I think it was a tie. McCain was supposed to win this one, based upon the foreign affairs theme, so in a way you can say Obama gets the edge for NOT losing, but it was very tight.
I would like to be that alert at 72, but McCain is pretty creepy too.
McCain kept saying Obama didn't know what he was talking about, even when that statement wasn't true, but on the flipside Obama kept saying McCain was right, and that he agreed with him, which also wasn't good for his side.
McCain would not even LOOK at Obama the whole time, which was really weird, but again, I think McCain is another creepy weirdo, that we would learn to hate in no time.
The idea that it was pretty much a tie probably won't change much - the McCain people will still vote for him, and the Obama people will still vote for him.
The big difference, if this were the ONLY debate (which it isn't) would actually be the vice presidential selections at this time - Palin if McCain kicks the bucket from health issues - Biden if Obama is assasinated. Between those two I have to vote for Biden in a BIG way!
I was going to vote for Obama before this debate, and nothing has changed for me...
