Debate Watch

So let me start off by saying that I honestly was not looking forward to the debate watch since I had a lot of homework to do Friday night because I was traveling away on Saturday all day for a rugby game... but I actually left the debate feeling glad that I went.
Since I've never voted before, I really have never been too interested in the actually platforms of the presidential candidates of the past. I feel that attending the debates gave me a better idea of what each candidate stood for, rather than just applying their stereotype of Democrat or Republican.
I was kind of turned off by Obama, only because he kept calling John McCain the wrong name, and to be honest I think he was only doing it to insult him and make McCain look unimportant to the viewers. I could be wrong, but it just made me look at Obama slightly differently.
Overall though, I am glad I got to experience my first true debate watch with my fellow Bonners, and I am actually not dreading the next one!
