[Gold Metal Flake]

1. Now where were we? Oh yeah -

[pink-o]

21. Just over on MSNBC and CNN websites

81 % to 16% in favour of Obama on the MSNCB poll. CNN comments tilt totally to Obama.

Sooo happy they aren't buying what McLame/Failin are selling!

[Gold Metal Flake]

2. the important thing was I had an onion on my belt,

[Chovexani]

8. lmao

5. Last question

[travelingtypist]

6. Brokaw, let Obama finish his answers.

You Fucker.

[Gregorian]

7. Obama continues to rightly bring up alternative energy.

This is seriously bright. In many ways.

[WinkyDink]

9. Brokaw basically detests Obama. He just cut him off. Giving McCain the last response.

[liberal N proud]

15. That is how I know I am hearing a republican

They always interrupt

[WinkyDink]

Excellent observation! They DO, don't they?! Irony: They're the blow-hards.

[spanone]

11. what don't you know, and how will you learn it?

[moineau]

25. i donj't know how to fix this lousy debate format...

[skygazer]

26. I don't know why anyone would vote for my idiot opponent

[paparush]

51. Remember when Bush was asked what mistakes he's made.."Um..I can't think of any."

Asshat!

[AnnieBW]

12. WFT kind of question is that

What don't you know and how will you learn it?

[BuyingThyme]

28. That question came from [email protected] .

[Neshanic]

13. Zen-like? Oh Tom, we had no idea.

[Dukkha]

14. what don't you know? McCain can fill a warehouse!

[Liberalboy]

22. oh thank this s almost over....Obama won hands down!

[ladym55]

that's a modest estimate

McCain could fill the wilderness of Alaska

[AldebTX]

17. Loved Obama's Answer To What He Doesn't Know

That was classic.

[knixphan]

24. yep.

[AldebTX]

53. Obama Won

No Question.

This was NOT a game Changer for McCain.

[crispini]

18. That was an excellent response. He was so funny. :)

[beac]

19. WTF??? Zen question??

What I know is Brokejaw = worst moderator in debate history!

[PaDUer]

33. You betcha! n/t

[Neshanic]

20. 50 bucks McCain brings up his tenure in Vietnam.

[beac]

29. Suckers bet.

[Neshanic]

37. Can't blame me for trying.

[AbbeyRoad]

[liberal N proud]

30. He will through POW in there

[PaDUer]

78. Sounds like he needs oxygen..

like he's gasping...what a frigging idiot..he's going to Cindy for meds now.

[flvegan]

23. Obama is NAILING this last question.

[AwakeAtLast]

39. You betcha! ;)

:D

[54anickel]

44. Beautiful, tears in my eyes again. Damn he's good on his feet and I believe you can

only work like that when it's genuine

[SemiCharmedQuark]

27. Why didn't they accept my question? "If you could be any type of cloud, what type of cloud would

you be?"

[donco6]

It would be better than that last stupid question. n/t

[beac]

40. Who will win the Super Bowl and why?

32. The audience member questions were the best thing about this "debate." n/t

[complain jane]

34. Obama's taking this question and hitting it over the moon.

[geekgrrl]

35. OK Obama just brought me to tears. He's the REAL DEAL. nt

[susanwy]

36. Last Q from a Rumsfelf fan?

"There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know.
There are known unkowns. That is to say, there are things we know we don't know.
But, there are also unknown unknowns. These are things we don't know we don't know."

[Liberalboy]

46. Obama has won

[susanwy]

91. agreed

:toast:

[ryanmuegge]

38. McCain didn't provide a SINGLE specific tonight. NOTHING he said was substantive.

It was all vague, visceral cliches about alternative energy and job creation.

[opihimoimoi]

76. McNada is void of Carne...no beef...no substance, no credibility

[L. Coyote]

114. McNada was the void tonight.

[liberal N proud]

41. Here comes the POW I was a POW

[Myrina]

42. oooh, not good to dodge the final question, Barack ..

:( That's the last thing people are going to hear, the first thing they'll rememember/talk about. Crappity crap.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

55. he answered it well

[Myrina]

109. .. maybe i changed the channel too soon ...

... when he started in on the 'my mom was a single mom, i was raised by my grandparents' which had nothing to do with the question and which is his pat stump-speech ending ... was a :wtf: moment for me ...

[City of Mills]

88. "Tom, my answer to that question Depends..."

...

[renate]

120. I thought he should have said something about his advisors

It's one of his many strengths that he won't just have yes-men and yes-women around him... if he doesn't know about something, he'll ask people who do.

Oh well. If he thinks of it later he can always work it into a campaign speech--and I think he should, because it's such a huge contrast with Bush's style, and look where Bush's style got us.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

43. yeah McCain doesn't know!

[flvegan]

45. Dance Johnny, dance. You've got shit for an answer.

[54anickel]

56. Fear, Fear, FUD vs Hope

[BlueStater]

50. McJerkoff got the last word in the previous debate as well n/t

[SemiCharmedQuark]

52. "We'll be talking about countries we don't even know where they are on the map"

[demo dutch]

He's talking about himself

[AwakeAtLast]

64. He only has another few minutes left - he's letting out all the gas.

:D

[crispini]

67. I know, what the fuck was that?

:wow:

[speedoo]

69. But Palin can see Russia from her house, you betcha!!

[Mist]

70. Gramps does that all the time already. nt

[AwakeAtLast]

54. GOBAMA!!!!!

:applause: :applause:

:woohoo:

:bounce: :bounce:

[City Lights]

58. mcnasty admits he's been sucking the government teat his entire adult life. nt

[Mist]

59. McGramps mentioning "new and different challenges" just highlights how

old and out of it he is. Bad move.

