Another win for Obama. Clearly. The best word to describe McCain tonight is "cranky."
Tonight had to be a game-changer for McCain. It wasn't. He was on the defensive most of the night and led almost every answer with an attack on Obama. He took swipe after swipe at Obama, but those attacks didn't work.
There is a stark difference between these candidates. Obama can be a president for the 21st century. McCain is mired in the past and has no vision. Obama gave intelligent, well-reasoned answers to the questions. McCain spent too much time launching his attacks.
Started watching CNN's post-debate coverage. The pundits so badly wanted McCain to do well....they still like their old pal. But, they know him too well to understand how badly he comes across. One of the worst things they can say about Obama is that he was professorial and wonkish, which means Obama is very smart. Be nice to have a very smart president.
Also, I'm over these undecided voters. At this point, a lot of them seem to want to be on t.v.
UPDATE: Hillary Clinton is the Obama campaign's surrogate on CNN. She's doing an amazing job....very strong and not getting sucked into Wolf's stupid questions. She looks great -- and sounds great. She's excited about working with President Obama...and she means it.
