New thread. Movable Type is being spazzy tonight.

McCain can't say Ahmadinejad. They also both said "Republican Guard" instead of "Revolutionary Guard." Offsetting penalties.

Whenever Drama Queen McCain is attacked, he hides behind a veteran story.

McCain is losing his shpadoinkle.

Americans from coast to coast ought to be terrified by a potential McCain presidency. The way he's throwing down on Putin isn't the temperament of a peace-keeper. It's the posturing of a war-monger.

McCain hasn't once made eye contact with Senator Obama. The way I was raised, that shows a huge lack of character.

10:55PMHad to jump away to write a quick reaction for the Huffington Post.10:57PMHey -- why didn't Senator Obama say all of the things that Andrea Mitchell wanted him to say? What's wrong with him?11:01PMAlex Castellanos thinks it's okay for McCain to have mispronounced the names of two world leaders during the debate in which McCain was supposed to rule the school.11:15PMThere's just no way this debate was a tie. Now, of course Senator Obama won't get a huge bounce -- then again, that rarely if ever happens. But this was a different Senator Obama than the one who debated Senator Clinton. Senator Obama was smart -- not just on the issues, but on the strategy -- the ebb and flow of the debate. He knew when to stick and move and jab. This was clearly an Obama win.11:25PMSoledad O'Brien and a focus group coming up on CNN. Oh boy! A completely pointless exercise!11:29PMCNN "phone" poll.Who won...
