			<description><![CDATA[The word "maverick"? Loser.


The phrase "My friends"? Winner!


Russia? Loser.


Tom Brokaw? Winner!


McCain's Laugh? Loser.


Obama's stuttering? Loser.


Overall winner? The Daily Show. They're going to have a field day tomorrow with McCain's attempts to make friends.

			<author>(William Popielarz)</author>
			<description><![CDATA[McCain's last statement was pretty good. He didn't attack Obama at all, and he was heartfelt in saying that he needed to be the one to run the tiller. It was good. Overall, nothing big stood out. McCain didn't have that big defining moment he may have needed. Neither candidate really hurt himself]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[As an undecided voter who was raised conservative, the debate intrigued me. I am not a fan of either candidate, but I was actually more impressed with Obama in this debate.

What challenges we face in the future. Obvious, but true.


What he DOES know: America: Land of opportunity since 1964.

What's going to happen. What different challenges we face. Wait a minute, didn't Obama just say that?

			<description><![CDATA[The candidates were asked what they don't know and what they'll do to learn it. I'm interested to see how modest they are in their responses.

I personally believe both have LOTS to learn, especially regarding curve balls that will be thrown their way while in office.

So far, Obama has failed]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Sure, I would rather have a Beretta to take them out at the table, but we have to sit down with enemy leaders.  We can express our grievances there, but at least sit down!  I don't understand why McCain makes such a big issue about this.  It's as if sitting down is a microcosm of all diplomacy.  Not]]></description>

			<author>(Spartanblogger108)</author>
			<description><![CDATA[As the debate wrapped up, more than 80 percent of the students backed Obama. I agree. Obama just presents himself with more clarity and confidence. Not saying McCain wasn't effective, he just doesn't present his policies as well. That could be that Obama already has an enormous amount of support]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Obama kind of glazed over this question, saying his wife has a whole list of things he doesn't know, but used the time for his closing statements instead.

McCain did the same, saying he doesn't know what we all don't know, and also used it for the closing statements.
