Johnny Mac did well. I hope it was enough.

Browkaw declares Joe Plumber the winner.

Are the Wright ads out yet ...........

I declare that McCain was the winner in REALITY.

But the MSM will declare Obama the winner in their fantasyland.

Glad to hear the "McCain wooped a**" news. Time for the MSM coverup.

I wonder if Joe is hugging his wife too.

McCain Won big

Well that was a relief. McCain did well.

re: #2 Sharmuta

Browkaw declares Joe Plumber the winner.

Do you know how much business he'll get outta this? He's a B List celeb after this debate. 20 mentions!

re: #4 zombie

I declare that McCain was the winner in REALITY.

But the MSM will declare Obama the winner in their fantasyland.

And whine and scream about McCain running a negative campaign.

refreshing for comments

Damn, I hope they wanded everyone in that crowd. The Secret Service guys can keep their eyes on everyone at once.

If you aint cheating, you aint trying to hope and change.

Holy cow. I was scared, but glad I watched THAT.

Where was this McCain the last two debates?

A toast to all good plumbers.

mccain won.

Setting this one up...

Cue for all the posters with under 300 comments to start slamming McCain. On 3...2...1...Go

MY 8 YEAR OLD HAS AUTISM. . .SHUT THE FUCK UP! You have NO idea what it is like and FUCKING knock it off!

McCain surprised even me...he was really on top of it tonight.

re: #12 zombie

You're just saying that because of the people you often hang out with!

I couldn't face it this time. Too much OTHER stress in my life.

McCain kissed all the ladies.
Michelle wouldn't let Barry do that.

What's the deal with Kristol? He's so negative now.

Is Joe Plumber related to Joe Sixpack? Same guy?

We haven't heard so much about a guy Laying pipe since Clinton was in office

These talking heads are useless. They are now going to tell me what I just saw. I can understand somebody interpreting for the deaf. But it's like we don't have a brain.

McCain fumbled the ball a bit on Ayers, but he hit 0-bama pretty hard on education, taxes, spending, energy.

Obama stumbed, swung and missed.

The format really helped here. . .

Cnn is sh*tt*ng on the debate now.

I hate pundits!

re: #23 rw in san diego

You're just saying that because of the people you often hang out with!

If this is about his autistic vote comment. . .fut

Damn, I am sick! I never actually watch the MSM, and I'm watching it now for the first time in a long time.

Insane bias!

My mouth is hanging open!

They delcare McCain the loser already!

This was an all time yawner ... McCaine fought him to a draw ... and lost ...

The Fox team watched another debate, again.

MSM already calling for McCain, even on Fox

Thank you Johnnie Mac!

Not only did you shine tonight, but you forced the MSM to take a genuine look at O'bambam's ties to Ayers and especially ACORN. With ACORN in the headlines every single day lately, that is gonna leave a mark.

Mac did better than the last two debates, but he could have hit a lot harder. He's got nothing to lose now. He should go for the jugular.

re: #31 David IV of Georgia

Begala is an asshole

Going to the "undecided" voters for opinion.

How the *&%$ can anyone be undecided?
The bloody contrast between the two is Red, White and Blue, and just Red.

The Fox crew watched a different debate, as usual.

Given McCain's style, I think he did the best he could have done tonight and he landed almost all the punches in the available arsenal, I don't see how he could have done any better.

/there's still more work to do before the election, but then we all knew there would be

Nina Easton didn't watch the debate I did... Zero smoothly "lobbing them back"

WTF?

refresh

McCain won. But no knock out punch. Especially leaving Wright out of the conversation. I only hope the pollsters are as wrong as they were 4 years ago.

Couldn't get one comment in the whole night.

... after my first couple comments.

Is there a Hussein Plumber somewhere out there?

re: #27 Mich-again

Is Joe Plumber related to Joe Sixpack? Same guy?

No, but they're neighbors; Sixpack always borrows Plumber's torque wrench but never returns it.

I couldn't bear to watch. Instead I prayed my heart out. Tomorrow I head over to PA to held with the campaign.

I counted the number of times each candidate went "Um" "Uh" or "Eeah"

McCain: 29

Obama: 251

re: #20 Outrider

I have under 300, and I think McCain whipped Barry's butt!

Go Johnny, go!

