        You have to take most 'polls' with a grain of salt because most are extemely biased. As long as McCain is in the neighborhood, it is a toss-up (McCain to win).

          This debate is a townhall format though
          McCain generally does better in this setting
          Obama seems to avoid them

            from what i've heard, obama has done close to a hundred "town halls" during his campaign, i think he'll be f.b.!

              I've watched a few on C-Span. Have you?
              He'll need to actually answer the questions and not avoid giving straight answers tonight because of the media coverage
              In the events I watched on C-Span he was evasive and really didn't answer questions directly

              it wasn't town hall at all.

              Pretty puny questions.

                I was bothered more by the sound bite answers
                You can't really get a complete picture of the actual positions of the candidates on issues in 1 or 2 minute answers
                These debates are a waste of time

              Although McCain is a great leader, and a real hero, I have found his debating skills not that great. So I do not expect him to rise in the polls from this debate. If he does it would be quite surprising.

            Ayres and ACORN are both becoming a pain in Obama's azz now. McCain is talking about Ayers today, maybe he will bring him up tonight.

              if he does, he won't get much leverage off it. the ayers connection is tenuous at best and ayers alleged activities took place when obama was a child.

              and obama can always bring up keating, iran-contra & deregulation.

                Sen Obama's best strategy, and the only one that seems to provide lasting impact, is to paint McC as the reincarnation of Bush. Personally, I don't buy it: McC seems to me to be a better person and also a better politician (one of the few times I can use the word in a positive sense).

                But to the extent the Obama campaign can convince the public of this, his chances improve.

                  "Sen Obama's best strategy, and the only one that seems to provide lasting impact, is to paint McC as the reincarnation of Bush."

                  This has been their game plan since the "change you can believe in" failed with Bidens name being brought into the picture. Now he's only got namecalling, attacking Sarah Palin and "paint McC as the reincarnation of Bush" strategy left. What a way to win the presidency, huh?

                ACORN would be a great subject for tonight. They are having a party in Vegas now!

                  Wasn't brought up, thank goodness, would have been suicide for McCain to do so. As an aside, don't you notice how Obama disavows any knowledge/relationship with anyone that is controversial AFTER he started campaigning? If he's elected it's kinda scary if he reestablishes those relationships.

                  If it has not been said already it is probably worth noting that at this time in 2000 Al Gore led Bush by 11 points in the polls...

                      You see, abntv?

                      You could tell the libs that Bill and Hillary robbed a bank today and a lib will always find a way to spin it by saying that he was planning on giving the money to the poor or something ridiculous and idiotic...

                      People like Cleare will NEVER be convinced otherwise that Barack is wrong for the country....You could tell him/her that Osama sat on many boards and jump-started his career with a known terrorist, Bill Ayers....Hung out with a radical american-hating Reverand for 20 years....sat in his pews and claimed he never heard the white-hating, America bashing speech that Wright had been known for for many years.....

                      I know...I know....Guilt by association....That's the libs new spin on this....But one fly in the ointment that needs to be mentioned....Not only did Barack sit on many boards with Bill Ayers, but Barack was given 50 million dollars by Ayers not for the schools that Bill Ayers talked about, but to radical organizations like ACORN....

                      So there is more than "guilt by association" here.....And I will say this again until I am blue in the face....When you are running for office or think there might be a chance of becoming the next president of the United States, you don't hang with people like these....

                      If I was running for office and hung around with KKK members in my youth, maybe went to a few meeting but never burned any crosses or got arrested...What do you think my chances are for becoming President of the United States ? Slim to none ? Probably...Yet, for some reason, Barack Apollo Obama gets a pass...He gets a pass from the media, he gets a pass from liberals, and no one seems to give a damn....

                      HE'S RUNNING FOR THE MOST POWERFUL POSITION IN THE WORLD FOR CRYING OUT LOUD !!! These questions need to be answered before we hand over the country to this loser....

                      I can see why he wants to meet with ahmadinijad and chavez now...That's where he's most comfortable....Hanging around with terrorist and thugs....

