      I don't know, I'm a little mystified on this rating system.
      As to your first comment, It seems we are more divided in more ways than ever with this election cycle. I was still somewhat disappointed that we didn't hear more that we haven't heard over and over.

        McCain FINALLY said it, "I am NOT George Bush", etc. I almost fell out the chair. That was the highlight of the debate.

        The "rating system" is quite a bit skewed in Obama's favor. You could see it on the panel at CNN last night after the debate, David Gergen especially as he commented that the poll numbers are skewed. He stopped short of saying that the polls are invalid. If he would have said that then he wouldn't be invited back to CNN/DNC.

          He may have said it but he hasn't shown us where he is going to be any different. And that is what he needs to do.

            Sure he did, you must have gotten up to cook some popcorn or something. Seriously, it was the highlight of the debate, even the democrap pundits said so on CNN, a very big point in his favor especially with the independants. Obama was way too laid back like an old stick in the mud. Also, he failed to answer (successfully) the ACORN topic. But in all reality it doesn't matter as the economy is the topic, not the mud slinging. Even tho I'm for the McCain ticket I think it was improper to bring up the Ayres issue. Both candidates have to reach out to the middle class a bit more and stop all this nonsense of "did too", "did not" crapola.

              So, enlighten me, what is he going to do different? His economic plan is just a continuation of what we have seen for the last 8 years, his health plan is the same as the one Bush outlined in his State of the Union speech 2 years ago, his policy toward the war on terror is the same. So what is left? Change the name on the door, that's about it.

          Maybe because the story isn't biased and inflammatory, the commenters are nice people and there's not the usual name calling and bias. Could it be? - - - but - - - nah!
