I only watched the last half hour. Pretty boring. I'm going to ignore all the post-debate bullshit for the most part...to me it came across as a draw. Obama put in his usually strong, intelligent performance, and McCain was surprisingly strong given the flubs he's been making all week. McCain's main tactic was to keep harping on how experienced he is and how inexperienced he thinks Obama is...but Obama scored a lot of points, particularly on Iraq and the economy. Really I don't know how a truly undecided voter will take this- obviously if you've already picked your man, you're going to think he came out on top.
Many people are noting that McCain was pretty openly displaying just complete contempt for Obama. Wonder how people'll take that.
