I have no idea, Obama was asked about Georgia/Russia and went in to bio-diesel, Clean coal, wind power, and solar power.

McCain was the one who brought up offshore drilling. And it would be nice if he actually looked at Obama once in a while. It's getting rude.

THat's what I keep picking up on as condescending and perhaps racist or treating him like an insignificant young upstart. He doesn't respect him at all

The polls over the next few days are going to be fascinating to watch........

Which networks are you all watching? Will be interesting if we can share the views from the different networks as to who won this debate.

I am watching MSNBC, was going to watch PBS because of the commentators, however they haven't said a word, so I haven't changed the channel.

McCain mentioned the biggest reorganization of government since 9/11--by which he means the Dept. of Homeland Security. DHS is a mess. It's a joke.

I'm watching cspan. No commentary. No pop ups with commentators opinions on who is winning. No reactions from audience viewers.
