Neither candidate had a knockout quote to remember for the ages and neither candidate made any major gaffs. Will be interesting to see the polls in the coming days to see if any independents have changed their minds or made up their mind based on the debate.

Agreed. The debate made good points for both candidates, but to there respective constituents. I don't think either person pulled anyone from the other side. That said, I thought it was a good discussion. It was interesting watching CNN after the debate trying to spin it in favor of Obama. I think only two "experts" on their panel said it was a tie. I was surprised that Obama didn't look "better", I was expecting this expert speaker and there was quite a bit of "ah, ah ,ah, ah..um um um". McCain looked like..McCain.