                        point a finger at me and there are three pointing back at you. stop projecting your own fixations on me.

                        you are the swallower and spewer of spin, not i. i can tell by your talking points. you seem to lap up any conservative bs you hear and take it for gospel.

                        all the questions have been answered, obama has been fully vetted and the majority of americans don't have a problem with his name, his former pastor or his long ago association with an alleged weatherman who's crimes were committed even longer ago.

                        lets talk keating, or iran-contra or deregulation.

                                I think that is the only vote that matters. the "college" needs to go.

                          Yes abntv, I pointed this stat out to a co-worker today. Exactly right. And further, the democrats have been ahead in many races on to lose to the the Republican candidate.

                          Very worth pointing out. Indeed!

                          PS. Don't kill any moose's out there in Alaska . Pretty please with sugar on top?!

                            Bush led all through October, the only recent President to make a turn around in October was Reagan in the 1980 race against Carter.

                          Care to cite that abntv? Bush led Gore all through October, he had a 2 point lead on Oct. 6, 2000, cited by my link.
                          It is probably worth noting that we don't elect a President with a popular vote, so national polls don't always give the full picture anyways.

                          McCain needs to put the spotlight on Obama. As long as Obama is in the spotlight people will be paying attention to what is being brought up. If people are paying attention to McCain nobody will know about any of these issues.

                            mcsame/pain haven't a hope in hades, hence the distractions of "paling around with terrorists" and his middle name and what his former pastor said once.

                            while mcsame/pain's speeches and advertisements have become scarier and scarier..."just who is this 'barak hussein obama'??? obama has been calmly addressing the issues...like the economy and iraq.

                            typical rovian scare tactics. news for all youse...

                            it won't work this time.

                            I'm tired of seeing polls.....they do nothing for us.

                            From what I've been seeing the original bump from Palin has worn off and things are falling back to normal, if not going worse. Lots of things have been being said by Palin that flat out scare people. Obama seems to be gaining a solid edge and its going to be interesting to see if he can hold the lead. McCain is going to have to preform very well in the debates if he wants to have a chance come November.

                            After watching the first twenty minutes of this debate, Obama's going to run away with this election. I think Mccain is a decent person, but a horrible candidate.

                            Nighttime; and the 'Circus 2008' is closing.

                            The circus booths are shutting down, while happy customers wander down the boardwalk, towards their cars.

                            But Wolfie2007 still shouts from his carnie stage,
                            See amazing McCain the sword-swallower, as he forces down his own throat, the incredible Bush blade of Death! ...

                            A family passes, their kids holding giant Obama teddy bears.
                            They yawn sleepily and keep on walking.

                            Wolfie2007 shouts louder,
                            - See the amazing the terrifying predator from alaska as she bites the hide off a moose!

                            No one stops.
                            The last twilight fades;
                            it's night;
                            the circus closes,
                            It is over .

                                I got really tired of hearing Obama give the same answers tonight that he did in the last debate.

                                This was no town hall meeting.

                                Two term state Senator, 12 years teaching constitutional law, a term as US Senator.
                                There's lots more, but that definitely qualifies him as a candidate beyond most. What do you want?
                                Heck, just google him yourself. That you haven't already speaks volumes.

                                    yes Grrr, and he's run a brilliant campaign to win the presidential nomination. then there is the long list of his legislative accomplishments.

                                    in fact, it has taken a lot of courage, determination, discipline and stamina for him to have made it to where he is today.

                                    on the other hand, it appears mccain pretty much squandered the blessings he was born with. naughty at the academy and accumulating demerits, while obama made the harvard law review.

                                    it's too bad too, because i used to respect mccain and if he'd have won the primary in 2000, i would have been sanguine. (voted for Nader, didn't particularly like gore) and i think he would have been a far better president than bush. but he let himself be swiftboated and then sucked up to the slimeballs who did it to him. i haven't had a shred of respect for him since.

