his incredulous look and "zero?" was just to lend doubt to his base about Obama's Health Care Plan. He knew his comment would be challenged.

I think this played very well for Obama. McCain looked struck. When it happened I knew it would be the best moment of the debate and I hope it gets played over and over.

7. McCain was pasty white with a hinge of lip gloss ... |
|
On a 60" plasma - McCain really looked drained of color. He had that "Baby Jane Hudson" look about him.

Did anyone see the Batman vs the Penguin debate KO ran on Countdown last night? Lord, I found that amusing for some reason.
"Who's the Batman always hanging out with? Criiiiminalssss!"

11. Each time I watched this, I thought McCain looked |

honestly surprised and then I watched the info sort of drop into his brain for a resort and it looked like he was thinking, hey, who told me my policy was better than this guy's? I've been duped!
"Zero? I want That One!" that's what it looked like to me.

He's like zero!! huh? I liked how he got baited on the special needs kids assistance that John will freeze too. McCain doesn't even listen to the words that come out of his mouth.

18. Of course the MSM isn't giving it its due... |
|
but THAT was the true soundbyte of the evening. That is what will be remembered, at least to those who were truly paying attention. Obama handed him his @ss on that one. He had made this clear in the last the debate and McCain exposed himself for not listening and paying attention. McCain is incapable of keeping up. I am not certain if it is age setting in (no offense to the older and wiser posters amongst us but, hey, it happens)or if it is his stubborn refusal to listen to "the enemy" but this moment was a brilliant indicator of how efficient John McCain will run the White House. Can you imagine him pulling this nonsense while conducting foreign relations? How embarrassing.

20. McCain was going for that 'Gotcha' moment, but got it handed back to him! |
|
:rofl:
McCain tried the 'Gotcha' in the other debate, but wasn't listening - hell, no one in his campaign was listening, I guess.
