McCain won the first debate

I am glad I voted early and have no regrets. Sen. John McCain proved he is a great leader by his performance in the first debate. Sen. Barack Obama agreed with McCain seven times, saying McCain is right on numerous topics.

Obama looked like the young clueless rookie that he is. He had textbook-prepared answers but no experience to back up anything he said.

McCain looked like the great leader and problem-solver he is from his years of experience. He answered the questions like a true veteran.

When it comes down to it, it will be President McCain in '09.
