Poll Results Suggest More Uncommitted Voters Saw Obama As Debate Winner

Posted by Brian Montopoli

UPDATED WITH NEAR-FINAL NUMBERS CBS News and Knowledge Networks conducted a nationally representative poll of approximately 500 uncommitted voters reacting to the debate in the minutes after it happened.

Thirty-nine percent of uncommitted voters who watched the debate tonight thought Barack Obama was the winner. Twenty-five percent thought John McCain won. Thirty-six percent saw it as a draw.

Forty-six percent of uncommitted voters said their opinion of Obama got better tonight. Thirty-one percent said their opinion of McCain got better.

Sixty-six percent of uncommitted voters think Obama would make the right decisions about the economy. Forty-four percent think McCain would.

Forty-eight percent of these voters think Obama would make the right decisions about Iraq. Fifty-eight percent think McCain would.

We will have a full report on the poll later on. Uncommitted voters are those who don't yet know who they will vote for, or who have chosen a candidate but may still change their minds.

The margin of sampling error could be plus or minus 4 percentage points for results based on the entire sample.

TP, no one can live exclusively in the private square or the public square.

Just because you allow your opponents to be whatever they want in private doesn't give you the right to impose your values and your values alone on the public square.

"Tolerance" then becomes a liberal game ...

If groups enforce their prejustices on the public square the it is no different than a gang of thugs intimidating non members.
