Oh no, Obama's dodging the first question!

And the CNN radar is crazy loving it, unless they've changed how it operates since last time.

Edit: They have!  And now it's super-useless.

"Cronies"

The indies seemed to have tuned out of his answer after that word, and only came back when he went positive again.

Obama's use of "not surprisingly" re: correcting McCain's history didn't go down great either, but the audience seems to give him more leeway for passing negativity.

Obama is not answering the question.

...and McCain does, yet the audience has already decided to not like him much.

..."that one"?

McCain really doesn't care for Obama, does he?

McCain's response was really, really good.  Obama's is better.

I think it's amusing how the women went up when Obama was saying "we've gotta stop genocide", while the men stayed flat, and the men suddenly went up when he said "there's a lot of cruelty in the world, and we can't help everyone".

Lol. Gotta love heartless men. Smiley

Damn, that's just what I was about to post.  Ha.  nice one.

McCain still has a very good chance of finishing strong, especially with an answer like this.

Obama is not finishing very strongly.  He needs to win on the next question.

Buzzword of the day: "Petrodollars"!
