Clearly, nobody came out a winner in the first 2008 Presidential Debate- even the ladies from The View agreed. Since none of the candidates stood out, as a draw- many say that Barack Obama wins by default.
According to the Associated Press, Democrat Barack Obama has an 8-percentage-point lead over Republican John McCain — he has 50 percent to McCain's 42 percent — among registered voters, according to the latest Gallup Poll daily tracking update.”
According to the New York Times, “Mr. McCain’s campaign actually declared victory as early as 10 a.m. Friday, hours before the debate took place and even before he had agreed to take part in it. In what aides said was a mix-up, The Wall Street Journal posted an advertisement on its Web site 12 hours early that showed Mr. McCain proudly looking into the distance. “McCain Wins Debate!” read the text.”
How could a campaign declare victory 8 hours prior to the actual debate? Or far before he even agreed to participate in the debate? Are these papers objective or are they taking sides? People then wonder why the Wall Street Journal is so conservative.
The debate on Friday night was boring and in conclusion; whoever that was voting Republican will still vote Republican and whoever that is voting Democrat will continue to vote Democrat.
