I only heard what I guess were the closing remarks (last 5-10 minutes) on the radio. From what I heard, I liked the vibe I was getting from Obama. He seemed more consiliatory while McCain came off as combative. I did not like McCain's attitude at all. If he's going to get anything accomplished as President, he's going to have to learn how to work with a Democratic congress. A combative nature isn't going to help this country. We've already had 16 years (Clinton/Bush) of extreme divisiveness, and I tire of it. Not looking at your opponent during the debate? That's just childish. How about a little cooperation ladies and gentlemen? Country first and all that. Anyway, that's my take based on less than 10 minutes of debate audio. Now to track down the whole debate to watch/listen.
Oh, one final comment: it is a bit refreshing this election that at least I don't detest either candidate.
