It's more just a terrible question. No one wants to say they're not going to protect Israel, but Israel's such a wildcard that you can't say you want to fully support it no matter what.

10/7/2008 10:31:20 PM

What don't you know?

Obama: Well unexpected challenges blah blah...but what I do know...

lets see how McCain dodges this question

10/7/2008 10:31:27 PM

i just loled at scrimpin'

10/7/2008 10:31:30 PM

the fact that Iran is funding Hezbollah and Hamas makes them terrorists.

i like how they surrounded michelle with normal looking white people

10/7/2008 10:31:50 PM

THOSE PEOPLE

10/7/2008 10:32:15 PM

McCain get his last licks. He's going to need to leave this on a high note.

10/7/2008 10:32:47 PM

Well someone who tries to instill fear in someone to reach an ideological goal is considered a terrorist....I'm pretty sure that Achmidinijad saying he wants to wipe Israel off the face of this earth counts as a terrorist threat...

10/7/2008 10:33:10 PM

haha mccain just called americans stupid

at least he was perfectly honest about that

10/7/2008 10:33:14 PM

I think McCain gave a better answer here.

Kept with the Zen feel, too.

sarah palin is a terrorist?

McCain is rough.

The GOP bitterness will reach new heights this week.

10/7/2008 10:33:51 PM

pretty solid closing by mccain

10/7/2008 10:34:33 PM

I think Brokaw just won the debate

10/7/2008 10:34:34 PM

I thought McCain ended on a much stronger note than Obama... but Brokaw definitely took the cake.

10/7/2008 10:34:40 PM

hahaha. tom needs the teleprompter

10/7/2008 10:34:41 PM

Well that was fun. It was utterly pointless, but it was fun.

10/7/2008 10:34:45 PM

damn did you see john mccain jump out of the way

that's his military training

That has been so mistranslated and misquoted that it is repulsive.

10/7/2008 10:35:15 PM

You know what....if I have explain to you what a terrorist is then I'm gonna go ahead and cry for the future

10/7/2008 10:35:19 PM

haha they were in his way...that was pretty funny

10/7/2008 10:35:40 PM

nice heartfelt finish mccain

not 1/1000th as repulsive as Ahmadinejad

10/7/2008 10:36:43 PM

who saw mccain just snub obama on the handshake

10/7/2008 10:37:02 PM

Not surprisingly, Obama did better on social issues and Mccain did better on foreign policy.


I don't know why people thought mccain would be better at this format. He looks like a zombie trying to move around. Mccain was also too petty this time.

exactly. those who were planning to vote for obama will do so, and same with those planning to vote for mccain.

these debates change the minds of 0.01-0.1% of all voters.

10/7/2008 10:37:06 PM

What the fuck? Did you see the ending? Maybe I saw this wrong but Obama put his hand out for McCain to shake it and he didnt?

10/7/2008 10:37:30 PM

Obama just got a photo op with Dwayne Wade

10/7/2008 10:37:33 PM

Brian Williams is awesome guys.

I think everyone can agree on that.

i am no fan of the guy. i hate him as well.

but you can't just attribute some quote to him falsely which is so frightening (the quote) that it takes this guy from a repulsiveness factor of 1,000 to 1,000,000.

that isn't the least bit fair.

What would you do if McCain knocked Obama out cold.

10/7/2008 10:41:28 PM

^Smile

10/7/2008 10:41:39 PM

McCain's such a sore loser.

Is that the kind of childishness we want in the whitehouse?

i think that would be a little more of a campaign killer than Howard Dean's "bee-yah!"

10/7/2008 10:42:40 PM

When McCain most likely loses, it will be his own fault

10/7/2008 10:43:06 PM

No he will cry recount

That he's so painfully out of touch.

Hey Republicans, maybe it's not too late to roll out Zombie Hoover?

10/7/2008 10:44:31 PM

This pretty much sums up the debate and the election.

10/7/2008 10:44:32 PM

obama is like jesus ... we know about his parents and where he was born ... then all of a sudden hes the middle aged liberal savior attracting masses of poor people by making good speeches filled with impossible promises that will never happen in this lifetime

*I'm voting for McCain disclaimer*

I think Obama won the debate but let's be honest, this format wasn't any different from the other debate except that they sat on stools and walked around and received questions from somebody other than the moderator. None of the questions were unique or interesting and only gave the candidates another opportunity to repeat their platform.

The questions were presented in a manner where the candidate could just sound off his same shit each has been saying for months (Obama: "8 more years...", McCain: "I am experienced.")

I'm not really saying McCain would have wiped the floor if the questions were any different but let's not give Obama any extra credit for winning McCain's preferred format.

10/7/2008 10:45:01 PM

That one

10/7/2008 10:45:12 PM

I think this election will be a lot closer than some of you are thinking. There are a bunch of democrats out there that will NEVER vote for Obama.

I wouldn't call it a snub.

Obama sticks his hand out, Cindy walks into it, Obama shakes her hand. McCain, Cindy, and Obama then all share a moment.

10/7/2008 10:45:27 PM

I thought he has been falling ever since that crappy speech with the green background.