Keep one thing in mind, Fox commenters:

Obama may have had an answer, but the answer was BS and now it's on the record as BS

Oh boy.... Frank Luntz...

I am not being sarcastic! I am serious! The autism vote is important! It is a new significant issue in America and a lot of people (like you and me) care about it!

Sorry if you thought I was being facetitious!

The people who care about Autism are an overlooked voting block. We're on the same side.

re: #35 rusty_armor

Go back to Kos-Land, Rusty .... sleeeep.

Wow CNN is calling this as a tie.

McCain must have beat up on Obama

Pinker-infiltrated focus group

thank you for showing up Mr. President John Mc Cain

McCain was horrible! Obama Won!

Just kidding... I didn't actually watch this one, but after reading some of these comments, I kind of wish I had.

Was McCain really better this time around than the last two?

frickin focus group.

Why does Fox keep bringing in Luntz and his Carnival of Morons? They are clearly Obama plants. I hate Fox just as much as the other networks these days.

Loved the first guy on Luntz ...... Obama sounded good ..... but I don't trust him ....he said that ..... I love it

On Barry: "He won the debate, but I still don't trust him."

Interesting.

I'm watching FOX and I think they are all underestimating McCain.

The so-called voters think Obama won? What morons.

Anyone watching Fox? Obama won? Obama was specific? When? Where?

/Luntz and his democrats on now. Feh.

Aaaaand, of course, Frank Luntz' "undecided" focus group on FOX goes almost entirely for The One, again... Where the hell does he find these idiots?

I've turned the TV off now. No need to see the pundits try to bullshit me into thinking 0bama won when he clearly had his ass handed to him.

My guess is the vast majority of Americans likewise have no need to be told by msm assholes what it is they just saw.

Uhm, HELLO! My two nephews are autistic, and I'm glad Zombie said what he/she said! It's time autism and all special needs children get someone in the White House who cares for them and will be their advocate.

And who the hell are you to tell Zombie to shut the fuck up?

Troll.

mccain spoke to the american public.
he was strong and focused.
now he has time to really win this thing.

These people being interviewed on Fox are morons

Wow. McCain showed up!

And so did Wayne Brady...oh, wait...that's Michelle Obama.

Wow. 570 logged on. I haven't been reading comments tonight, choosing instead to iron some clothes and watch on FOX. Without your input, I felt McCain did very well tonight, and I think that will transfer to many of my MOR cohorts.

Oh, crap. Here's Frank Luntz again.

Crap. Even fox pretty much says Hoover won.

I am not understaning your point here? I know what autism is like. Make a point instead of flying off the handle.

Obama...If you vote for me I'll fleece you for everything you have...that's a promise.

LMAO @ the guy on FNC.

"I'm not voting for best debator, I'm voting for President."

...WHAT?!

re: #46 steveoh

McCain won. But no knock out punch. Especially leaving Wright out of the conversation. I only hope the pollsters are as wrong as they were 4 years ago.

I remember the surprise of 1980. I hope to see that surprise once again.

re: #18 zombie

It's already starting.

Fox is part of it, aren't they?

The one time that I think Obama told a bald face lie was when he attempted to deny his vote on the infanticide bill. He said it was not true. These things are a matter of public record, and are not subject to spin.

Yup, "If you wanted to run against George Bush, you should have run 4 years ago."

And this was SUPPOSED to be Obama's strength, and he fell on his face.

Unfortunately, viewership tonight was probably lower than the first two.

Too bad.

40% of the people in the polling room raised their hands, and the leader said, "A clear majority." WTF?

Luntz is crazy if he believes his group is truly undecided.

re: #20 Outrider

Why you hating on the peeps who lurk? I thought McCain tore it up. He was fighting hard tonight. Loved it.

re: #6 Killgore Trout

I wonder if Joe is hugging his wife too.

Joe the Plumber & his Wife.

Be of good cheer Killgore, we live in momentous times.

It is good to be alive.

Those that come after us will envy us this time that we have.

re: #10 Fat Jolly Penguin

And whine and scream about McCain running a negative campaign.

To borrow from Winston Churchill: "Let them whine, let them scream, we shall come through."

Just because.

No, but they're neighbors; Sixpack always borrows Plumber's torque wrench but never returns it.

When all your tools are Channelocks all your problems look like nuts.

