[QUOTE=YAWN]people cant learn from their mistakes?
or perhaps they are looking at the issues at hand and choosing appropriately with what they feel is best for them and the country?
nah why would people ever vote based on those things. im sure all the traditionally red states will just vote for mccain just cause hes a good ol boy from the grand old party[/QUOTE]
anyone wanna take a shot at a legitimate, coherent response?

[QUOTE=SoCalMike]im not sure i get what you mean... can you explain??? thanks!
:pimp:[/QUOTE]
the poll numbers they get come from literally calling people up.
there are a ton of restrictions on calling cell phones for stuff like that so almost always they ignore them.
as more and more people get rid of their land lines, its harder to get accurate numbers.
the problem is exacerbated by the fact that mostly people under 40 are the ones getting rid of the land lines.

perhaps but there is no real way of knowing. its not like i don't know several young McCain supporters. I live in uptown Dallas to be fair, but still.
Plus, hate to say it, but the youth vote has never been known for actually getting out and voting en mass.

Obama couldn't have done better. He's really convincing in how genuine he comes across. Thats if you aren't already extremely right sided to begin with. There is no way you can say hes a bad candidate for Prez, only in policy differences. As a person, communicator, and just educational credentials you couldn't create a better candidate.
Mccain just seems out of touch to a degree. Obama came back strong on everything he said. Mccain knew he was getting beaten in relaying to the audience and i think thats why he was so insistent on getting his turn. And when Mccain tried to knitpick Obama he did it with blatant exaggeration like in that attacking Pakistan comment. I mean anyone could see the obviousness of what Obama just said, and then what Mccain turned it into. Just really bad comeback i think. His jokes and pettyness came across as bad also.
The fact that the after polls are even close in terms of debate success just goes to show how partisan most people are, even the ones that pretend to be independent/undecided :rolleyes:
