Debate Cacaphony Part Deux

After the first presidential debate I provided links to an absurdly wide range of opinions on who won the debate. This time around I've found it harder to find spinners touting a huge McCain victory. Opinions remain somewhat varied, however:

Susan Page: Sharp Tone, No Gaffes




Dick Morris (numbnut extraordinaire): McCain needed KO and Didn't Get it

Harris and Vandehei: Worst Debate Ever

Financial Times: Short on Spectacle... And Anything Else

Adding to the pile, my opinion is that Obama mopped the floor with McCain. Obama was eloquent, calm, empathetic and quite presidential. McCain, on the other hand, seemed angry, weaselly, and a bit desperate. It wasn't a knockout but Obama still earned a decisive victory in my book.
