Do people actually vote for who they think will win in the debate, or just who they are going to/would vote for anyway?

I'm gonna be pessimistic and say that McCain makes a comeback and wins the debate, mostly because that way I can only be pleasantly surprised. :P

If he doesn't, however, I can't say any feasible way that McCain could win this election unless terrorists strike another landmark and a bin Laden tape shows up with him telling the American people that he's endorsing Barack Obama.

This debate is crucial for McCain's campaign, but I think Obama will win by just playing it cool.

Anybody watching the real-time reactions from Dem, GOP, and Indy watchers on CNN?

I think the Republicans are in a good mood today, because they seem to be giving both McCain and Obama their best reactions, strangely enough.

It would be awesome if McCain and Obama get into a heated argument resulting in McCain getting a stroke.

I can see that McCain is trying to be aggressive, to fight back and make Obama look bad, but he is doing it in a very bad way, just repeating the same thing over and over, never making nay new points even after Obama explains to him why he is doing it.

There really isn't any point to this debate. They will say the same thing they've said the last two debates. And they don't ask good enough questions.

So I'll watch this until South Park comes on.

...And McCain's mostly doing the same thing.

I like how both candidates basically completely ignore the question every single time it's asked what they're going to cut. :P

EDIT: Oh hell, not this planetarium business again.

McCain fired back in a pretty good way when the moderator told him to answer the question. He really fired back and was pretty direct( kudos to the moderator for pressing McCain to give examples, though)

Notice how men always favor McCain more than women? What is up with that?

Also, who noticed the green line at the top of the screen for like a FREAKING minute for McCain? It is on CNN btw.

How does that chart on CNN work?epayps2

CNN has a group of 'undecided voters' in a room with a dial they can turn when they hear something they like/dislike.