[lcdnumber6]

60. mccain is aping obama's answers on the family

[liberal N proud]

I know .....

Is there anything he doesn't tell us that he knows?

[bdamomma]

61. and John you are happy about that, cause you do not relate

to us. STFU, John.

He is so full of it, John Shut up.

will he bring up POW.

He has a steady hand???? I don't think so.

[pink-o]

62. Oh, McLame, you don't know where any country is on a map!

You're Miss Fucking South Carolina--remember the Iraq/Pakistan border??

[paparush]

63. McCain - I don't know what I don't understand (or something)

[knixphan]

"I know what it's like"

...to marry a beer heiress...

[beac]

79. And screw around on her with lobbyist twinkies!

[crickets]

65. Obama nailed the last question nicely.

Humor, humility, nerve. McCain is spewing a rambling series of bromides.

[L. Coyote]

66. "I think what I don't know is what all of us don't know ... so what I don't know is

what the unexpected will be ... "

"I know what it is like ... I believe ... I believe ... "

Oh boy, that was a zinger in wordiness nonsense for a finale.
Yo John, it's not a language fireworks show!! Try not to blow it up! :rofl:

[beac]

Get ready.. POW coming!

[AldebTX]

68. Obama Won This Debate

Hands Down.

[moineau]

93. you can't compare apples and oranges. mccain is just sour grapes and an absolute fool. obama? presid

[SemiCharmedQuark]

71. NOT IF MY LIFE DEPENDED ON IT, MCCAIN!

I would never ever ever ever vote McCain.

[Motown_Johnny]

72. Put Country First And Drop Out McCain!!!

[frickaline]

73. McPOW POW POW POW

Did I mention that I was a POW?

[crispini]

74. Line on CNN indicates BORING. heheheh

[Dem2theMax]

75. I believe in this country, I believe in my record, I believe I'm going to

crap my pants and cry like a baby the second I get off of this stage.

[GoesTo11]

77. A steady tiller hand wouldn't crash so many airplanes!

[Haole Girl]

80. McLame blocked the camera

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[MorningGlow]

:puke:

[valerief]

119. Gregory must have sore knees. nt

[bdamomma]

89. little stepford wife Cindy comes out.

are you guys watching C Span John did not even shake Obama's hand, Obama shook Cindy's hand.

[Tatiana]

90. Michelle interacting with audience members. Cindy standing there looking lost. n/t

[Neshanic]

97. Cindy. " Here are some coupons for a buck off a sixpack of Bud."

[beac]

104. She'd better make those for KEGS if she wants to buy any votes!

[AnnieBW]

92. Michelle is actively engaging the crowd

Cindy is following McSame around like a puppy on a leash.

[Myrina]

94. OMG Cindy standing like Carol Merrill, Michelle talking to the crowd.

:wow: What does that tell ya about who really gives a shit?? JEEZ.

[Gregorian]

95. EW, McCain's wife is icy cold..

[Neshanic]

103. Neptune's moon is warmer.

[WinkyDink]

107. She has such delicate claw....hands.

[City Lights]

96. David Brooks gives the debate to Obama.

:7

[geekgrrl]

101. yeah, I was shocked. NOT. nt

[beac]

99. ha ha! NO ONE wants to have their pic taken with McNasty!

[WinkyDink]

100. Anybody catch that last handshake bit? McC ignored Obama, who had to turn to CINDY to complete it.

[AnnieBW]

105. We just played it back

It looked more like a miscue than deliberate.

[WinkyDink]

I hope so. But it's easy to "not see" with one's peripheral vision.

[moineau]

111. yes he refused his hand and gave him over to cindy! typical mccain attitude. he hates obama.

pooor slob

[AldebTX]

102. Michelle Will Be an AWESOME First Lady

[Mist]

106. Obama meeting some of the audience, and their smiles are genuine. Gramps, you lost. nt

[paparush]

108. Was everyone there given a disposable camera? Huh..guess so.

[Gregorian]

110. Yay, Obama signs an autograph for a woman in the audience.

[paparush]

112. MSNBC mentioning the "THAT ONE" line as a major gaffe

Also mentioned the fact that McCain wondered if the audience member had ever heard of Fannie and Freddie

[Mist]

113. Now Gramps can go home, change the Depends, and tie an onion on his belt. nt

[Gregorian]

115. Now he's posing for photos. It's obvious this crowd adores Obama.

[Overseas]

116. Can't handle David Gregory so I'll check in here

and do some quick polls because Obama won that debate handily.

[WinkyDink]

117. The audience there is LOVING the Obamas now!

[bdamomma]

118. On C Span Obama is greeting the audience

smiles on everyone's faces. I don't see McCain he bailed out quickly.


C Span is showing Obama just walking around shaking everyone's hand, and McCain is gone, now is this enough to show to people how this man McCain does not relate to the American people, pass his bedtime.

[NYC_SKP]

121. kick

and why not?
