debate=two participants

that was my overall feeling watching the "debate" last night- it was as if two people gave lectures and there was so little interaction. actually i watched a rebroadcast after yummy sushi dinner. plug, plug.

i agreed with the many pundits who found mccain's straight up ignoring of obama ridiculous. i agreed that obama let mccain run over him a few times w/his inaccurate verbal steamroller and i felt an overwhelming desire to throw up my hands and say 'eh'. i don't know anything about technically scoring debates but it did seem to me a tie in the sense that both men presented themselves firmly though no one's argument really stood out.  mccain came off as very dismissive and obama seemed frustrated many times.

i hardly ever agree with analysis i read in the washington post but their summation from last night was about as accurate and objective as i've found.

november 4th cannot get here quickly enough.
