Obama v. McCain Debate


Obama v. McCain Debate
Originally uploaded by redking
So the results are in and here they are (according to CNN - who do seem the most impartial source; trying to find a neutral and representative sample)

54% said that Obama did the best job in the debate,
30% said Sen. John McCain performed better.

64% had a favorable opinion of Obama after the debate, up 4 points from before the event.

51% had a favorable opinion of McCain after the debate, unchanged from before its start.

A majority said Obama seemed to be the stronger leader during the debate, 54 percent to 43 percent,

65 percent to 28 percent thought Obama was more likable during the debate.


"McCain's advantage on leadership shrunk from 19 points in September to just 5 points this weekend, if Obama can use this debate to convince Americans that he is a stronger leader than McCain, he may be difficult to defeat."


Advantage Obama then... but as Chris Rock said " It's like boxing. It's not enough for the black guy to beat the white guy; the only way he can be certain of winning is to knock him out."

And with so many 'rigged' electric voting machines out there that's never been truer
