I will say, however, McCain did a better job on it. Which makes him 45-1. Of course you'll have to count mumbo jumbo as an answer; "I don't know what's unexpected" uh... ya..... me niether.

Sorry, this is about the last question. "What don't you know and how will you learn it"

7. Obama basically said it's impossible to know
because Presidents often wind up spending their efforts on issues they had never anticipated. A decent enough answer to a silly question. A better way of asking might have been simply 'what are you weakest points.' If McCain were honest he would say the economy, since he's admitted that before. Obama's probably weakest on close relationships with world leaders. Although, I don't think it would take him that long to form them, most world leaders are eager to see Obama in the office.

9. McCain had a few minutes to get his talking points together...
Barack did a decent job of answering a very stupid ending question (they should have just let them give closing remarks). If you were watching the graphs on CNN Barack was top of the scale with the women and a little lower with the men while McCain was above the mid mark but barely.
