[SKKY]

Excellent breakout of important debate points, providing a letter grade for each of them.

The internet is ruling my ass tonight.

2. I agree that McCain is used to hearing applause when he spouts his b.s,

and it definitely threw him off when the audience didn't applaud last night.

3. Glory hallelujah!

I have not watched the debate yet, but I Tivo'd it for tomorrow. I was too nervous to watch it until I got some reassurance that our guy did okay. Wow. Sounds like he exceeded expectations. Thanks for posting this.

Excellent breakdown of the debate!

8. Nice, but some of the descriptions don't go with the grades he assigned. For instance, he praises

Obama's Offense, then gives him a B on it. Based solely on his descriptions, I would have given McCain a C- overall and Obama an A or an A+ overall. People who are purporting to be objective always seem to be harder on Obama than on McCain, even Factcheck.org. Still, he did give our guy an A- and McCain a B-, so still a clear win for Obama.

PS. Recommended.

9. And that is what's important, no?
