I do not care if you are Republican or Democrat, but the ad shown by McCain’s party are extremely edited. To know the truth, one must watch the actual debate and be your own judge. The ad presented in this post are basically saying that we are lazy and annoyance.

Look, I enjoy glancing browsing through HG once in awhile. I find it entertaining at times, but when you start to get in the politics and all you do is quite obvious, which is supporting the Republicans and continuously bashing the Democrats. I’m not here to defend nor attack any political parties, but you as the write/editor of HG, “Please leave your personal political bias at home.” If I want to read about political news, I will watch CNM.

You are doing a great job at entertainment, but politically, you make me SICK.

If you agreed with everything said here, you’d probably have a different opinion. We’re all Americans, even the half you don’t agree with.

Look I’m going to try to explain this in nice terms because I just think you’re a bit misinformed. Liberal democrats do not in any way watch fox news. I live in New York City, a relatively liberal place, and Fox News, accurately or not, is well known as having a conservative bias around here. As a result liberal democrats avoid Fox News like the plague. I don’t know any other way to describe it, but democrats consider Fox News to be a yellow journalism, a complete joke. But if you are so misguided as to think that other media outlets deliberately avoid releasing results or distort the polls they take, then there is no talking to you. You’re obviously demented. “Darn liberal media, always making my candidates look bad” Must be liars!”

***HG says***

Fox News has more viewers than any liberal media outlet, and their audience continues to grow, while the liberal media outlets continue to lay employees off because their audience continues to shrink. I’ve see the Fox News demographics, and their audience isn’t growing so fast because only Republicans watch it.

Pull your head out of the sand and look around. There’s a big world out there that you haven’t even seen yet.

Based on your own statement, “Liberal democrats do not in any way watch fox news.” You and your friends may not watch Fox, which is exactly why you have no grounds to form an opinion on Fox. Watch Fox, get informed, and then come back and comment.

@ #6.. “Fox news is the only fair and balanced news available and Dems can’t stand it” do you realize how you have been turned into a parrot? You notice you use the exact words they put in your head?

FOX news has figured out that the uneducated are happy being fed scandals, controversy and easy-conclusions over any type of think-for-yourself journalism. A complete disgrace to the standard news journalists should be held up to. It’s sad how far politics can damage a person’s integrity…

Anyways, I encourage any and all here to go watch the entire debate; I find it hard to conclude the same as HG is trying to lead others to believe.

What’s up with the attacks against Obama?! I hate how McCain is so vague. Anyway, not once in the election did McCain looked at Obama in the eyes. I don’t know about you, but when an opponent does not look at a person in the eye, it shows that that person is afraid. McCain would always talk straight to the audience, but never straight at Obama, even when Obama,a is looking at McCain. McCain is full of “it.”

check CBS, MSNBC, CNN, all their experts agree that obama won, not to mention all the polls of the respective news groups agree as well that obama won. i know you support mccain and all but as a writer you should mislead your readers with these selective facts that supports your opinion

I don’t where you got your poll results but:

Instant poll results. CBS polled 500 undecided voters. 40% said Obama won, 22% said McCain won, 38% said it was a tie. CNN’s instant poll of 524 voters had Obama winning 51% to 38%. MediaCurves had a focus group of Independent voters. 61% said Obama won, 39% McCain won. The Luntz and GQR focus groups also said overwhelmingly that Obama won.

McCain has the EXPERIENCE and the EXPERTISE to lead us toward better times.

Uhh, if you mean spending more lives and money at a war going nowhere then he’s you’re man. There will be no victory in Iraq, no matter when we pull out, noqw or in 10 years, it will crumble as soon as we leave. Mcain seemed very condescending by his “you don’t understand” remarks, it was like an old bitter man scared of new ideas talking to a kid, and he didn’t look at Obama once. Look if you want an old badger in the office, with no new ideas or ways to improve the U.S. then I guess John Rambo’s your man. I’m for talking with country’s that already hate us, which is the majority of the world and new ideas. Obama’s intelligence outways Mcains war gameplans. I thought Obama was great and Mcain was with the same ol’ drivel. All Mcain knows is war and unfortunately being a President you need to know alot more than that.

HG Good comebacks!!!!!!!!!!!!

Remember you can’t debate with pompous zealots.
Fox news is the only fair and balanced news available and Dems can’t stand it. McCain did well and could have gone more on the attack, but why beat a man when he is down. Obama did to much tucking of his tail. We clearly saw who the alpha male was in this one.

I really enjoyed this debate and came in trying my darndest to not be biased. However, after last night’s debate it is CLEAR that Obama is just plain and simple ALL talk and NO action.

Some people bitterly toss out that McCain was a POW veteran and are tired of it, but the FACT is that it plays a HUGE part in why he is the man for this job.

We are in the biggest economical crisis and people think electing an inexperienced man who has never led ANYONE is going to get us out of this rut???

McCain has the EXPERIENCE and the EXPERTISE to lead us toward better times. In a time where our enemies are fierce, I’d feel a HELL of a lot more comfortable with McCain than Obama.

And if the choice is still not clear, just watch the two of them. Obama may have a way with words, but it seems rehearsed and lacks heart. Watch McCain … every word out of his mouth is heartfelt and genuine. He really DOES have this country’s best interest at heart.

Obama did repeatedly say something truthful last night, and that was : “John McCain is right”.
