    on the "negative campaigning" issue.

    Too little, too late, though.

    How did you think he won that? He is whining about some t-shirts. The man sounds like he is about to cry because Obama is ahead in the polls.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Speaking of virtually lost causes. Dodgers basically in as much trouble as McCain.

    Yeah he's winning the debate so far.

    Obama is trying to go around the question of the negative campaigning. McCain is hitting him left and right on that issue.

    Look at Obama's face when McCain is telling the truth about Obama.

    It's a damn disgrace that he didn't agree to do more debates. (town hall meetings, or any other kind of meeting)

    And with the answer to the Ayers/ACORN softball, McCain's campaign is officially over.

    McCain's the one who refused to do Lincoln-Douglas style debates.

    It was hilarious to me how John McCain tried to exaggerate and lie about Obama's stance on taxes and the economy. Obama just looked at him and shook his head, lol. Does John McCain really believe that with the economy the way that it is that its time to leave things the way that they are? LMAO.

    John McCain: "Sarah Palin should be president because she has a down-syndrome baby."

    This has been the best debate so far. By far.

    3 debates for the most important position and job in the world is not enough IMHO. 10 would be the minimum to get to really know the candidate. McCain was willing to do it, Obama was not. Simple as that.

    But the mainstream media spins that fact around, and turns it against McCain, like everything else they do to him.

    McCain challenged Barack Obama to a series of town hall debates. Obama countered with challenging McCain to Lincoln-Douglas style debates. McCain declined, so they did neither.

    Both have done town halls on their own. No Lincoln-Douglas style debates though. McCain was willing to never debate Obama past the FEC debates.

    McCain is nailing the nuclear power issue. The graphs on CNN are pegged at the top.

    Just pick up a newspaper, you'll get far more details out of that.

    Debates are just an outline of a candidate's plan. They're meant for the general public, such as the 45% of adults who can't even name the three branches of our government
