ABC Post-Debate Poll

Who do you think "won" whatever that was?

McCain won

A vote for Barack in this poll is the only way to tell ABC that their hacthet-job was a failure.

Does anyone else feel like it was a hit job? Or am I being too sensitive?

Yes and yes

"The Crowd is turning on me!" Gibson said, as the program ended and they cut to a commercial.

I hope they are ripping him to shreds like a pack of hyenas.

Anyone who DID NOT WATCH this debacle!!!!

Hey, I won!

Given all of the commentary here (and the fact that I'm 99.9973% positive that I won't miss out on any substantive debate during the 26th go-around) I think I might save this for after Hillary concedes. I can picture it now. Big bowl of popcorn. Sounds like the way to go.

I feel like I just spent the last two hours having my soul sucked out by whatever those things in the Harry Potter series are called....anyway, enjoy the knowledge that you aren't getting ready to throw away the next two hours of your life.

I'm jealous!

So Stephanopolous was taking notes from Sean Hannity yesterday on what questions to ask? Specifically the Ayers question? ABC is now a surrogate of Faux News?

Blatant gutter journalism. Negligent for ABC news to pump anyone, I don't care who it is, with 40 minutes of straight offensive innuendo.

Wouldn't want it to happen to Hillary, McCain, anyone.

Well, this was one more stroll down a laundry list of rightwing(-ish) low blows of this campaign. Obama won, if only because he survived these stupid questions. Was ABC just too bitter to cling to intelligent conversation?

Pretty damned lopsided toward Barack Obama at this point. Nice to see, but I'm sure demographics have something to do with that.

Can you explain what you meant by "Im sure demographics have something to do with that"??

I do not understand what you meant.

Hillary Clinton draws from an older demographic, voters less likely to be online. The opposite is true of Barack Obama.

To further clarify, it has *something* to do with difference. The totals are so lopsided that it couldn't be the only factor.

I just went to ABC's website. They actually have a story about Clinton's "Screw EM" remark referring to working class whites. So they definitely had this information. Yet they somehow failed to raise it in tonight's debate?

ABC is fulla shit.

It was a hit job, pure and simple.
