i thought it was pretty sloppy, but i think obama edged this one out. Alot of the time mccain would throw out references of him being a "maverick" and even give palin a shout out calling her a maverick as well. I thought some times it seemed like a mccain commercial opposed to it being an actual debate. I think obama stumbled on a lot of words, but managed to keep his cool for the most of it. What do you think?
Who won the debate?

I think people who side with McCain will think he won and people who side with Obama will think he won.
I thought it was a pretty good debate, the foreign policy part was interesting. Both argued their different perspectives very well.
I just wish McCain wouldn't ramble so damn much.

Neither. A true democratic Presidential debate would have included a wider spectrum of political parties.
Two shades of the same color folks.

Hard to tell. Nobody performed any big gaffes or blunders. It was very 'vanilla'.
One thing I noticed was the McCain's team was brilliant in their strategy in giving Obama the floor and letting him keep talking himself into oblivion. An ego-maniac of those proportions is bound to stick his foot in his mouth soon.
I loved the part when Obama kept listing all the wonderful things he was planning on doing as president. All I could hear is the cha-ching of money the longer his list was growing. He had so many wonderful goals with not one realistic method to pay for it all. I kept waiting for promises of root beer drinking fountains.

Cnn says "
McCain, Obama clash in first debate"
.... really now? they Clashed? Was obama jumping mccains ass with palin in the background praying 'please have a stroke, please have a stroke...'
Then again the media often uses the word Slam and what not when it comes to debates... what they call "slammed" is what most of we went thru in the 1st grade... if if they seen WF version of someone getting "Slamed" at a debate, they'd have to revise the patriot act to include verbal terrorism.

IF elected, she'd probably be the only vice president that guys would want to fuck, let alone find a bunch of doctored pictures her on google...
xomunch: might even be the only president guys would want to bone too, especially if you have to wonder whether or not Mccain would be able to finish his term if elected.)
I was watching some national news channel [nbc?] the other night and was listening to Palin try to defend why she would be good with foreign policy, and literally it was the stupidest thing I had ever herd.
Hot, sure. Smart, not in the least! If you want another idiot in the White House feel free to vote republican this year!
I'm not for Nadar, but this video is awesome (thanks Firelead)

But Dude!... she could kill a moose with her bare hands...
Well John Stewart thinks so anyways...
You catch that youtube video of her speaking to some church?
If not here ya go
YouTube - The Sarah Palin Church Video Part One
Who was McCain looking at? It wasn't the camera.
Why was he blinking so much? You'd think he was being chased by Pacman.
Side note: Watching Palin being interviewed by anyone other than Sean Hannity is painful. If she's a heartbeat away from being President, I'd be really scared...

Painful indeed... YouTube - Palin explains importance of Alaska's proximity to Russia
Based on that logic everyone along the Mexican border has excellent foreign policy experience... Cuz they are ... "right there".
That is pretty impressive, might piss off his supporters down at the depends factory though.
Here is a public poll that I found, not like it really matters at this point in the game though. Hell I'm not even sure how legit this site is, but its the only place where they broke the polls down into topics based on the major talking points.
