Who do u think won the debate? Barack or McCain.........

Obama. He was articulate, poignant, passionate, clear and level-headed. Hands down win for him. John McCain came across as a grumpy old man, and his inability to look Obama straight in the eye showed that he lacks clear vision in terms of talking to his adversaries in a clear and conscience manner and his answers were basically 'attack the personality'. To me, Obama won.

haha..so.mccain doesnt have a clear vision coz he didnt look at obama....geez....too much msnbc is bad for brain ;) who u been listenning to keith olberman and rachael  :)

mansion, the point that I was trying to make was that it shows his inability to reach across the aisle and to solve crisis in a bipartisan way.

Who ever wins the election, if they focus on these things then it is good for us else it does not matter to us.

1. Outsourcing should be reduced.

2. Bringing H1B from India should be stopped completely. There are a lot of qualified US graduates in US.

3. Jobs should be increased

Mccain looked unprepared and nervious. he kept repeating himself like an old man with alzheimer's disease.

 

"McCain needs a Cain"

Mccain used too many : senetor obama does nt understand or does nt seem to understand".  Mccain was focusing more into military, his past, trauma after war, and he was also saying he knows how to take care of issues related to war and veterans.  he was kinda emotional. 

so disappointed with both of them. I feel Americans are at loss this election no matter who wins the election.

McCain blinks too many times. It shows that he's either not sure about things, scared, or making things up.

ratobhaley ta psyco........logist po raicha hau.....

i am an avid democrat and given a chance i will vote for obama no doubt

on foreign plicy he routed out obama

i wanna some better prepared obama and other plan for afghanisthan than attacking pakistan

attcking pakistan will be as deadly as going to iraq

best of luck obama

 

I am with Obama. I would give tie for the last night debate! Maybe McCain was better on talking but not on the policy. He was reapeating the same politics of 'Scare and Rule.'

If you want to see more changes in the White's perspective towards immigrants, Obama is the best choice, obviously. I don't want USA that digs into too deep in other country's internal stuffs, instead doing otherwise. Anyway, Obama is likely to stop the unnecessary war expense and correct the economy. He got the better understanding, policy, advisors, and brain to resolve this issue. 72 is more than enough to get retired and cancer for 2 or 3 times! I am really scared now. I don't want HockeyMama in Washington.

Although McCain was using the phrase "Sen. Obama doesn't understand the fact that..." (which sounds a bit arrogant to me) every 10 minutes, Obama's arguments on important topics sounded more valid and firm that McCain's.

1) Economic policy: Most people would agree that Obama outplayed McCain in the issue of "economy" during the debate.

2) Energy policy: Obama's energy policy sounds more realistic than McCain's. Let's look at McCain's energy policy priority: oil drilling, nuclear energy and at the end comes other alternate energy: bio-fuel, wind, solar  in his list. To me, McCain "doesn't understand" the fact that even oil companies are after alternate energy (specially bio-fuel) these days. Does he know that BP has been funding 500 million for bio-fuel research to UC-Berkely, Lawrence Berkely lab and UIUC team? Chevron is funding $25 million at UC-Davis to develop affordable, renewable transportation fuels. ConocoPhillips has also funded $22.5 million research project at Iowa State University, with a focus on conversion of biomass to fuel through fast pyrolysis.The list can go on and on...Even if you start off-shore drilling right away, it will take at least another 5-6 years to get the very first drop of oil. And, United States has only 3 percent of the world's proven oil reserves. It's the time that US should think about moving away from "the country with less than 5% of world's population that consumes 25% of world's oil demand". McCain should think about giving a short trip to Iceland where all the public buses uses hydrogen fuel cells. If Iceland is too far, visiting Brazil would be another option where all vehicles run on 50% ethanol fuel. Regarding nuclear energy, how many nuclear plants have been established for energy production in last few years around the world? Very few....because the world is not ready for another "Chernobyl disaster".

3) Foreign policy: Although McCain has more foreign policy experience than Obama, he still belives in the "policy of alienation". He is not comfortable meeting the PM of Spain just because Spain wants to pull back its troops from Iraq, let alone meeting Ahmadinejad or Chavez. McCain didn't explain what he meant by "pre-condition". I don't agree with McCain that "sitting across the table for talk means that you are legalizing their acts". In the mean time, I have to agree with McCain that it was a "naive" remark from Obama that he would attack Pakistan in case it doesn't support in the war against terrorism. Obama did show lack of foreign policy experience with that particular remark.
