[Drunken Irishman]

40% say Obama won, 22% say McCain won, 18% say a tie.

Obama wins nearly across the board, except with foreign policy, where he BARELY lost to McCain.

15. Anything that's not a blowout for McCain is good for us.

We were expected to lose--by and large, I think, it was a wash. If anything, Obama held his own on foreign policy, which was supposed to be McCain's strong suit.

16. They polled 500 undecided voters from across the country.

Obama is more trusted on the Economy.
McCain is more trusted on Iraq.
Obama wins the overall debate.

17. But he KILLED McCain on the economy question.

It was like 66-40, or something like that.
