Clearly neither candidate won any converts tonight. The partisans will claim victory for their boy. Yawn!

Quote from ZZZzzzzzzz:
I repeat for those who are Past Insanity, Obama said he would go into Pakistan to get Bin Laden if we knew where he was and if Pakistan was unable to do the job.
Do you understand what a conditional statement is?
Quote from IShopAtPublix:
There is a wonderful principle known as balance of power. Projection of power beyond your (natural) borders is an ever more expensive endeavour.
Russia while in many ways a backward country has a lot of nukes. It can't be treated the same as you would Kazakhstan. So Condi running around like a headless chicken say how she will "punish" russia was utterly moronic. Russia is a petro state which while in the long run is bad for the time being it means it is self sufficient. US has no business caring about Ukraine or S Ossetia it is expensive and foolish and most importantly unsustainable. Don't you think it looks funny how US is sending 1billion to Saakashvili and borrowing it from chinese while US banking system is under sever stress?

I think that John McCain won this debate. Obama Body language said everything, he was lost, angry and sometimes nervous.
MCcain beat him with the phrase
This is the typical. Talk the talk, walk the walk.
Quote from Pa(b)st Prime:
And his conditions make his statement less lunatic?
His rhetoric on Pakistan is counter-productive.
Support for Al-queda among Pakistanis is at it's lowest ebb since 9/11. Obama's comments will be big news there AGAIN today only complicating relations with a populace that's slowly moderating.
