14. I wish he had brought that up after McCain cited the "Wipe Israel off the face of the earth" quote

I mean, what, it's ok for McCain to say that shit but not for Ahmadinejad?

18. "What you DON'T do with Russia is look into their soul."

[bdamomma]

20. Spain

and bomb bomb Iran

[FVZA_Colonel]

21. "Sung songs about bombing Iran."

Not just because of the sound-bite quality, but it really was completely true.

[valerief]

24. I loved that, too, but I thought I heard Obama say Iraq in error instead of Iran.

[FVZA_Colonel]

26. I think I heard Iran, but I may be wrong.

Even so, the point was still golden.

[Dinger]

23. "I Have A Bracelet Too"

Ryan Jopek would have been honored, and I'm sure his family was too. He's from Merrill, Wisconsin, a very repub area. Obama said it was given to him in Green Bay. It was probably bittersweet for the Jopek Family, but mostly sweet:)

[Clio the Leo]

27. oh yeah and what made it even better was me going "tell him about YOURS" before he said it! NT

[Dinger]

28. Oh Yeah, Same Here, As I Told It To Mr. Dinger Just Before Obama Said It

Made me smile.

[Liberal_in_LA]

25. "John, you lying bastard"

[Dinger]

35. Awwwww, I Like That : )

[Parker CA]

30. "JIM, I HAVE A BRACELET TOO." F-YOU McLOSER!!

[krkaufman]

31. The "first question" comment, on taking us into the wrong war. n/t

[MichDem10]

32. "You were wrong"...

on Iraq, etc

[StrictlyRockers]

33. "I have a bracelet, too, from a mother who asked that no other mother go through what I have.

nice

[NYC Liberal]

34. The line about him only being "the most liberal" because he was just voting

against Bush's crap.

[holiday]

39. oh yeah I loved that one. I also loved it because usually dems

don't take up for themselves being liberal lol

[Waiting For Everyman]

38. The Spain jab!

[democrattotheend]

40. I loved his response to the "most liberal senator" thing

When he said that just meant he's been voting against Bush most of the time. Touche!

[Iwillnevergiveup]

41. Well, I'm not exactly answering the OP's question,

but here's what I saw:

Barack a more commanding presence on the stage - did turn to McCain and attempt to engage him
Answered the friggin' questions
Did not go off on wierd tangents
Showed a lot more class - I don't think Barack would have mentioned the name on the bracelet he was wearing if McCain hadn't mentioned his
Focused more on issues - actually mentioned home heating oil in the coming winter months, mortgage relief, veterans, deregulation

I was happy to see him interrupting McCain several times and insisting on correcting his many false statements, but he's gotta pound away on his voting record - especially the war, the economy and vets. Barack gave away too much on offshore drilling and nuclear power. He's gotta keep in mind McCain never once said, "I agree with Senator Obama on......."
