Agree as well. They both made errors, they both warped the truth a bit. I believe McCain was correct on a few positions that Obama was not (Pakistan, Afghanistan, Surge, Russia, Achmad, Castro, Chavez). Obama was good with the "I never voted for the war" (thought that bus has left the building), Focus on AFG (though he is still wrong on so many levels). And Kissinger came out today stating that Obama put words in his mouth and that McCain was correct.

Pretty close. Both should be fairly pleased with their performance. I don't think either really caused any seirious damage.

First round = draw

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. ~John Buchan

I find it interesting that you talk about the Surge in the past tense, when all those troops are still in harms way.
