A little bit of clapping here as the candidates enter.
Is it so hard for McCain to look at the camera? Obama was much better.
"Americans are going to lose their credits." McCain, what does that even mean?
So far, McCain on the defense. His tie was a bad choice. Hurts my eyes.
The Alaska crowd thinks the DNA of bears would be just fine to study.
They groan at McCain's comments.
Obama is kicking his ass!
Its so perfect that the financial market is having trouble now. Makes the arguments about health care make perfect sense.

Lots of claps when Obama pointed our that we are spending $10billion a month on Iraq (was that the right figure? Something like that).
McCain brings up climate change.... Has he talked to Sarah about that?
When McCain said he has a maverick for a partner-- that got a huge BOO!
"we are winning in Iraq." really, McCain? No one here believes you.
Very powerful when Obama said "we must use our military wisely"
straight into the camera.
Obama- "you were wrong.. you were wrong.... You were wrong." awesome!
Obama perfect on the troop funding question- we have a difference on the time table, not on troop funding. Makes McCain look childish.

Okay, one bad thing. Obama seems a little too annoyed with the "you don't know the difference between strategy and tactics."
McCain playing into continued Bush-style secrecy of government - "you don't do that, you don't say that out loud" (about military strikes
into Pakistan." wait-- you don't do that, or you just don't tell people?
Obama is good at dismissing the procedural type votes or actions that McCain brings up.
Okay, McCain made a decent point about legitimizing Iranian president, but then to say that also implies we agree with him? Stupid.
McCain keeps saying "Obama doesn't seem to understand..." that rings hollow when Obama looks so damn smart.
McCain does sound okay when he talks about visiting other countries. What will Palin say when Biden says the same stuff? "Oh, my mom and dad didn't give me a passport, I just had four babies?
1hour 22 minutes in
Okay, this is okay. McCain says "we have a safer country, but we are a long way from safe." I disagree, but he sounds okay.
How is sacrifice that has happened in Iraq (of American lives and dollars) lost if we leave Iraq? McCain doesn't make any sense.
How can McCain bring up experience when he picked Sarah Palin? Now he's really reaching -- comparing Obama to Bush. Totally unbelievable.
Oh- of course we couldn't finish without a POW reference!!
Everyone here is looking forward to the VP debate next week! I hope it actually happens. Can't wait to see Palin shredded by Biden!!
