Did the debate change your mind?

[SimNut]

After seeing and hearing McCain and Obama debate, did you change your mind on who you support?

[UnderseaLcpl]

No, they both still suck. Barr in '08!

I waste my vote proudly!:smug: :D

[JHuschke]

:arrgh!: Still McCain mate, they both suck but there is no better choice than him.

[CCIP]

No impression on me, really. I'm even more disillusioned with McCain than I expected to be though, he's really getting on my nerves with hammering his character into people's minds - it's getting old John. It worked well at the convention but it's really wearing out now, and you can't keep talking about how good a guy you are to win a debate.

Obama has bigger teeth than I thought, but he's biting in the wrong direction and not taking enough of a bite at McCain either.

So, :down: for both so far.

[Zachstar]

I agree. Tho I think Obama won slightly which translates into a huge victory because he denied McCain Massive victory in an Important debate. (Obama is viewed as somewhat weaker on foreign policy)

What will it mean in November? Depends. However, I doubt McCain will gain ground over this debate.

Yet I think Obama screwed himself with his "I agree" crap. If you agree with something then saying "Like" or just repeat it. He came off very weak on those remarks and denied himself a huge victory which would have greatly increased his chance of the presidency.

TWS Exclusive: Kissinger Unhappy About Obama

Henry Kissinger believes Barack Obama misstated his views on diplomacy with US adversaries and is not happy about being mischaracterized. He says: "Senator McCain is right. I would not recommend the next President of the United States engage in talks with Iran at the Presidential level. My views on this issue are entirely compatible with the views of my friend Senator John McCain. We do not agree on everything, but we do agree that any negotiations with Iran must be geared to reality."

Dangit, I gotta stop this political stuff.:lol:

Good catch sir.

I don't think these debates will sway the majority of the voters. I think that the majority already has made up its mind who they are going to vote for.

However, there is a slice (I guess about 20%) of the voters who still have not made up their minds. It is for these people these debates are aimed at.

It would be interesting from people who are honestly undecided (as opposed to those claiming to be undecided in order to make a political statement) what they thought of the debate.

[MothBalls]

It changed my mind.
