Who Will Win Tonight's Debate?!?

Posted by Dan Savage on Fri, Sep 26, 2008 at 11:21 AM

OMG! The suspense is killing me -- I mean, so much hinges on this! I just wish there was some way to know in advance who won tonight's presidential debate!

Oh.

Although the fate of tonight's presidential debate in Mississippi remains very much up in the air, John McCain has apparently already won it -- if you believe an Internet ad an astute reader spotted next to this piece in the online edition of the Wall Street Journal this morning.

"McCain Wins Debate!" declares the ad which features a headshot of a smiling McCain with an American flag background. Another ad spotted by our eagle-eyed observer featured a quote from McCain campaign manager Rick Davis declaring: "McCain won the debate -- hands down."

Yep, and Dewey defeated Truman, too.

I thought it was a tie, but by dad (who's right-of-center) hated that McCain didn't look at Obama.