If I ever lied as much as Obama did tonight my mama would've washed my mouth out with soap.

Wow, I no that I'm a Republican and a McCain supporter but I thought McCain won this one. Really bummed that even Fox thinks Obama won. This is really weird!

Shit, are y'al watching the focus group? They say Obamajebus won the debate, but they still won't vote for him, except for Miss Code Pink in front.

Luntz's losers...time to turn off Fox.

re: #66 ArmyWife

Anyone watching Fox? Obama won? Obama was specific? When? Where?

Yeah, exactly. One of them thinks "He made a good point" about connect John with George. But he made NO point, he simply asserted it. McCain refuted it with his record.

Frakkin' undecideds, Palin unqualified.

And Barack is?

Moron's voting us into oblivion.

fucking ABC just blatently lied lied lied about AYERS and the launch of obamas career---ok but they did also just admit the 800k to acorn from obama,,,

did you just see the 'who won the debate' comment on FOX? raise your hand if you think Obama won...some raised hand. Commentator:

"Clearly Obama WON the debate"

WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT

PLEASE someone get a screencap of that. It appeared to me less than half raised their hands. Most of the comments from the people are PRO McCain...

I really believe that the McCain camp has got to come out with an ad that shows all of Obama's horrible associations - from childhood to now
(Davis, Ayers, Wright, Pflegler, Odinga, etc). There is so much information there that the average person does not know that I think it would really make a difference.

God these Luntz people are idiots

re: #14 Sharmuta

Most famous political plumber since Watergate.

I wonder if his mom was Josephine the plumber?

Don't watch the pundits, folks. It will only piss you off.

I am glad I watched, through my fingers at times, but I had my 10 year old with me, who is an INTENSE McCain fan. . .

He listened to Obama talk about his tax plan, when Obama said he was going to tax people to help people. Bibi looked at me and said- are people really falling for that? How is taking your money and giving it to others helping anyone but him?

I think I may be raising an Independent:)

Autism jokes nothwithstanding, thank you lizards for helping me through this- in my heart I know leaving the Democratic party was the rifht thing to do, unlike Obama, I will be facing the music for my "associations" tomorrow with my union steward, to assess my standing on the "important issues"

Did I mention I am a teacher?

re: #65 legalpad

Spin it around - then again the other way, You won't know what hit you. Now BHO is the winner. Now he's not. Next?

Luntz....joke. He's been pwned.

Abc radio says Obama was a cool while McCain came across as angry. And of course, nothing nice to say about McCain at all. Oh, they also said fact checker says he didn't start his political career in Ayers living room. Now I am hearing it was at a hotel or a rabbi's house. Where the hell did they come up with that?

re: #68 Siberian Khatru

Aaaaand, of course, Frank Luntz' "undecided" focus group on FOX goes almost entirely for The One, again... Where the hell does he find these idiots?

Listening to these morons is scary. They really don't know barely anything. Their answers never mention specifics.

I'm reminded of the Howard Stern interviews in Harlem from the other day.

Just a few minutes ago all the green pluses disappeared from the articles that charles posts, (ie. the Wrap up) where you can rate the article underneath the title - now they are all back - I don't know what that was about. I could see the red minus signs, but the plus box was an empty black square - Just FYI. Never seen that happen before.

And it was consistent for all the articles on this page.

Wow..what a suprise. Luntz-losers went of Obama

Sorry, read the Denis Leary comments today. . .off the rails. . .sorry, I am SO protective :(

The Luntz group:

Undecided my big, fat, white ass. I see a bunch of liars who wanted to be on the boob toob.

re: #98 RememberSekhmet?

Shit, are y'al watching the focus group? They say Obamajebus won the debate, but they still won't vote for him, except for Miss Code Pink in front.

Really? So they think he won but are not moved to vote for him. That's awesome.

The not voting for him part, I mean.

Complete insanity. Took about 90 seconds for Obama to be declared the winner by the MSM. My essay from earlier today vastly understated the case!

re: #98 RememberSekhmet?

Shit, are y'al watching the focus group? They say Obamajebus won the debate, but they still won't vote for him, except for Miss Code Pink in front.

If McCain wins via the Bradley Effect, I can live with that.

Obama is winding down from the debate. He's telling smaller and smaller lies. In an hour he'll be down to his standard fibs.

This will not survive a BHO administration.
