There seems to be some confusion about who won last night’s presidential debate.
In my capacity as Final Arbiter, I shall clarify.
John McCain won. He won strong.
No need to thank me. Just doing my job.

I never try to answer that question, meaning, who won a debate. The winning is all in the votes on Nov 4. Still, I enjoyed rooting for McCain last night. He did a good job. I wish immigration had come up though. That’s a big issue which should be a big issue now. We should be talking about it.
Here’s something I wrote yesterday for what it’s worth:
What I want to hear from McCain tonight (and maybe I’m just a committed conservative) are all of those domestic social issues we haven’t talked about for weeks. I want to know McCain will handle illegal immigration and border security well. Fox News had a horrible story about Mexican marijuana growers poisoning our national parks last weekend. McCain could talk tough on that; I’m sure Obama would dodge it. I want to hear McCain call Obama’s tax plan socialist. I want to hear how Obama and Ayers work in Chicago schools did nothing for improve grades and laid a foundation for making those kids radicals (as I understand it). I want to hear about the importance of interpreting the law as it’s written and a segue into voting for conservative, moral congressmen. I want to hear about a culture of life, how faith-based community work will not be hamstrung by regulation, and more than anything, how Americans are exceptional people because of their moral vision and commitment to excellence.
Alas, if McCain had talked about immigration, I don’t think he’d have said anything that would have made us happy.
That issue is not on my list of reasons for supporting him.
Yes, but I want it to be an issue. It’s important, and I haven’t heard Obama say anything on it. I could guess at his position, and I hope McCain has changed his a bit.