                                    McCain hasn't been within 5 points in any real polls all week, and after watching him tonight, I doubt it's going to get better tomorrow.

                                      You're not just repeating yourself, you're pasting yourself. I can tell by the duplicate misspellings and mangled punctuation.

                                      All I heard from Obama tonigh were his and his campaign staff's canned talking points. He sounded like he was recorded a few times. I've heard them so much myself I can repeat them verbatim.

                                        But not John. He changes his whole platform every other day, depending on what he ate for breakfast, and with whom. Heck, three weeks ago he was so confused he started running on Obama's platform. What's that tell ya?

                                          I can't believe that the american people are so stupid to vote for someone who has no significant accomplishments in his political life. But the Germans did and look at what they got. Hitler

                                                  Obama supporters are supporting nothing but a man with flowery words and no accomplishments.

                                                  i'm amazed we all watched the same thing and saw it all so differently.

                                                  obama was by far the most thoughtful, coherent and responsive of the two candidates. if you watched the focus group meter of undecided voters on CNN, obama pegged it out more often and for longer duration.

                                                  this is a man of substance, energy and compassion; not an angry old guy who's main accomplishments over the last couple of decades led directly to the economic meltdown we are all experiencing.

                                                  as for experience, only an incumbent can claim appropriate experience. when the mantle of the world falls on your shoulders when you take the oath of office, all bets are off. there isn't enough "other" experience in the world to compensate. further, in my view, "experience" is code for cronyism.

                                                  aren't you conservative posters fed up too? the republican leadership has been making you all kinds of promises for the past 28 years...have they delivered? have they outlawed abortion? have they improved our economy? have they helped the poor and disadvantaged? do you really feel safer?

                                                  if you answered yes to any of those questions, my conclusion is that you must be completely deluded.

                                                              i watch all the debates going back to kennedy, lbj, nixon et all.

                                                              and what do you really expect. that one of the candidates will actually say something practical. it is doubtful that either candidate will be able to fulfill any campaign promises, so it's best to stay on message and hope for the best. that goes for both candidates.

                                                                  besides, it looks like a little puff of wind would knock mccain over and we wouldn't want that to happen...it would leave us with palin, (or "pain" as i prefer to call her; because she gives me one.)

                                                                    I am not what you think I am. I hate ignorance and the CON. I don't favor the Dem's, particularly, other than the fact that they've fielded the only competent electable candidates for my entire life.
                                                                    Simple fact is, the Republicans gave us AS THEIR PLATFORM all the issues and problems that we are facing on a platter today. All the claims this week to the contrary, that somehow the meltdown is the fault of the Dems rather than the fault of sheister business dealings and consumer fraud by major corporations made possible only by the deregulatory policies of the GOP, is poppycock.
                                                                    Obama is the only real candidate in the race, simply because he hasn't been sucking the arse of the GOP for the last thirty years. Heck, McCain gave them tongue for the last 8 that they've been blatantly STEALING OUR MONEY HAND OVER FIST. If you believe otherwise, you're either stupid or brainwashed, because we've WATCHED THEM DO IT.

Unfortunately, its a bit of a Pyrrhic victory. While I am certain Obama will win in November, its almost like winning a chance to swim in Shark infested waters. Nothing any leader can do right now can stop the pain. We're in this one for the long haul.

I know he will bring some positive changes to government. The fact is that he will have a Democratic majority in both houses and this alone should make matters easier for getting things done. Only the Roberts court will be a problem.

                                                                    So much like Bush who preferred to disregard the warnings of the Clinton administration who provided proof of bin Laden's intentions. The paper passed by the CIA to the Bush Whitehouse was similarly disregarded.

                                                                    Now it's McSame who declares the same nonsense. He would rather be president than save an American soldier.

