I watched the debate last night and it was terrible. The format was aweful, the primary questions were not very good, and Brokaw was obviously fighting a losing battle to keep the rules, although I have to give him credit for having far better follow-up questions than the previous two debate moderators. Neither Obama nor McCain impressed he as having a good performance. McCain looked his age, and spoke in fuzzy generalizations, and Obama looked like he was trying harder to put down McCain than connect with voters, which should have been a main goal at a townhall. I was just glad there were no mentions of Keating or Ayers.

The most (only?) interesting point was when Obama called Russia's behavior "evil" and McCain sort of agreed.
