This is another unscientific online poll but from a source without an obvious bias. While I realize it will surprise no one, I think Senator McCain was the clear winner of the debate.

It was a tie. So's this election. Don't you really, truly get the feeling it could go either way at this point? Five weeks....

Veterans for Obama

The group Veterans for Obama has just released a batch of ads featuring "The Next Generation" of combat vets from the wars in Irag and Afghanistan to counter John McCain's never ending claims that he's the only candidate who supports or our troops—and that he's the only one our troops support. In the spots, the vets themselves offer McCain a healthy dose of much-needed reality. Check out a few after the jump.


And here's one from Virginia Veterans for Obama:

There are 3 ads

McCain does not have the record with Vets that he says he has, he is exploiting these troops by continually lying about them.

Where on the internet are they gathering questions for the Oct 7 "town hall" style debate? Anyone know?

Do we know yet if the candidates will be provided with questions topics before the debate?

So, what question would you submit to the two candidates?
