As of 11:30PM...

Who won the debate tonight?
A. McCain - 86%
B. Obama - 12%
C. Undecided - 1%

I didn't think the debate was that clear-cut... but I guess for most Fox News viewers it was.

Drudge and WSJ's online polls are both pretty similar where as CNN is split almost the same numbers but for Obama. I think you're just seeing a growing divide in where American's get their news because after this campaign it's going to take a while for ANY news source to really be seen as neutral again.

CNN.com has the same numbers but in favor of Obama

I have to admit that watching McCain shuffle around the floor was painful to watch. He looked every bit his 72 years of age. Scary!

I think Obama won the debate hands down.

I was surprised b/c the Fox News text votes for the Palin/Biden debate were consistent with the results of the other networks.

You said it! It's funny (and a bit annoying) how I have to click back and forth between CNN or MSNBC and Fox News in an attempt to get a more balanced approach to news. Maybe I should just stick to CSPAN, hmmm....BOOORING!
