    McCain just explained it. you can't make businesses pay that much tax and expect them to keep the jobs in US. now Obama is making **** up.

    What??? So giving them a tax cut will encourage them to give that money back to the masses? Yeah right!

    But you can give them tax cuts and expect them to share the wealth? OK.

    Giving $5,000 in a health care plan is very misleading. I hope people see through that.

    Why does he want them to talk to each other?

    That doesn't exactly work.. you end up with two people talking over one another.

    it's kind of awkward to try and talk to each other though. i mean, it always feels like they should be talking to "us" so turning to each and other and having a conversation seems awkward and i don't think either really knows how to work it in.

    but this seems a lot more interesting than the previous two elections' debates. they actually seem to be getting into it instead of just trying not to screw up.

    i hear too much trade protectionism in Obama's ads lately. i absolutely don't agree to that. closing the door to the rest of the world isn't the way to do it. at least, i have not sense that from McCain much so far.

    30 minutes in, I'm unimpressed with either candidate so far.

    don't like the mccain's idea of a spending freeze... completely unrealistic.

    agree on most part. McCain is kind of expected, but i thought Obama would be more articulate.
