dbk, I am just responding to JPs worthless post with one of my own. Both have about the same value.
Henry Kissinger believes Barack Obama misstated his views on diplomacy with US adversaries and is not happy about being mischaracterized. He says: "Senator McCain is right. I would not recommend the next President of the United States engage in talks with Iran at the Presidential level. My views on this issue are entirely compatible with the views of my friend Senator John McCain. We do not agree on everything, but we do agree that any negotiations with Iran must be geared to reality."

As a broad generalization, voters tend to trust democrats more on the economy, and Republicans try to beat them by making people vote on a foreign policy threat instead.
There are exceptions - Americans did not trust Jimmy Carter on the economy, regardless of the facts (e.e.g, Ronald Reagan starting us on the road to huge deficits).
The facts of record unemployment, record inflation, and record oil prices?
Where he routed Obama was on economic and spending questions as he repeatedly accusing Obama of using earmarks and wanting to spend too much.
Here comes loki, the perpetual Devil's advocate. Punching McCain in the gut and slapping him in the ass at the same time.Originally posted by: loki8481
the idea that someone would read HuffPo as anything other than a joke makes me weep for the state of humanity.

See what the pollsters say tomorrow. It won't be McCain on top.Originally posted by: sammyunltd
McCain EASILY WON this debate. It is not even arguable.

Hardball follow-up on he McCain "no look" policy:
Checking a crowd outside the hall:
McCain didn't want to acknowledge his presence, thought Obama didn't belong on the stage with him.
McCain was embarrassed (though she didn't say why).
McCain didn't want to look at Obama so he didn't lose his temper.
As I said above, random Mississippi crowd comments.

Just as I said - Kissinger is misrepresenting Obama's position as being about *presedential* talks with Iran, but both times it came up, Obama indicated otherwise.
The question is VERY clear. Would YOU as in President Obama.Question:In the spirit of that type of bold leadership, would you be willing to meet separately, without precondition, during the first year of your administration, in Washington or anywhere else, with the leaders of Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Cuba and North Korea, in order to bridge the gap that divides our countries?
OBAMA: I would. And the reason is this, that the notion that somehow not talking to countries is punishment to them -- which has been the guiding diplomatic principle of this administration -- is ridiculous.
