I went into watching this debate firmly in McCain's corner. I was dissapointed. I thought Obama won the debate. I thought Obama weathered every punch McCain threw at him. I liked Obama for admitted that he agreed with McCain when he really did. I thought McCain did himself no favors by never even looking at Obama. To me it made him seem scared to confront him openly. I did not like the way McCain seemed to be blaming our financial problems on earmarks and spending. That is a problem but definitely not THE problem. What's more I felt Obama more than held his own on foreign policy and I liked that he would be willing to strike where Osama bin laden was at even if in Pakistan. All around I feel that Obama came off as more in touch with people. Believe me, going in I wanted McCain to defeat him and make him look bad but that didn't happen in my opinion. I think it was a big win for Obama among independent and undecided voters as McCain seemed to play to those who were already on board with him moreso than reaching out to those who might not be.
