economic issues. Obama had a 20% margin in that area. Also, watching some of the dial tests going on, people (especially independents) were not fond of McCain's "that one" remark or his remarks on the government buying up bad home loans. Umm.. I don't want to get started on that issue, but that is absolutely stupid.
This debate however did nothing for either side. It was like one long stump speech for both candidates. I wish the campaigns would just say fuck the rules and let the two go at it for a bit.
McCain is in serious trouble. He knows it. He can't connect anymore and he's going to pay the price even more with his disdain and condescending attitude.