Secondly, it's common knowledge that every poll will tighten before an election. If anyone actually studied politics and Polls, the month before every Election Polls tighten. Given the race was fairly close, I am not at all shocked. BUT what we must look at is the Electoral Map. Right now Obama has pretty much locked up 264 electorate with Ohio, Florida, Colorado, Nevada and VA consistently leaning more his way. Obama needs 1 state with 5 of the 7 swing states leaning his way. McCain needs to sweep them all. The current Odds put McCain at around a 12% chance of winning now.

Worked together sure but guess what, Ayers is not in jail and a Professor. He's not exactly seen as a terrorist. He's seen as a well respected man of society in Chicago where he consistently fights for the lower class. Now I'm not condoning his violence. I'm merely saying the man Obama has associated with was not the man he once was. Obama was 7 when Ayers was blowing up sh**. Obama hardly helped him. Instead, he joined with him on a board of people where Ayers was among the group. He then worked with a well respected Citizen. Why is it ok for McLaim to associate with Keeting or Palin to use her influence to railroad a man out of a job OR for her to illegally avoid paying taxes (A federal crime) and not Okay for Obama to know a man who chicago loves and who isn't being investigated for a thing any more. And who has won the Outstanding Citizen award or some such.

                                                                          Neocons like to paint one picture, the ugliest imaginable but the facts are, there are two stories and I find the truth is far less gruesome as the Neocons would lead us to believe. I'm tired of the Negativity. I'm sick of the fear mongering politics. At this point I'd vote for a Clown if he made me smile for once. Obama is a Harvard Law Grad. Graduated Columbia. First ever African American to lead the Harvard Law review. He is a brilliant man with a vision. He may be inexperienced but so was John F. Kennedy and He's rated one of our all time best Presidents. So go ahead Neocons, lie about or manipulate all the facts you want. Bottom line is this, unless a miracle occurs for McLaim, Obama is your next President. All Hail the Chief. President Obama. May God show him a bit of favor in the brutal Job he'll have.

They could not charge him again because of double jeopardy laws. The other people who were with him were charged and sentenced though, he just got lucky.

If you check your facts, the time he spent as the president of the Harvard review, he never wrote a single word. So much for being a brilliant man with a vision.

                                                                            "a man who chicago loves"

                                                                                And Obama's political career began in Ayers living room. That is fact by the way.

                                                                                But Obama didn't know this guy or had any idea who or what he was? Come on folks. Either Obama is lying or he is a naive idiot. Which one is it?

                                                                                And since then, Obama has worked with Ayers many times and never denounced him even once. Even after Ayers said things like he wished he had blown up more buildings and people too.

                                                                                So CNN cleared Obama. Big deal. They are biased too. CNN did not even report on this at all until the NY Times broke liberal ranks and ran the article.

It seems mr obama was far more friendly with this home terrrorist than he would like us to believe. It seems that Mrs palmer never arranged the comming out party for obama at ayers house. It seems that mr ayers and mr obama arranged this party. He also was the overseer of funds for mr ayers radical scool teachings. He dealt out 50 million dollars to various schools that taught radical teachings put forth by none other than mr ayers. How can you trust anything this man says. He lies about everything. Dont know ayers, didnt hear wright? What is wrong with this country if they elect this man.

As long as the media continues to stand behind and support this kind of corrupt behavior. The media is going to choose our next president for us, by misguiding and brain washing the people. Obama will win because of that. How do you like the fact that the media has control over you like that. It's all wrong, but hey, there's a bigger power force in play here that we have no control over. This country is SCREWED. Corruption and greed at all levels is going to destroy us. It's already happening, I'm afraid were headed for a major train wreck in this country!!!

Its really funny that so many commeters said Sarah memorized the answers. All I saw last night from both candidates were memorized answers. They each had a list of things they were going to say no matter what the questions were. Maybe it would be better to have an open free for all with just the two candidates going back and forth with each other.

Most of you are so far in debt because you can't count or keep a check book. You can have your Oboma, but bet me you will regret it by the end of his first term. If I offended anyone, dam the truth really hurts.

Oh yeah, they are the ones paid to game the sytem to promote the canidiates of the rich, for the rich who own all the american media.
