I was watching the debate on CNN and clearly the people who were scoring the graph don't want to hear anymore personal attacks from either candidate. The lines went consistently negative each and every time the men said something negative and personal about each other...this negative tactic may have worked in the past...it doesn't seem to be working nor even welcome now in the backdrop of the very serious financial problems staring at us now.

The other part that is different from Bush is that these attacks are coming directly from the candidates, not from surrogates/527's. Bush could always remain above the fray.

I tried watching the CNN thing with the graphs and it drove me crazy!

Remember that those people were hand-picked by a liberal news organization for a desired outcome.

I think next debate, if McSame keeps attacking, Obama would do well just to totally ignore them.

I saw the same thing.
